The Kite Runner, the Confessions of an Advertising Man, the Godfather. Of reading: I got into the habit of reading pretty late in my life – second year of my college.

This morning, a friend asked me why I was so happy. I smiled and said that I didn’t have an answer.  Then I started to wonder why I seemed so happy and why I couldn’t stop smiling?   A couple of weeks back my worst nightmares came true. Or, I thought so. At that moment, I thought I was [...]

Incident: Five years ago! Don’t know what time of the day. All that I can remember is that one moment (perhaps that moment of realization that I’ve been repenting for since then).  Life has never been the same since then.   “There were lots of people around.  Some of them were crying and others were discussing how good [...]

So, How The Hell Do I Feel?  Incident: An accident (no casualities, no major injuries). An old Bajaj Chetak, a young girl and her mom.

How The Hell Do I Feel??

Are you wondering why the hell you reached here or what you are facing at the moment on your computer? Well, I’m not going to try and answer these questions. They are not my business at all. Even if you are wondering how you are feeling right now, I’m least bothered about it. You could [...]
