A little more than 4 years ago today, I was going through the most rigorous interview process of my life. I didn’t know that this would lead to a whole world of possibilities for me. Today marks the 4th anniversary of me joining the most fulfilling job of my life, at this tiny little webContinue reading “Automattic”

Twenty nine
Birthdays are weird. You’re essentially celebrating making a whole revolution around the sun, and yet you get closer to your ultimate demise. I don’t think about death much, but birthdays are a good opportunity to reflect on our time here. I turned 29 yesterday, last day of pride month. It had never occurred to meContinue reading “Twenty nine”
Nineteen, and beyond
It’s that time of the year again. 2018 passed by so quickly, and still felt like the longest year of my life ever(don’t you hate it when that happens every year?😒). I have grown a lot this last year, maybe more than all previous years combined. 2019 brings me closer to being the magical ageContinue reading “Nineteen, and beyond”

Happy New Year
Another year has passed… another instance of "This flew by way too quickly"… another set of unfinished resolutions… another bunch of unfulfilled desires… and one more "this time I'll totally do it". Every 365 days, we do this dance. We run around, go through the motions of life, trying to convince ourselves that a newContinue reading “Happy New Year”

When in Rome…
…do like Romans do. Time and again, someone is going to give you this advice, and most people don’t think of it as a big deal. In fact, this might be one of the most common advices flying around, and one of the most common advice to be completely ignored by people who have achievedContinue reading “When in Rome…”

An old poem
This poem has been moved from my old blog. I wrote it maybe 6-7 years ago, when I used to be in the existentialistic teen-age. 🙂 Enjoy, maybe..
Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digitalContinue reading
Fathers’ Day
People are posting pictures, writing stuff on twitter and Facebook, and digging out old photos of their fathers; all the while I’m waiting for these few hours in a depressing train coach to pass, so I can go see him. When I think about Fathers’ day, I find it a bit weird. To those whoContinue reading “Fathers’ Day”
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehowContinue reading
