I read a snippet from Jalaluddin Rumi today: “Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.” This one actually touched me deeply. We are living in a world of beauty like the moon and abundance like the stars but the experience of life is possible…

My dad bought me a notebook computer in my 3rd year of college. It travelled with me, played with me, had lots of fun with me all those years. It’s a PC of an Intel Atom processor with 2GB RAM. A couple of days back when I tried to turn it on, it still worked…

I have been spending the last couple of weeks at my home with my parents. I have often felt that it’s the ideal place to spend the monsoon 🙂 At night I’m in a room on the first floor which has a window that opens out to our little fruit and vegetable garden in the…

A friend of mine called me today to share and discuss his recent experience ( a bit fearful one) with Deja vu.

I was listening to a podcast today in which the host was sharing his ideas about making our lives a refreshing experience. We all deserve a refreshing life which would help us in all aspects. Refreshed thoughts and emotions, and ideas and routines, relationships and what not! One of the core ideas he suggested which…

A friend of mine shared a file regarding sustainability and the core idea was this: “Around 25% of world’s carbon emission is going to be caused by the fast fashion industry.” It was referring to the State of Fashion report by McKinsey & Company. For me, this was a shocking and quite unexpected number! The…
