Anything I feel like sharing here! Anything and just everything!
I just saw a friend of mine share her story and thought “Hey, So I am not the only one who had a similar experience…” When BLACK LIVES MATTER hit India it took a different turn. A turn I don’t think many people expected and even thought of. Us Indians are collectively called brown by…
When I was pretty young there was this series of self-help/spiritual article series that came out in a tamil weekly magazine called “Athanaikum Aasaipadu”. I never read it. Never had the interest to read it also. But those words stuck with me for some reason. It roughly translates to ‘Desire of Everything’ and frankly the…
My first major travel of 2020 is over and it was epic in every single way. Honestly I got cold feet just a couple days before the trip that I almost cancelled all my tickets. I had three different people from three different circles convincing me to just go on the trip. And oh my!…
Every year I put up a post on what that year taught me. Usually it will be something on the notes of me getting stronger over the obstacles. 2019 was a tad bit different if I have to say so. There were a series of losses that began during late 2018 and continued well into…
My earliest memory of music was singing very wrong lyrics to a Tamil song that was played on Pepsi Ungal Choice and letting my aunt record it. This is the song, you guys can guess the wrong lyrics… After that it was a random song here and there but I was always obsessed with singing…
My brother used to tell me that I was one of the few people whom he followed on Twitter. I did check his twitter once. He was following celebrities like Donald Trump and then there was me. When I asked him why, he said it was interesting to see what was on my mind. I…
All my life I have been shamed for yearning for attention. Be it from my parents or from my classmates or from someone I dated. It has always been shunned. Why? What is wrong with asking someone to hear out what you are trying to say? Or focus on smaller details? Being the youngest in…
I wish I had a more brighter and more positive blog post to write. But I don’t. Life has not been easy on me for the past few months. Since last November I have had more calls and heard more news about loved ones passing than any other kind of news. Usually it would be…
Recently a guy I know was talking to me and this is how the conversation went. Him(H) : so why are you leaving this job z Me(M) : my physical and mental health is at a toss and I need to take care of myself. H: what happened to your mental health? M: oh I’m…
I have been drafting this in my head for the past three days. But I was not able to sit and write it down. Writer’s Block maybe? I don’t know. So one more year gone and man was it one heck of ruckus. I don’t think I have seen these many ups and downs in…
I initially sat down to write on another prompt. But this one sort of pulled me more. So I came across this prompt Describe the last time you were moved to tears by something beautiful And there was this really amazing experience I had in recent times that was dangerously close to what…
I always (used to) tell my dad, “My wedding should be like a festival (thiruvizha)… Like a celebration…” It normally should be, right? I mean a wedding is when a family invites a new member into their home. It is when two families actually become one for the sake of two individuals. Of course it…
Another year is going to end. In a very long time I have more thank you notes to send out than any other message. 2017 has been in a way, a year of achievements. I finally packed up enough courage and quit my corporate job. The year didn’t start so well. But I think I…
Yup! I am back with another one of my camping adventures. Except this time this trip sort of became something I hold very dear to my life. And I hope more people get this wonderful feeling in their lives at one point of time. When I heard that Exoticamp was arranging a camping trip to…
I just finished watching the movie Pink. Yeah almost after a year I have managed to finish watching it. What do I say… It was taxing. It was pretty triggering for me. For a person who could relate so much with Minal Arora, Falak Ali and Andrea Taraing I couldn’t watch it in one go….
