WhatsApp is a great app in terms of offering food for thought. There’s a consistent supply of forwards and at times they make one pause and think. The advent of Navratri has brought an influx of messages invoking men and women alike to pray to the Goddess within the women and to celebrate womanhood. One…

When Hit By ‘No Idea!’
So, I ask my friend what should I write about for this week’s blog. The answer, “I have no idea.” I ask Shubham what he thinks about something and the answer is “I have no idea.” I ask people around me for their opinion about something and most of the times the answer is, “What…
Bladestorm
A lot is happening around me, most of it good. The month of August was filled with frenzied activity and every activity brings with it experiences which makes one wiser. I started the new month with a new found wisdom. The month began with the arrival of the ‘God of knowledge’, Ganesha who is also…
A Milestone Is Reached

The Lion King
