As contradictory as it sounds, I find new beginnings very nostalgic. In a way it makes sense as every beginning in a way ends something old. And for someone who is not good friends with pragmatism…change is always bittersweet.
After 3 months of hectic lifestyle and exhaustion (defined as the inability carry your own body from [...]

Goodbye Leisure.
Goodbye to the “just 15 mins more” excuse before waking up.

Goodbye to gossiping with mom on gtalk.
Goodbye to breakfasts with Saif while watching “Mad about you” episodes.
Goodbye to five minute hug-fests before he finally left for office.
Goodbye to enjoying my company all by myself.
Goodbye to [...]

In the nook of our minds, we have a box. This box holds our first- time memories. It has two compartments. In to one goes all the happy, affirmative memories and the other holds those memories….I won’t call them sad…but those which make us wise!
There is something about the first of things. The first [...]

It was a ghost of a town. In fact all there was to it were two filling stations, a small restaurant and a great history. In the morning mist it almost looked surreal to our sleep hungry eyes.
We were on our way to Grand Canyon and we had driven all night. We stopped for [...]

As I approach the end of my saga of weekend train travels..I am realizing that they have become a part of me…the times spent in the company of strangers-awkward glances…shy smiles exchanged..nosy questions…and the privilege of watching life speeding by from the insulation of a speeding train’s window!
Now I am more alert…more intent on not [...]

We are but a collection of the experiences we have…the memories we build and the beauty we bring along!
Sometimes..I think that there is nothing in this world called “ordinary”. As long as I am alert and observant, I always find something new to tickle my senses…ideas to questions my beliefs…and things I see…I hear..and feel [...]

I don’t know what made me open the door..and go inside. It’s not everyday that I go visiting this place. The place was a room full of rooms…a maze in fact!
There was a time when I used to visit this place often..go through the stuff stored here..and gaze wistfully into the empty rooms…the view [...]

While I walk to my bus stand everyday I am witness to

It probably happens to all of us…we witness a thousand things every day…a man taking his dog to walk..a woman selling flowers early in the morning..or a kid throwing newspaper into balconies of three storey apartments…of milk men standing at road ends and gossiping….and maybe our sub conscious records everything and shapes us into [...]

I am writing about a tree in our campus…our office is surrounded by beautiful trees,shrubs..and flowering plants on all sides.When all of them flower together…they can put a rainbow to shame!lush green lawns beckon…to walk barefoot…and sometimes the water droplets from ..the sprinkler..glisten like diamonds…demanding you to look at the beauty..so inherent in [...]
