More Power to Awais!

Earlier this week, a video surfaced of two women degrading the manager of their high-class café Cannoli. The two women, named Uzma and Diya, are seen demeaning their manager of nine years, Awais, who is not fluent in the English language.

The video starts with the café owners stating they are bored and then calling their manager to interview him. Diya - one of the owners, introduces him by letting everyone know that he is one of the oldest employees at Cannoli. 

The ladies criticize Awais's eloquence in the English language and embark on the number of courses he has taken over the years to learn English. Awais, on the other hand, stands quiet at the other side of the camera. 

Being fluent in the English language is not something to flaunt to make others around you feel belittled. If its education and high-class status that you boast, and it cannot teach you how to treat people, it is useless to acquire such pitiful possessions. Speaking English does not mean one can depreciate those who cannot or choose not to learn the language. 

It is, needless to say, that it is remarkable how Awais has worked for nine years at Cannoli, as the manager, with such people around. More power to Awais!

Your Authority Does Not Make You Superior

Credits: Jot It Down By Aina The human urge to exert authority is far greater than his value of morals. You can quite literally sense a sharp-witted, quintessential authoritative individual from one who is under the authority itself. When you talk with someone influential, you ought to do so with respect because you are made aware of their prominence.  You are helpless right now; had you had the authority, you would turn the tables, won't you? That way, the way they are inducing problems for you, you would do the same to them, even worse if conceivable. Now that is authority. The way an individual is treated strictly according to their authority in unreal if you look at it; how you feel a commitment to well-wish someone in command, and the need to brush off anyone under you. I reckon this post is very much but a proper one, but I feel the need to put this out, to however much of an audience I can.  Just because you have power over someone, does not mean you own them. Authority is l

An Unusual Passion

Everyone has a knack for doing something they admire and strive towards, and being a music critic would be an uncommon ardor. A music critic is a person who is professionally engaged in the analysis and interpretation of works of art. Whether it is in a foreign language or their own, people tend to keep an opinion about the art they listen to. The discography of an artist is the combination of various styles, genres, instruments, techniques, composition, layers, and ideas that are used to produce an album or single by the artist. Bound to the boundaries of my home due to the lockdown amid the Coronavirus, I stumbled upon BTS' music, and to say the least, I was mind blown when I discovered the making of their art. BTS's breakdown of their music got me into the art of criticizing music. I was keen to choose the analysis of music as a passion as I habitually interpret the music I listen to. An example of an artist making me discover something new is when I got to know SUGA's s

Adversity and loss make a man wise.

Adversity and loss are the challenges that life brings to us, it is the response of human beings how they handle themselves in such situations. Picture credits: @/kilarov345 on Unsplash The precise qualities of the head, heart and hand can be acquired only through struggle in loss and adversity. In times of difficulty, we gain wisdom more swiftly than in prosperous times. In adverse conditions, one can either flee or face up to the problems and deal with them and, the sagacity comes from the experience, observation, trial, error and the counseling of others. Adversity and loss bring out all the qualities in a man; qualities like patience, self-reliance and humbleness, prove to be a much better school than success and prosperity. Success and ease make a man futile. C an a fighter enjoy the victory if the opponent is weak and broken? He falls prey to comfort and does not fight for real happiness. Loss and adversity not only make a man reach the pinnacles of his glory but also bring him
