Why should anyone seek our advice or, who are we to decide fate of others? There have been many instances where a few friends have come to me seeking advice. I, in most instances, suggested they see/seek answers within. One reason for doing this is people will do what they want to do. In sort, …

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, …
pressure
How much pressure is the current generation going through? The expectation to ace at school, the race to be at the top. I find myself to be lucky not to growing up in the era of the internet and smartphones. It seems like a mad, mad world and, everyone is rushing to ace at everything. …
optimize
There is no one way of building your company or living a life. It all comes down to choice and how what you are leaving on the table. Or what you are optimizing life for? What is the overall purpose? Over the last 3-4 years of my own journey, after souls searching, reading, talking to …

simple
I am trying to read fiction more these days. I find authors writing style my reason to read or re-read them. From RK Narayanan, Khuswant Singh, Satyajit Ray, Gorge Orwell to Ernest Hemingway. I find they are writing uber-simple in a free flow. These are some folks I enjoy reading again and again. There are …
journey
How much do we think about the past? The journey and co-passengers. I know a lot of us die with it. I also know many swear by the stories, epics. When we dwell in the past, we become miserable or happy. We don’t see what’s there to offer us in the present. The reason being …
walk
The sky had dark clouds painted over it. It could rain at any moment. But for a kid wanting to meet his grandma, how much it mattered? My grandma lived in our ancestral village by herself. It was not big of a deal to take such walks. We had no such traffic back then and, …
hate
How can we hate someone or something so passionately that we end up hurting ourselves? I know few people who can go at any length to see few others failing. They will go at any length for the same, even if it affects them: personally, professionally, physically, or mentally. Our life on this planet is …
