Language is a type of expression or in a defined way, it is the method of humans communication in a conversational way. It can be oral or written as the only thing that matters that it should convey your thoughts. But, are we using our language in a way we wanted to use or in a way people wanted us to use? In this "Vogue" world we all just focus on using foreign languages as we think that they make us "elegant" and "millennium". This need to being "millennium" has kept us away from our culture of speaking " HINDI" the mother tongue of India.

There is no problem in praying to God but the problem is in the fear; I had the typical fear of getting extremely low marks or lower than my expectations. It was after my X that I realized, worshipping Exam results has expelled the true divine, Education, ...
