You have to write. What if I have nothing to say?What if it’s not good? Or good enough? Or as good as before?What if what I have to say doesn’t matter?No. I don’t want to say something. You don’t write because you want to say something. You write because you have something to say. Yes. […]

On exhaling
A deep breath in. Taking in a deep inhale – you tune out the world and drift into another one , feeling powerful. The first few seconds feel great. You enjoy the rush, it feels relaxing. The next few seconds bring stillness, one you’ve been craving to find. And so you hold it in, this inhale. […]
To Dream
“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist It’s been over a decade from when I first read the book. I wouldn’t give myself the credit to fully appreciate it back then. I was such a different person, with such a different dream. Mine, but not […]
’18(’19)
Discovery. It was the word of 2018. I don’t think I would have chosen it so, had I written this post at the close of last year. But that’s what I ended up discovering. I discovered a lot of things this year – about people, my people, places (past and yet to come), about life […]
We Live, We Learn
There used to be a time, not so long ago, (well actually…pretty long ago), when I would write out my agony, the emotions that defined me. It was the inception of my relationship with poetry.

Are You There?
Are you there, living and breathing, right in this moment, are you there, here, present… I’m not a big believer in horoscopes, and not too knowledgeable about astrology. In fact, my only connection with it is part of my morning routine, when I skim through the Capricorn section of Daily horoscope. I started reading it […]
What Have You Seen?
Tell me love, what have you seen today? This question depicted in a mural by Shiv Suleman at Clarion Alley in San Fransisco, it popped back into my head as I walked around Greenpoint in Brooklyn today. The plan was to attend The Other Art Fair, presented by Saatchi Art. I had been looking forward […]
Much More
Of course I didn’t bring my Mac. And of course this was the one day I didn’t have my little note book! Lately, this seems the likely pattern of my life. Some call it unlucky, I choose scrappy. A series of events over the past few weeks have transcended me into an upheaval of emotions, […]
