Suddenly, we were stuck with our thoughts staring at screens or walls.And that isolation turned up the volume of ...

सभी को नमस्कार। कहां से शुरू करूं. हर बार मैं अपने आपको एक होमवर्क देता हूं। एक वर्क है मेरे लिए यह कि क्या बोलना है आज। तो जब भी मैं माइक पकड़ता हूं तो समझ में नहीं आता कहां से शुरू करूं और कहां से नहीं। जैसे हम लोगों को आप बुलाते हैं या सुनते हैं इसलिए कि इंस्पिरेशन इंस्पायर होने के लिए इंस्पायर करने के लिए। लेकिन मेरा यह मानना है कि जरूरी नहीं कि किसी महान आदमी से या किसी सक्सेसफुल आदमी से या किसी सेलिब्रिटी से या किसी ऐसे व्यक्ति से ही हमें इंस्पिरेशन मिले। मुझे क्या लगता है ना कि आसपास चारों तरफ हमारे ...
