Summer Reading 2021
Last year, I assigned myself a goal of reading 40 books in year 2020 in honor of my 40th birthday. Very random goal yet somehow poetic in my head (the number 40 just tied it all in, I guess). I was surprised that I actually accomplished that goal. As nerdy as it may sound, it…

Rounding off 2017…..
“May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art– write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year,…

INDIA- Land of a billion people!
“It’s the country of saints and beggars, progression and history, agriculture and industrialization, religion and spirituality, and a country of despair and faith.”
