Tarannum Tanha

Since Childhood, I was a dreamer. I always dreamt to be someone who I wanted to be and do what I liked. Maybe that’s why at this stage of life, when people are running after conventional jobs, I’m working hard to add a little to my writing skills every day. The hunger to know new things, research and then apply them to writings attracted me towards content writing a few years back. Creativity seems like the most interesting thing to me, that’s why I keep engaging myself in co-curriculum activities more often. I always look up to my parents who never failed to motivate me to do something different. They’re so much inspiring and supportive that I can overcome any failure in life. They always taught me to be a good human at first, who would never indulge in any wrong deeds. I learned a lotin life and for me, being honest is the best gift anyone ever gives to himself/herself. And this is the thing that pacifies me at the end of the day that no matter, whatever happens, I try to be honest. Travelling is my most favourite hobby after photography. I often take photographs of nature as there’s no impurity in nature. Because of my father’s job, we have stayed in different places and met many people. And so I’m fond of meeting new people and places from a very early age. Every individual is so much different from each other, even if they’re connected by blood – that was kind of fascinating to me, don’t know why. Besides traveling and photography, I like to draw things or more specifically, I just love doodles. Even earlier I used to dream about having a house where the interior would be wrapped in doodles. Dreams do not cost, so why not having pleasure by thinking all these, right? After all, life is all about trying to be happy! But obviously, one shouldn’t only daydream, rather should work hard every day to get them materialised. Walking in that way, I don’t know what the outcome will be, but I believe in “No risk, no gain”. And I strongly believe that Life is totally worth it!
