Quest
Reading “In Xanadu” felt like revisiting an emotion that felt familiar.
I certainly don't know the locations and characters that are mentioned in the book.
But when their quest ends, the author mentions feeling a void within. That a quest which requires so much sacrifice and time and effort was over in one fell swoop. A dream that someone might have held long enough to light, and keep lit, this raging motivation to complete a quest is not easy to consign to the pages of Past. The restlessness that follows is unbearable. The mind tries to hold with bare nails.
This i can relate to. I have felt that void within and the restlessness that follows. There is no rational manner in which I can explain what drives one to act in such a manner. But it does and we have little say in the matter. You follow the path illuminated by the lights that your mind has gently seemed appropriate to appear.

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.
Pukhtunwali
As anyone growing up in 90’s India, I could do the Pathan accent. The images of Kabuliwalah and Khuda Gawah in equal measure and the romance of thinking of distant peoples whose lives could not be more different than yours.
