  • In the vastness of the ocean lies an undefined innocence. The deeper you dive, the beauty becomes evident. The depth of innocence is beyond an understanding that the more evident it becomes, you are at bliss. This year, I was in Kannur, a coastal town in the southern part of India. I was on vacation,…

  • I love silence. It allows me to think. It is not the chaos that makes me think. I attended numerous meditation classes, had even read online articles on this subject. And, they all say the same thing – We dwell in our past and worry about our future. That is true. We are all living…

  • A new dawn begins, With the Promise of a new being, For the spectre of the yesterday is lost. Does this mean an assurance? I say not by prejudice. Because this is a new dawn And we are not dreaming, not a mere promise. Because, it is a feeling. Nature beckons us Take the stride…

  • Being overwhelmed, an abhorrent case for many often leads to a palpable malady. Some say, being overwhelmed is an emotion, whereas, for most of them, it is a sign of depression; as we continuously oscillate between what is true, and whether we can relate ourselves to that truth.

  • Ever since I came back from the curse of the Writers Block (I’d prefer saying, after being ejected from the damned clutches of unproductivity) earlier this year, which was sort of a paradox, I had written 13 articles on a trot. Im not superstitious, but, the infamous number 13 had halted my progress. Maybe for…

  • The Internet is filled with so much gibberish about a Writer’s misery that discourages you to stop writing, rather than, penning down a few words and keeping your adrenaline pushing. We are aware that it is the mind and not the actual words (on the Internet) that create the pain. Even in the case of…

  • We all wish there was a Genie in our lives, who could fulfill our wishes in multitude. Life would have been so easy, isn’t it? But, being in a fantasy world and experiencing the chaos of real life, are two different aspects of a human life. In a lifetime, we collect too much earthly garbage…

  • I wake up with my hands between my thighs, and waiting for the morning sun to say a ‘hello’, realizing nothing much would happen other than just another day to pass-by, I feel I could do something better. Waking up, I realize that something special is coming up fast. It would be a New Year…

  • In motion lies our lives, through happiness and sorrow, We are, but, mere expressions traversing on an escalator, That leads us up to what is called, a destination. On the top lies a stair of bright glow, reminding hope; Amidst the other stairs of darkness and strife, This stair on which the sun ray illuminates,…

  • It is a funny feeling when you are encountered with the same situation more than once. You think (or shout out) aloud saying – I have been here before. The situation could be anything, whether you are visiting the same place twice or maybe even experiencing a Déjà vu. But in a deeper conversation, I…
