Skepticism on a not so holy holiday
People go away from their homes,
Because they can't manage to stay,
At home on those holy holidays,
Because of the noise.
Times for contemplation and learning,
Is broken by the loud song singing, And competitions which seek whose,
Music system can play louder.
Times for meeting friends and relatives,
Is broken by the messages and forwards,
Sent on WhatsApp and Telegram whose,
Message came earlier.
Times for celebrating a holiday,
Is broken by the loud rhetoric,
Sent on social media,
That make no sense.Never miss a post from

Social Media: Just consumption or Survival?
This has been a topic of my mind lately. I believe this might stem from the news consumption on the migrant crisis happening across the west (Europe + American continent).
Beliefs, Validation and Kindness
I was at work. I was browsing a news website. A colleague walked in unannounced. He saw my screen and said “yaane aap congress wale ho” (So, this means you are a congress supporter!). His tone was almost accusatory. This was not the first time someone had classified me in this po...
Dec 9 - Monday blues!
Just another Monday in December. But on some mornings I get into blues, need not be a Monday though, and I start rambling. Twitter gets the brunt of it most, but since it’s already in deep s.h.i.t nowadays, I presume it’s won’t mind to carry some more. For me. I haven’t taken pre...
