“Merits and Demerits for Fulltime Writers” - Professor M.S.Rao


"You have to write a million words before you find your voice as a writer." ---Henry Miller


There’re merits and demerits for writers and authors. Mostly demerits outnumber merits for novices.  You must know both before you want to take up writing as a fulltime career.

Here’re the merits: You can work at your convenient time and place. You can unlock your passion and write whatever comes from your mind. There’re many things which we can’t express to others and the same can be expressed easily through writing. There’re no boundaries.  You’ll be amazed to know your hidden potential and creativity once you start writing. Above all, you’ll earn name and fame if you do well.

Here’re the demerits: There’ll not be any regular income. If you are financially weak then it is more challenging.  If you’re married with family responsibilities and commitments then you’ll not be able to concentrate on writing thus doing injustice to it.  The market is tough and it is difficult to predict the tastes of readers as their tastes are changing rapidly.  You’ll also find people who criticize your work rather than appreciate your creativity and efforts.

Remember that you’ve to undergo tons of trials and tribulation and sacrifice a lot until you achieve success. Mostly you don’t find any light at the end of the tunnel. I’ve seen many writers who gave up mostly due to financial challenges although they had bags of creativity, imagination and passion.  But if things work out in your favor then you’ll hit limelight and excel as a legendary writer.  Hence, weigh all options before you want to pursue writing as a fulltime career.

“Bridge the Generation Gap through Empathy and Understanding” - Professor M.S.Rao


“Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will choose your rest home.” – Phyllis Diller


For most of the parents, raising children has become a major challenge.  They often compare their children when they were children to their parents, and boast that they were better than their children.  I often hear such statements from some parents.  I quickly remind them that those days were different from today. Presently children are exposed to media and technology, and they are better positioned than their parents in comforts and luxuries, and above all, they have high aspirations and expectations and want everything on a platter.  It is very unfortunate to hear reports of suicides by children due to silly reasons.  In fact, children don’t know the value of life. Most of the children often complain that their parents don’t empathize with them.

It is rightly said that providing reciprocal unconditional love of their children by parents is the best way to raise positive children in a negative world.  Remember that empathy and understanding is the key to bridge gap between parents and children. Parents must not compare their olden days as it was totally a different scenario.  They must not compare their children with others’ children.  Presently children have higher expectations and parents must realize and meet as far as possible.  The children must also learn to empathize with their parents for their compulsions and constraints.  When there is a right understanding between the parents and the children we can expect peace and harmony in every home. We can also make sure children growing in a healthy environment and becoming healthy citizens.
