Books that inspire

So well said the Nobel laureate Ernest Hemingway that there is no friend as loyal as a book. Books are those good friends that not only are loyal but also inspire you to become a better person. Reading books increases your vocabulary, command over the language, improves thinking power and gives you enormous ideas and emotions. It is so that the publishing industry has taken a big shift in the last decade. While fiction ruled the literary world earlier, recently writers and publishers have shown interest in publishing inspirational books for readers. Be it America, Europe, Asia or Africa, inspiring books are being published all over the world much more than before.

Love for Autobiographies

Ever since I was a small child, I have had loved stories. Where in the initial days I loved folktales told by my grandmother and mother, with time, my interest moved to the real stories of great people. Autobiographies , as people call them. Since then, I have read many books on people who have changed the world. Benjamin Franklin, Steve Jobs, Nelson Mandela, Adolf Hitler and many sports stars as well. But what I have loved the most are the books written by people themselves. What would be more interesting – someone telling you what good or bad happened in someone else’s life or someone telling you what drastic happened in their own life? To me, frankly speaking, the latter one is more appealing, so I buy autobiography every weekend. Every Sunday, I wake up with a thrill to start a new autobiography and don’t put it down till I finish it. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, nothing matters when I have a refreshing book in my hands. Like this Sunday, I was reading Seasons of Hope: Memoi

The Punjabi Diaspora: Spreading Wings Around the World

A diaspora is a scattered population whose origin lies in a different geographic location. In particular, diaspora refers to involuntary mass dispersions of a population from its native territories. Likewise, Punjabi diaspora refers to the descendants of ethnic Punjabi personalities who emigrated out of the Punjab region to the rest of the world. One of the largest ethnic groups in both the Pakistani and Indian diasporas, the Punjabi diaspora numbers around 10 million, mainly concentrated in Britain, North America, Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Where Punjabi personalities have a big role in India's GDP, they have a big role in every country they have moved to. They have been accepted by the native people all around the world because of their lifestyle.
