Importance
Our sufferings are interlinked with externalities. In short, on things or circumstances which are not in our control. Our human mind and our ego seek validation, holds grudges and unmet desires. In most of the occasion, it puts importance on externalities. How many days and hours; we have wasted on what others would think about […]
disconnect
Masterpiece requires sincerity, dedication, and a lot of focus. It requires a complete disconnect from the noisy world or society which thrives on making news. Most geniuses spent time most with themselves; they enjoyed being with themselves, their idleness and solitude. They avoided distraction at all costs. They had a few close aides they spent […]
Creativity
In the previous post, I wrote about the routine, schedule of famous writers, painters. Now I am playing a devil’s advocate: Do we need a timetable for creativity?

imperfect
We are all imperfect in our own ways. But does that mean we have no rights to live? Who has defined right or wrong? Was it not one of us? Who has defined the rules? Was it not one of us? Why can’t we all co-exist? Why is there a label attached like color, race, […]
