Morning Sun by Edward Hopper

I am envious,
Of the woman in the Morning Sun,
She is able,
To sit on a bed without a phone.

Some people say, 
That she was the painters wife,
Sitting in bed,
Contemplating her lonely life in an industrial suburb.

At a time,
We can log off from in real life,
And log into,
A world where we peep into other's lies.

I am envious,
That the woman thinks of her life,
And not that,
Of other's empty facades aimed at us to buy the same facades.

Parenting stories - silent mothers, eager fathers

I am at an age where a lot of my friends and their friends are becoming parents or have become parents recently. One thing I have noticed is that my male friends are almost too eager to share their experience of becoming a father. I have done this too. I can’t stop talking about ...

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.
