Why does everything have to come with an ache attached to it? Just something that was on my mind. It just seems like that. Let’s just leave it there and move on to other things for the moment shall we? There are other things going on in my life too.
I’m flying to India tomorrow. Considering [...]

Last afternoon the ocean was frothing and foaming angrily at my feet. Seemingly angrier that she couldn’t reach higher and slap me across the face.
And so she gripped at my toes viciously, trying to pull me into her depths with her sandy fangs, drawing me in with the taste of blood.
Last evening the she sent [...]

Now I know this wasn’t really an original of hers lyrically, but trust Janis Joplin to know just how to reflect my mood today.

Inspired after brilliant open mike night, my friend Buddhi’s performance and another on of WDR’s brilliantly worded posts… This is part of a huge initiative by the Times of India’s campaign called India Poised and I wanted to post one of the essential pieces of copy that made it such a huge success.

There are times in your life where you feel you’re standing still. It’s like you’re in this one stagnant place and you can’t quite put your finger on what it is you need to do to move on. You look for inspiration within and without and still… you feel like it’s so very senseless. You’re [...]
