Unnecessary pressure


Pressure is sometimes a very effective one. It pushes us to where we want to reach. It energizes us and motivates us. It makes us remind that there is something left to be done. Many of us want pressure to be there to do something. That is the reason we always keeps things for the last moment. Studies, we would always wait for the last two weeks to start studies. We think that its only way that makes us to do things. This has been set in our minds since childhood. 

On the other hand pressure sometimes kills us. It gives unnecessary headaches and makes us sick. In pressurize times we tend to be very nervous and normally things go wrong even if we try our best to make it right. Sometimes things get delayed as we are always in a rush and things go out of our hand.

Is pressure good for us? Does it motivate us? I know most of us would give a very diplomatic answer as “A moderate level of pressure is good for us.” I think even the doctors says the same thing. Here I am not going to debate on this topic but rather the pressure we that we have to avoid in any circumstances

Local Council Election..........



This would be the three words that you would hear very often these days. The whole country is busy campaigning for their candidates. People do debate who is good and who is not. Everyone is planning for something great. Registering for the vote has begun. Election commission is really busy to make this a transparent one. 

All the parties want to get their majority and show that they have the public support. This is at core between the two biggest parties i.e. MDP and DRP. Everyone asks their members to win the election. Phone inbox is getting full of those messages. Everyone is asking to vote them. But then you can only vote for few.

In my island there are 13 candidates running for the council election. 5 from the opposition party 2 from the ruling party and 6 independent candidates. Even though these six candidates run as independent they are being labeled as from some party. My island is very much divided into two parts yellow and blue. Both the parties are asking to vote for their candidates. 

I however would not go to a specific colour. This election is the most important election concerning specific to our communities. The effectiveness of the council would mean so much development in different fields. We would want a council fighting for our rights and development s rather than being into so much politics.
