The Week That Was #SoulfulSunday
I had a busy week last week. On Friday, I took a day off from everything I was doing. As it happens, I feel like I haven’t written for ages together, although, it has been only on just that day that I didn’t write. It amazes me how my mind puts distance between the days […]
Change, the only Constant #SoulfulSunday
Change is the only constant. But nobody likes change. That’s a universal truth too. While I was explaining Newton’s laws of motion to Kanna these thoughts got into my head. The truth is everything is changing and evolving every day. There is no denying that. There is no stopping that. But we don’t like change. […]
An Unusual Journey #SoulfulSunday
When did my head start inviting these pesky intruders inside, letting them take over and leave a mess? The pain they leave behind is so difficult to deal with! Why did my head think that it was okay to let them in? Why didn’t my head stop them, right then and there on their tracks, […]

The Rules of Living #SoulfulSunday
In the latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy, an unconscious Meredith describes how a newborn takes the first breath outside the womb. She describes it as the scariest step a human does. Breathing on its own for the very first time. Thinking about it, it made me accept the enormity of the task. That tiny little […]
I’m Not God-fearing #SoulfulSunday
For a long time, I used to believe that praying means asking God for things. Things that made my life good and happy. Then one day some years ago, I realized if there is a god he or she doesn’t need my telling what I want. God would know everything. Why would I pray to […]
What is the point? #SoulfulSunday
Sometimes I stumble upon this question. After all, what is the point? Because life is so messed up on so many levels and beyond a point, we humans can’t even make sense. Look at the events that transpire in the world every day. There is no rhyme or reason. Why some people are poor and […]
