Uncommon sense – It is easier said than done
The mental health issue has been a concern for some time now. Even after getting the intermittent attention it occasionally gets, its grip on our society’s neck continues at an unimaginable rate. Often, when the issue of mental health is part of the street discourse, it is just in general terms. It is simply minimised...
Uncommon sense – Small talk – A new fashionable trend
For some, social media may just be a platform for leisure or something to help pass the time.

Uncommon sense – Ha, ha, ha
In the midst of our troubles and dark times, it is often hard to see the light side of life. Not because there is no light or is invisible, but simply because we tend to choose not to see it. Often, this happens because in the darkness, we are likely to get some attention and...
Uncommon sense – Slowly, but surely
One of the most beautiful things about life in general is its mystery. Even when we may tend to think we have done and seen it all, the next morning may bring us a surprise. Again, even after that, our limited human condition may make us conclude that this one event is the surprise of...
