Rainbow Picturesquare
Hello My Allys,
It is Friday! Weekend is here which means that holiday is just around the corner. How was your week? Did this week treat you well? Or It was a kind of week where you were pushing yourself to somehow reach Sunday? Well, if it does, let me tell you it is absolutely okay! Sometimes, there are days when you feel like that (And hey! it’s okay to have one, even I too have bad days!) Remind yourself that this is just a phrase, better days are coming! On such days, you know what I do? If I am at home, I take the bike and go riding aimlessly exploring new roads while when I am at work, I head towards my office terrace or for that matter I quickly walk around my office to explore a new place near by or simply just explore a coffee shop in my area. And Trust me, it makes me feel tons and tons of times better.
On one such day, I explored this Rainbow Square, a lil near my work place. It isn’t named as the Rainbow Square but I found it to be like one! So I call it that. Initially, I thought it was just another wall painted but as I explored this place I realized that it is somewhat like a square which starts from the Altinho Road and goes down towards the Boca De Vaca Spring Tunnel. (The story of this spring is coming up soon in my next post)
Just take the road heading towards Altinho, right ahead of the Consulate General of Portugal in Goa,
TIPS OF THE DAY
- Best time to visit this place is before 12pm or after 4pm.
- While you click pictures be careful of the vehicles in the area, this road is usually free, and so here, people usually tend to speed up.

Social Media DeTox
Hello My Allys,
Hope you all are doing well! It is Tuesday again and here I am. Well, you all must be wondering how can I make a statement like that, a person who is every week attached to social media always bring to you something different and hutke is asking you to have a social media detox.
When I first pitched this idea to my friends just to get a reaction from them. I realised smartphones have become an inseparable element in most of our lives. And to top the list is Social Media, that feature is used most of the time in any smartphone. Be it to watch videos sent on whatsapp, or just to scroll through Facebook or Twitter or Instagram. It has indeed become a part of our lives, the most addictive thing ever! Even if we aren’t texting anyone we are just scrolling through feed on Instagram or Facebook or Twitter. And when I say We, well I mean it as Me too. Yes, several times I too do the same.
Sometimes we think or say to ourselves that we will scroll through social media for just 5 minutes but end up sitting almost half an hour, only to realize you are already running late from to school, college or work.
Now, having a social media Detox isn’t difficult. You need to do it in the right way. We cannot avoid social media platforms completely as to how many disadvantages it has, it has several advantages too. It connects us to our friends sitting in one country to the other! While it also helps us to explore the world, while we stay connected to family. But as it is always said too much of anything can be dangerous.
Try to avoid using your phone atleast 10-15 minutes before you go to bed. You can either pick a book and read or else brush and floss too are best options at night, just before you hit the bed.
Secondly, avoid your phone early morning especially when you on the bed. Wake up, get to the nature admire the nature the leaves, flowers feel blessed and grateful for the countless moments the universe has given you.
Third, try to Unfollow people who aren’t your real friends, unsubscribe yourself from emails and most importantly delete apps you don’t use. Several times, it is because your phone blinked or the notification triggered is the reason that you went to your phone to check it, resulting into hours of scrolling through some other applications.
Try to spend more time in real with people, rather than on social media looking at someone else’s virtual world. Explore a place near by, visit/revisit an old friend, someone who you didn’t meet but there isn’t a single day passed without that person crossing your mind. Send flowers to that person! Who doesn’t love flowers? Send flowers and make them feel special. Gestures like these in the long run will make you happy! It is only when you are happy, you can make someone else happy! Its like a chain, when you make someone else happy, he/she reciprocates the same to someone else and then it goes so on! Ting!
Whatever you do, wherever you are stay happy! That’s all what I pray for you all! And of course I pray for one more thing that after reading this article, you will like, comment and share your views about social detox whether or not, this a need of the hour. Have a wonderful evening!
Boa Fest of Milagres Saibin, Pray for us!
