Sahaj Sabharwal is a 17-year-old poet from Jammu, India, who has received numerous awards for his poetry at various levels, including state, national, and international. He has been recognized at events such as the International Writers Meeting in Tarija, Hungary, and has received distinctions like the International Diploma in Writing and certificates from the Young Writers Association in the UK. In his writing, he addresses the issue of simple living individuals being targeted for mockery by others in social settings. He observes that these calm and simple people often become the subjects of jokes and ridicule, as bored individuals seek entertainment at their expense. This exploitation stems from the calm demeanor of these individuals, who do not react aggressively but internally suffer from the insults. Sahaj offers several recommendations for those who are simple and calm-hearted: they should distance themselves from those who mock them, seek out genuine friendships, prioritize their self-respect, assertively address their mistreatment, and conduct themselves in a manner that minimizes the chances of being ridiculed. His reflections emphasize the importance of self-respect and awareness in social interactions.
