Why are we so attached to our loved ones? So that their demise or parting off leaves a vacuum in our life? Can we not live in reality, knowing nothing is permanent? Can we not be rational and live a life without attaching ourselves to someone or something? Can we not live in a moment …

matters
What matters to us depends on how we see the world. What matters is our attitude. What matters is how true we to ourselves. What matters is our peace of mind. What matters is the company of close friends. What matters is the believers out there to hold you when you fail. What matters is …
nostalgia
I spent Holi, the festival of colors, after a decade at my hometown. The days with mom-dad made me wander in the past. I watched kids playing with colors, throwing balloons at each other, and laughing. It felt very nostalgic. I could see 20 years younger myself participating with that crown, laughing and dancing, and …

Some get angry, pensive when in a group, family, relationship others start getting all the focus and importance. On the scale of narcissism, one does the destruction. If you are or people are you …

actions
Do we not own our actions? Why do we have to blame others for our failures and success all through ourselves? Why can’t we accept our mistakes and learn from them? Is it more to do with our ego?
scar
I was with a few friends over dinner last night. We all were talking about subjects from work-life balance to managing a team. One thing was common: everyone has gone through the battle and has a scar. Life is not easy for anyone: be it an employee, founder, or investor. We are all fighting our …
checklist
Sometimes I wonder if we are living my own life. It is like enabling someone else checklist. It is like running fast and, it seems there is no end to it. Is this how we humans live? Is consumerism or it is society? Or is it we who is responsible for this? Are you living …
