The Art of Disappearing

Self-isolation has always been my go-to when I need a breather. Like, I don't mind hanging out with people and all, but there are times when everything just feels too heavy, you know? It's not that I'm avoiding people or anything, it's just that I need some me-time, ya feel?

There's something kinda nice about disappearing, you know? It's not about running away or anything like that; it's more about finding a place where I can just be by myself. It's like a little escape from everything and everyone around me. Sometimes I just want to ignore the world and everyone in it, you know? It's like my own little bubble.

Disappearing helps me keep my sanity and emotions in check. It's not easy with everything going on around us all the time, you know? But disappearing gives me the chance to recharge and take a step back from everything. It's like a break from reality, you know?

When I disappear, I can do whatever I want, you know? I can read a book, take a long walk, sleep, or even just chill in my room. There's something liberating about not having to worry about what anyone else thinks or says.

Embracing disappearing has taught me the importance of self-care and being true to myself. It's about knowing my limits and setting boundaries, even if that means stepping away from everything sometimes. Disappearing helps me recharge and reflect, so I can show up as my best self.

Yeah, I disappear a lot. And it's totally okay. In fact, it's kind of necessary for my mental and emotional health. But underneath all that is a deeper desire: I want to be found. Not forgotten or abandoned, but seen and understood.

Sometimes it feels like I want to run away, but really what I want is to be seen. Not forgotten, but sought after. To know that someone out there gets me, that I'm not alone.

"Sometimes you think you want to disappear, but all you really want is to be found."

So even though it might seem like I'm running away, what I really want is for someone to find me. To rescue me from the darkness I sometimes feel trapped in and show me the light. To make me feel like I'm not alone.

I've lived with disappearing for a while now, but I hope that someday, someone will find me too.

A Constitutional Analysis of the Maharashtra Special Public Security Bill, 2024

By Bhavya Ved Parihar, 5 th year Law student The recently enacted Maharashtra Special Public Security Bill, 2024, by the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, aims to address the threats being posed by allegedly "Left Wing Extremist organisations or similar organisations." The aim of maintaining public security and defending against extremism is constitutionally legitimate. But the means adopted here in this act are seriously constitutionally and legally questionable. Legally, more so in the view of constitutional law as well as of civil rights, the Bill is objectionable. It is characterized by vagueness, overbreadth, excessive limitation on fundamental rights, lack of procedural protection, and undue vesting of power in the executive. 1. Vagueness and the Principle of Legal Certainty One of the characteristics of a minimal requirement of a just criminal justice system is that the law itself should be clear and not ambiguous. The Maharashtra Bill, however, employs the undefined ...

A Beginner’s Guide to Pakistan’s State and Society

Image
Introduction: The Central Tension Formally a democracy, the Pakistani military remains in the driving seat for most key decisions. Much of the country's politics can be explained by this ongoing tug between elected institutions and military authority. This primer provides a compact mapping of contemporary Pakistan, detailing how the government is actually organized, what the rule of law really resembles, and the principal social problems it confronts. 1. The Structure of Government There are two parallel overlapping spheres of influence in the way Pakistan functions: the constitutional, civilian framework; and the informal, highly powerful military establishment. The balance shifts over time, but more often than not, it is the military that defines the outer limits of politics. The Formal Democratic Framework On paper, Pakistan is a parliamentary republic in which the Prime Minister, as chief executive, has the mandate to govern.  The President is the formal head of state, but his ...
