Value of the month Caring, celebrate with us!

Listen to the podcast on your favourite app.

My Good School Show Season 9, Episode 18, where passion meets education. This beautiful conversation where Anvesha delves into the value of caring and Rishona and Divisha share their take on Caring.

Rishona: Caring definitely does help others. When someone cares for you, you feel like someone out in the world believes that you matter. It is a feeling of joy and happiness for that person. Caring is shown out of friendship, compassion and selflessness. A caring classroom is where students feel positively connected to others. That simple act can give them a sense of optimism and help solve their little problems. And what is in it for us? How does it help and benefit us? Well, seeing one smile puts a thousand smiles on my face. The fact that I have helped someone out or just given them the joy they needed and filled in the gap in their life makes me happy. As said, never believe that a few caring people can't change the world; indeed, that's all who ever have.

Anvesha: Absolutely. Just as self-love is one of the most essential kinds of love, self-care is as vital as caring for others. If you cannot care for yourself, you will not be capable enough to care for others. Everything starts with you. When you decide to help yourself, you will also end up helping others. So, caring for oneself is as essential as caring for others.

Anvesha: Divisha, whom do you care for the most?

Divisha: I care for my family and friends the most, but yeah, I care about my friends a little bit more because in my family, it's just me, my parents and grandparents. Since they are elders, they can take care of themselves. But my friends are the people whom I have to take care of. It's been 7 years since our friendship. Many things change but one thing never changes: Them having problems, and I have solutions. The fact that I'm the youngest among them still I Am more mature.

Anvesha: And with that, we come to the end of our podcast. Comment below and let us know if you liked our podcast. If you want to be a part of similar podcasts, join us. We hope to meet you again when we return with a podcast on Caring next month. That's all for us today!

Being true to yourself means thinking and acting in ways that align with your values and feelings rather than the values of others. 

If you are living true to yourself, you feel confident in your identity and you are pursuing goals that you know will lead to your happiness. 

It is really important to be true to yourself it will be your guide to living a life for yourself. A life that is fulfilling and filled with all of the things that make you joyful and allow you to live a life of purpose, whatever that looks like for you. 

Hence, the only way to live your life happily is to be who you are, not caring what other people might think or say about it. 

People are going to judge you anyway, so you might as well forget society and be like others. But keep one thing in mind you have to be true to yourself at every moment of your life.

Is social media distracting us? - Sakshi Singh

Social media, a double-edged sword,
It connects us all, yet ties us to strings. 
In virtual worlds, our thoughts are muddled. 
In screens we're lost, our focus blurred.

Pings and constant calls

Distracting us from life's moments, big and small.
Scrolling boundlessly, time slips away.

Likes and comments, we crave them so.
But are they worth the time we hold?
In this online crowd, reflect and find a harmony where you truly belong.
