My #DeMonetization experience & some thoughts stemming from it

8th November, 2016 began on a fabulous note for me. Yummy home cooked food, my favourite folks around me and the preparations of an exciting two-week long motorcycling trip that was to begin the next day. I’d gone to the ATM and withdrawn 10 Thousand rupees, to help me with liquidity for the expenses in…

दिवाळी खडाजंगी जंकशन ची

कंदिल लावला, पणत्या लावल्या, अम्मा ने छानशी-छोटुशी रांगोळी काढली, एकत्र फराळ केला, आणि झाली दिवाळी साजरी आमची 🙂

A scoop full of bullshit

Originally posted on The write side of life:
​ This is in reference to a write-up I once read on the scoops and vomit, yes you heard right. He does have a distinct style and rather offbeat style that makes slang sophisticated. The author’s thoughts became a benchmark for me and helped understand where to…

Keep Moving, Keep Exploring

Broken road, cobbled road – smooth road or no road; the surface underneath doesn’t matter as long as you’re riding.  There’s only one life to travel & we’ve got to keep moving, keep exploring…

Godspeed MooCow

Still vividly remember the day you came home. I was a few thousand miles away from familiar land, wondering what to get for everyone at Diwali. I didn’t know much but hit the web & started ordering as per individual preferences. The distribution began even before I’d gotten over the jet-lag. One after another they came and…

There’s plenty of bitterness in this world around us, the people, the things, you name it. But even with all the negativity, there’s still plenty left to be happy about. Ergo – the beginning of the #ReasonsToLove series… Dedicated to a life full of appreciation, for there’s so much to be thankful, to be grateful about……

Jugaad is killing us

Mechanical failures aren’t exactly a new thing for Indian motorists. The reasons range from lax maintenance standards & ignorance on proper procedures, to sheer indifference towards statutory compliance. We carry on nevertheless. Because, what else can we do. It’s a game of survival out there & we all have got to do what we got…

5 am Bliss

Fill shot-glass with Jameson. Stick it in the freezer overnight. Wake up at first-light. Retrieve said shot-glass Raise it to the lips, and As your savour each sip, You experience 5 am bliss! Cheers! Note: I am taking my Alexa rank to the next level with Blogchatter – more dope on it when you hit…

Co-existence

Our differences are meant to be respected, celebrated even. Instead we use them to drive a wedge between perfectly good folks. Ruining the chances of a beautiful today & a fabulous ‘morrow.  Why do we always have to get the others to play by our rules.  Why do we go ballistic when they want to play their…

Twitter – the meeting place for beautiful randomness – Ep. 1

It’s happened many a times, but i haven’t written about it before. Today though, was time to break free from that loop (Lord alone knows why, though). A random tweet, doesn’t matter who’s sent it, ends up leading to a nice, fun conversation. Just like that. Twitter, you see, is many things to many people….

Raindrops

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, the heavens open up on us… Out by the window, the raindrops start to gather. Lining up on the grill, they call out to us. Come watch, they say, watch us as we take birth, grow & then drop away…
