    Let us flip through the memory album and pick up the gems

    It is a fluid situation now in ISC. But there is a slight relief that forum section is going to be kept open. That is a cheering news for most members especially the members who are more active in forum.

    Let us take this a small respite to go back see how we all fared in the past.

    Partha videthis 2017 thread provided one such opportunity. It will be interesting and even nostalgic for members to go through the various thread referred there.

    Here through this thread also I request members to go back and select a couple of threads which they still remember and consider as good or best in their postings. It will be nice if they can say why they consider it good or best.

    I also request the members of ISC to mention their best forum posts (5-10) and provide the links. If the members do this, then around 100 beautiful forum posts can be read at the same place without searching.

    After seeing this thread I have visited 'My threads'. Only the first three pages were visited and the following are selected at random. Probably other members may find them satisfactory.
    1. A biased judge will deliver wrong judgement only
    2. Never shout, think of improving your argument abilities
    3. If possible help others, but never harm them
    4. Which of the two is more important? Wisdom or wealth
    5. Sustained efforts will yield the desired results

    It was a nostalgic experience to go back to our old threads. Keeping in mind the thread by Partha under reference in mind, I have selected some threads, from among the few I posted, which I think are still fresh and good-

    1. Are we really connected
    2. One wrong answer actually suggests ignorance of two right answers
    3. Should we enjoy being original writers rather than relying on technology
    4. Should critical thinking be one of the important aims of education?
    5. How strict must be parents to their kids

    To be frank, I am feeling a bit guilty seeing the number of threads I posted in the past few years. Waiting for the new version of ISC to do better.

    I am mentioning some of my relatively recent Forum posts which have given me immense satisfaction as a writer. Some of these have received many responses but some have failed to attract the attention of members.

    (a) Vellayi Gopuram
    (b) The villagers including the headman
    (c) The boy came back
    (d) A Timeline of Israel: We must know the History
    (e) One aspect is least discussed
    (f)Even in his death, the Gandhian educationist remained different
    (g) Ten beer-guzzling men & Taxation system
    (h) Three trained camels (in three parts)

    The above list is not exhaustive.

    In this regard on this day of Vijayadasami/Dussera, I would like to recall my article on Navaratri , which I posted in 2011 just in the first quarter of my joining ISC.
    Navaratri- nine night divine festival of India- legend, significance, customs and celebration

    On my search, I discovered a real gem from my creativity- a post which surprised me and made me ask myself how could I come with such a piece. The comment by late ISCian SuN in his response is a proof of it. I would like members to comment how they feel about it now.

    As I have a problem in sharing links I could not do so.even opening links also mostly not happening. But opening your article on navratri and on ISC is opened and read them. Really it is interesting to read and always when we read later something will make us to feel like that. Anyhow happy to share one such happened in 2011.

    I was going through the old threads and find some of them interesting.
    One example is -
