I lost few lines I had written. Those were the lines churned out of impulse, in those few seconds realisation. I searched for them. Opened the recycle bin, looked for every possible way to restore them, but then they were lost, in the ocean of words. Those lines were beautiful - original creation of my own mind. I could not let them go. How could I... more...

With every new page
  Few days back I tore my diaries – the ones I had maintained for past six or seven years.

Rain drops are hanging on the window bar Waiting to fall. Ants walk in a row. They stop by to talk. There is no noise. Morning breeze is pushing back the spider's net. The net is still holding on. Clouds are moving. Slowly. An eagal is gliding. Slowly I am watching. Slwoly. more...

Be Selfish - Be Charitable
One of the fundamental failures of Indian Capitalism is the absence of focus on Charity. Though there has been a recent shift to favour sustainable businesses over promoting the dynasty, the overriding goal appears to be dynasty and nothing else.
