I'm Learning So Many Different Ways to be Quiet

Looking at the night sky,
I'm quiet.
I ponder about the depths 
of the universe.
Its planets, stars, and galaxies.

Looking at the world go by,
I'm quiet.
I ponder about the depths,
Of the people.
Their joys, wishes, and sorrows.

Looking at my mobile screen,
I'm quiet.
I ponder about the depths,
Of the apps.
Their colors, swipe, and scroll.

Looking at my wife and kids,
I'm quiet.
I ponder about the depths,
Of their hurt.
Seeing me so quiet.

You and Me

I’ve envisioned us as a black-and-white photograph, akin to the moon in a dark night. I don’t have grand expectations—just a bit of care and a promise to be there, now and forever.

The post goes beyond the picture it paints for me because SpaceNET was my first company, and Shuvam was my first mentor. When I joined, SpaceNET was called Starcom.
