We had a team lunch today, and The Art of War came up in our discussions. One of my colleagues had tried to read through it, and found it quite dry and unpalatable – I don’t seem to understand the point of it – she said (or something like that). Actually yes. If you read …

Keshav had a great janma tithi…or so I would like to believe… The day started with breakfast (I was too sleepy), then a light cleanse (NO! I don’t like), puja at home (pairee pauna paapaa) , then a visit to the temple (no photos and videos papa, only in restaurant in the evening), and then …
दीप्यते दीपयति वा स्वं परं चेति that which is light and enlightens others is known as Deepa… Tomorrow is Keshav’s janma tithi, that time of the year when the celestial ingredients are the same as when you were born, your own personal set of inputs that led to the miracle that is you. We all are born …

We all open for business tomorrow – but, are we ready yet? The last few days of any year pass by very fast – 2025 was no exception and before you know it, we are four days into the new year already. A lot of what I thought I would get done, well, just didn’t. …
The weekend descended and so did the quest for the ideal venue for the (not so) little one’s birthday party. Gone are the days when kids were satisfied with the “Baar Baar yeh din aye” kind of celebrations with party hats and cakes and adults having most of the samosas and the fun. No sir …
Jealousy is a common human trait. We would have to admit that we have been jealous or envious of someone at some stage of our lives. It may be as silly as a car, to bigger things such as someone having your dream job, or a much better pay package, a bigger house, a better …
A good first day. Began with yoga, then a nice breakfast, reading, walks with family in the community, digging dinosaur fossils, child not sleeping, visited a friend’s house, child threw tantrums on the way back, and now onto the first blog of 2026.
