The waves of happiness

Quite often we take impulsive decisions and later regret them. Sometimes we take decisions we have been procrastinating due to the fear of facing the pain. Whether you are right or wrong is subjective but you can think whether the reason behind your decision was due to ego or becuase it was needed. That decides …

The prejudice and cilche

We presume so much, don’t we? When we see an otherwise exuberant person is silent, we presume that something is wrong with them or their family. If they look a little sad, we presume that they are depressed. We don’t think twice before saying someone is depressed, mad, crack or crazy. We would not think …

Set your priorities straight

Of late I have been asked if I don’t do household jobs at all. I appreciate the intrigue people have in my personal life. To curb the desire let me clarify. Yes, I don’t do much cooking, if cooking is the job they are referring to or is it room and bathroom cleaning? Or is …

Sense the reality, don’t escape from it

We have all been escapists. Even if our intuitions try to guide us, we choose to ignore it in fear of trouble. Or we shall call it emotional inertia. Unlike what we have learned over the years, our heart has the power to sense fakeness. But we put a curtain over it for our convenience …

The beginning of a saga

I have been asked why I am not updating anything in this blog. Apart from a few reviews and quotes, there have not been much happening in the arena of words. If there is a point where we try to find a balance between “me and the real me”, it was the time for me. …

The memes and cartoons were outstanding and it was surprising to see that how much talent we had. It has to be,since the Government was cited responsible for the …

The best seller formula

To see one’s book among the bestsellers is always a writer’s dream. I too have dreamed of seeing my book in vertical and spiral stacks in the book stalls and people staring at the stacks with unveiled admiration. Once I set out to the world of publishing, I realised that to get past the slush …
