There is no substitute My wife creates, manages and curates online content for a living. Her company manages brands and help telling their stories. I still struggle to explain what that exactly means. But over our endless cups of chai, I am beginning to get how she is trying to help companies market themselves authentically.[…]
Pit stop rush Time has turned ferocious and I can’t for the life of it, attempt to slow it down. I am guessing it has always been fast. But I suppose, when one is younger,one tends to think there is always the second half. And now when I am in the second half, I wished[…]
The fall out There is no good way to say this. So I shall just say it and hope that you can let me explain myself before you reply. The truth is that I am no longer in love with you. And it is not easy for me to say that. We have been through[…]
I can’t recall exactly when I developed my extrovert features. As a child, I was shy and kept mostly to my own means. Ours was a small apartment in Nashik with a massive living room. When guests would arrive I would usually be called out of my bedroom to come say hello. I would obediently[…]
I have called it poetic before. But ironic is more like it. India’s Independence Day is also the day I started on an independent journey eleven years ago.

Those who know me well pass it off as dry humor at times and usually correctly adopt ridicule as a countermeasure. Those who don’t know me well assume the worst and walk away. It has made me wonder[…]
In a race of my own, for scraps and for everything. Motorsport and I share a complicated relationship status. For starters, I love it far too much. Having studied vehicle dynamics, I understand a large portion of what is required for one to be fast around the race track. When I couple that confidence with[…]
Circulating overflow David’s waiting game had its consequences. Largely, they were damaging. This profound thought did not dawn upon him as he climbed peaks in South America or when he floated in the Bavarian seas. It wasn’t even the fact that he was actively counting years and checking off his birthday, year after year. Rather,[…]
Terrifying categorization Ironically, the more differences I observe in cultures and races, the more I am beginning to think they are all alike. There are certainly stereotypes that hold true but all of them are so superficial that they cannot dictate intellect, maturity or ability in any which way. In that respect, we really are[…]
