Walk me home




Amidst sheer ice walls 
Of habitual upraise 
Stranded in a deluge 
Of acid rain
I'm nerved to give up,
But summer awaits 
Come by till then
Walk me home


Coming all the way

To the butt end of my calm 
Just navigate further
Before I'm on my knees
Walk me home 

Overheard a siren

Took it for a tease 
Slipping through my fingers 
Unable to cease 
Pain, the dearest, 
Pretty Please
Walk me home

Here We GROW! | Learnings from the book: Free Your Mind

Exactly one year ago, I published a blog: Perks of having nothing to do, where I wrote about the positive side of having absolutely nothing to do. It's a coincidence that this year, we are all having those perks by our side.This year, all of us have switched to the super basic mode of living life. It's strange how difficult it is for most of us to live a simple life. We're not used to this. At the back of our mind, most of us are upset about the situation. Even I am. After a lot of thinking, overthinking, crying, we're all finding our own calm and dealing with this one day at a time. As you must already know, Feeling low in this situation is very natural. Finding the way out of these troublesome thoughts can be a task. For those of us who are struggling to pave our own career path, any kind of hindrance can seem like the sky is falling or the universe is not on our side. Especially when we have so much time in our hands, control over our negative thoughts can go o...

Art Attack

Today, I'd like to alter the famous quote, 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' by saying, "Art is in the eye of the beholder", and where there's art, how can beauty go missing? I feel, Imagination is the mother of all the art there is. I even have a T-shirt that says 'Imagination takes you places'(SO TRUE). For creating Art, all you have to do is Imagine! The resources for making Art are actually Free. You are the raw material. You are the process and finally you are the Masterpiece. I'll tell you a secret about how to enjoy art to the fullest. Just remember these words: YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE GOOD AT IT. As a child, I always dreamt of becoming a dancer, a good dancer. I wanted to dance in award shows or become a background dancer. I had daydreams about choreographing a song for Madhuri Dixit. If 'High Hopes' was a person, it was me. It's okay. You can laugh on this. Growing up, I lost touch with professional ...

Everyone has a '26th July' Story...

26 July 2005. It's been more than ten years to that day, but whenever it rains heavily in Mumbai, most of us here say "It's raining like 26th July" or "26th July is here again" as if the rain gods have set a benchmark for us. Everyone who stepped out of the house or stayed indoors that day has some story to tell. I've heard three kinds of '26th July' Stories. 1) The absolutely unaffected ones: These were the people who were living far away from flooded areas, the ones who got back home before the deluge happened or the ones who were out of station. 2) Moderately Affected Ones: They had to struggle to get home, some got stuck in office for two days, others were stuck in traffic for one day or were stranded in some public space.Good part was they were safe wherever they were. They managed it somehow and got out of it later. 3) Super Affected Ones: This has a long list, but I'll make it short for you. These were the ones whos...
