I am a big sports fan. Apart from cricket & tennis, there was a time when I used to follow F1 and NBA regularly (courtesy the 2 Michaels – Schumi & Jordan)! But in my 28 yrs of existence, I dont have a single sports achievement to talk about! As I had mentioned in one [...]

My morning walk is now a regular feature and today I had my ipod for company. As I sauntered along, I noticed this salon that has come up in the vicinity (it might have been there for longer but my eye has a keen sense of missing such developments!) I had seen it a couple [...]

A colleague and friend of mine is leaving for Delhi and we had a sendoff party for him. It got me thinking that I have been a part of so many sendoff/farewell parties. So whats happening? Is the world moving too fast? Am I moving too slow? Things have been reasonably fine at the job [...]

Over the years, my rat racing and some lazy bones have played their part in me not trying my hand at certain things. Life along the work front is going on fine and so as I had put up in my earlier post on ‘Happyness’, i guess i need to do some exploration of my [...]
Why is Writing important?

I have been blogging for the past 3-4 months, and before that irregularly writing stuff for my own consumption. And I have noticed a change in myself as I write now more frequently.

Just a Thought…..
