Its been almost 18 months since I wrote my last entry here. It has something to do with my marriage. I write not for the sake of writing but only when I get passionate about an idea or thing. Now that doesnt mean that I didnt get passionate about anything apart from my marriage but somehow writing it here became very heavy. Today, I felt like writing something for the sake of writing probably or

Once you start earning money begin to consider ways of leveraging money. This is the art of takingsmall sums of money to move larger amounts. Many young people waste their 20's getting into debtbuying flashy products. This is the decade when you usually don't yet have a family and is the besttime to lay the foundation for future riches.Also live well below what you are earning say 10-20% below.

A few mintues back, I finished reading "The Romantics", Pankaj Mishra, his life around Benaras. Though there is no explicit though provoking by him, but it is a grim reminder of what life I am leading and what I wish to live.Its been such a long time, when I had thought of visiting Benaras, of getting away from this complicated maze of competitve world, where we do not see ourselves as human

How should one live his life ?One way,Enjoy everyday as it comes, go out for party, stay chill, no heavy talks, not getting into serious thinking and just live happy daily.Second way,Think about life, think about people around you, try understanding them and also yourself from a third person's perspective, understand their emotions, be there without their explicit need to say so, do things to

Today I was talking to a friend of mine, who was telling about this friend of her's who has a very strong personality. For ease, lets call my friend as S and her friend as R.So R was saying that when she is with R, she feels so great, R is so enthusiastic and excited about S , she gives so much attention to S that makes S feel so special. But when R is not with S, she will not even call once or

I was watching a YT's video on Adolf Hitler and was amazed to see that whatever I read in the novel 1984 was actually quite real. When I read the book, I thought it was a fantasy mixed with a little bit of reality told in a severe form, but after watching this video, which was produced by some British Director, based on fact or factual evidences, I was amazed at the genius mind of Adolf Hitler.He

Recently, I was reading the book, "Philosophy- Who needs it ", by Ayn Rand.This was my first formal literature on Philosophy. Previosuly , the philosophical aspects were analysed in form of non-fiction or fiction books.Till now, I had never heard of the fight between different philosophy. Infact I never though that there are different philosophical thoughts in this world. I always thought that

There are times when you make a resolution, a decision which you feel , can change your life, which can make you reach closer to your dream, to your goal. You get all pumped up, completely energetic, passionate towards this goal. It seems to you like a "eureka" for your dreams.Then few days down the line, you have the passion burning but the flame is kept low, you think about your resolution,

Today while casually browsing through wikipedia, I came across article on Aryabhata. The only thing I recollect when I think about him is that he was a great mathematician. But I never cared to find, what he were his achievements. Today, when I read about him, I was stunned to find what all he had achieved centuries back in 400AD. The few achievements of Aryabhata:1) Value of Pi to 4 decimal

This was a very sentimental geone">article which I read in WSJ .A female of the age of 96, is very vulnerable and fragile, but she still insists on living in a house which she and her husband had build decades back. You tend to think, it doesn’t make sense for a person of this age, who tends to have memory loss, who cannot walk properly and who is really so fragile, that she should live in

A few days back, I was talking to a friend of mine and she told me a funny incidence.A friend of her, aged around 35 ,who is a software engineer, working in a pretty good company , here in California, earning big bucks, all of a sudden quit the job. The reason - he wants to become an actor. This might sound quite funny, but many of us have, what is called "Mid life crisis". When we are young and

I need to not say any words about the him, for everybody knows that he, an Indian filmmaker, is among the dozen or so great masters of world cinema, is known for his humanistic approach to cinema.

"There is no pain, you are receding.A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.You are only coming through in waves.Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.When I was a child I had a fever.My hands felt just like two balloons.Now I got that feeling once again.I can’t explain, you would not understand.This is not how I am.I have become comfortably numb."I remember this song whenever I see

At 9490m in the sky, there is nothing much to be seen down except clouds and more clouds. Sitting at the window seat for last 8 hrs and 2 more hours left before we shall be landing at the SFO airport.At this height , we are away from everything , from phone call, from emails and messengers, we are around 450 individuals sitting at the allocated seats waiting for the destination to arrive.

I cannot stop smiling thinking about it. I remember the early days of Cable TV when the Foreign channels flooded the Indian Television arena and the fight against the adulterous content was taken by the so called protectors of Hinduism and Indian culture.That was the time when "The Bold and The Beautiful" and "Baywatch" were a taboo and were the craze for guys with lot of testosterone.Watching

Here again, at the cross-roads of meeting a brand new year and bidding good-bye to the year going by. Another year of on this earth is going to end. Another cycle will begin.I tend to feel pretty nostalgi when trying to go down the memory lane. No matter whether the things in the past are good or bad , but you always remember it with a strong emotion attached to it and that is simply because you

The year was 1998, a small frail, no confident guy was on the cross-roads, he was sitting in the Kurukshetra University's Hall, waiting impatiently for his turns, while watching the TV monitordisplaying the number of seats left in the Government Colleges for the Engineering Degree. And with every guy going on the stage to reserve his seat, his hopes of getting into YMCA college was diminishing.He

No, this is not about the fancy book written by the "now famous" Chetan Bhagat. Its the crude reality which has come to surface due to the horrible incident which has taken place in Bangalore, my city.The rape and murder of Prathiba Murthy was a shocking experience to everyone and I was also shocked.I dont know why I was so shocked, I mean the rapes and murders happen everywhere across the

My protagonist, lets name him Alok, for easy reference , was born in a still conservative India. It was the year 1980. It was the era when the values and ethics still held high in the society, when children would still say nameste to elders and when they would touch the feet of the old people. When he would feel elated at the thought of watching a movie on DD1, when he would imitate Ashok

Run for Life, for if you keep sitting on your ass the whole day and night, it wont be long before you resign to the bed , soon.GYM, the word in childhood, I always used to think , is for only those ppl who want to make BIG muscles. Thats why, I never joined it, as I was never interested in making BIG muscles.It was later, much later that I reailised that there is more to GYM than making muscles.

After a long long time , I finally started reading voraciously again and its all coz of the fact that now I am paying to read the books and not reading it for free. Someone has said it right, "Anything which comes for free, doesnt hold any value for you".So, I read , this wonderful writer's novel "Love in the time of Cholera" , by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. It is a story of hopeless, tortured

Marriages are made in heaven, then why the become hell on earth. I never got a generic answer to this question, except some common points like mis-understanding, ego and not being honest.According to the Vedas and other books of knowledge of Hindu Past , there are four ashramas which follow the cycle of growing up, adulthood and getting old and are Brahnacharyi (student), Grihasta householder),

My only daughter Sindu lookedfrightened. Tears were welling up in her eyes. In front of her was a bowl filled to its brim with Curd Rice.Sindu is a nice child, quite intelligent for her age. She has just turned eight. She

It was raining heavily outside. Dark clouds gathered in the sky and nature was in its ominous best. I took a break from my work and went to the pantry to grab a cup of coffee. I had a sip and went near the window to see the rain pouring down heavily outside the glass structure. I was inside our huge office building, unruffled by even the fierceness of the nature.

Yday unbelieveable became todays exception when I woke up at 10:00 am instead of the planned 6:30am. But the fault is not entirely of me not getting up, it has more to do with the fact that I slept pretty late at 11:30pm. So a soul which has woken up at 6:00am and sleeping at 11:30pm , is bound to feel tired and I just gave up for good, else I would have felt tiredness and body ache the whole
