  • Class apart

    Empathy is as rare as common sense. If only every class could empathize with the other and be willing to put themselves in the others shoes, the world could be a more harmonious place to live. More homogenous, blurring the boundaries between the haves and have-nots. Making inter-class interactions more wholesome than a facade. Giving a chance to young couples who want families to mingle and offsprings to flourish via best of both worlds.

    But then these are idealistic thoughts, a utopia which exists only in tales. Balancing empathy with self respect is a fine task and not many are adept in it. So sadly the next generations mostly learn to sneer upon a lower class or drool upon a higher one. Either ways they shall find their footing on their own.

  • Time : Reality or Myth

    Time though a well established fourth dimension, is perceived differently by everyone. It seems to pass slowly when facing hardships and flies fast when in celebratory mode.

    What if we were told that time never existed? Actually it has no tangible existence until defined by milestones. Time is just our mind’s way of recording memories, events and happenings of life. It’s a medium to record, annotate and even rank our life as it happens.

  • Aging Alone

    Ever wondered who would you want to grow old with? Your friends, your siblings, your offsprings, your spouse?

    There is no dearth of options. As economies start aging, formalized old age resorts would be a viable option for those who can afford. Ofcourse state-run welfare programs rarely target this age group, except for retirement pension schemes which already weigh down the government’s balance sheet. But besides the maths and economics of it all, the social and psychological tangent is also an aspect to ponder. Would you be open to embracing new faces in your silver years?

    Or is it enough to have just I, me, myself for vibing and slaying these post-retirement years? So that you can spend time the way you want, structure your life around your own priorities and live unhinged. With great freedom may come greater loneliness, so be prepared to welcome the silence and the solitude as a blissful change in your life!

  • Science of Gratitude

    Making it more than a good vibe or nicety. It’s can become an intentional act that reshapes how one experiences life. If one can focus on what’s already here and not on what’s missing – one can grow the capacity for joy.

    Neuroscience studies show gratitude activates parts of brain responsible for regulating emotions and improving decision making. Growing the brain’s neural pathways stronger. It’s like strength training for the brain – the more you do it, the easier it gets.

    Don’t mistake gratitude for an act of denial. It’s more like an act of defiance – a self-refusal to be consumed by negativity. A hack to thrive even when life itself isn’t perfect!

  • Intuitive Living

    When you live and not just exist.

    When you thrive albeit using your own yardstick.

    When you find your growth pace despite the rat race surrounding you.

    Difficult? Undoubtedly.

    Unsettling? Absolutely.

    Fulfilling? Definitely.

    There is no escaping the usual cyclical process of self-doubt, wallowing, cross-examining decisions taken and then reiterating ones goals. But every iteration would be shorter, building more confidence and less erosive of self esteem. Afterall Rome wasn’t built in one day.

  • Vamos amigo!

    Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. But do count personal wins. Each day, everyday. Until it becomes a huge victory in itself. Afterall every ounce of effort should be lauded. Every tiny accomplishment should be celebrated. And every step in the direction of the goal should be appreciated.

    As simple as habit building or as complex as identifying an emotion yet being in control of the reaction. As tiny as refusing that extra piece of cake or as courageous as admitting ones mistake. As basic as keeping the commitment to check on your loved ones or as bold as burying the hatchet with a lost friend.

    Kate who?

  • Breaking free

    A child learns majorly at home. A young adult is influenced by the university attended. & an early career working adult gets shaped by the organization’s work ethos. While formal learning ends, informal nurturing is a life long process. Place of residence, religious cult, immediate community of identity add to the myriad colours of one’s personalities.

    An individual mustn’t be bound by what comes to him. He should rather seek. Seek without holding back. Seek new experiences, a diverse set of people, adventurous food choices and sometimes even an unlikely choice of clothing. It brings eye opening lessons, intellectual stimuation and a variety to mundane routine life. Be a sponge and soak it up, better late than never!

  • Lost & Found

    A journey of rediscovery.

    The songs she didn’t listen to, the movies she didn’t see. The books she overlooked, the friends she skipped to check in on.

    Was she busy building her life or hiding behind a tough exterior? Ofcourse she was running away, from herself, her thoughts and her own being.

    Take that first step, free yourself from the burden of the past. Speak, hear, sob, laugh. Live it all; past, present and future. Liberate yourself and others from the unsaid. All would be lost yet found. ♥️

  • Growing, away

    Growth is always associated with positivity, prosperity and success. While we know it comes from a place of discomfort, can growth it self have a negative connotation?

    Yes, if it gets to your head. Takes you away from your core principles. Makes you that individual you despised or made fun of while on your climb upwards.

    Yes, if it takes you away from your heart and the people who reside in it. Makes you feel resentment for those who you chose to keep and those who chose to be your cheerleaders.

    So grow, evolve, transform. May it fulfill all your dreams and desires. But do hold your head and heart closer to your inner core than ever before. Amen!
