Was today typical? Not at all — and thank goodness for that. After days of relentless monsoon downpours that turned everything soggy and grey, today arrived like a quiet miracle.

It’s more about small, mindful choices I’ve made over time—choices that quietly shape the way I live and feel, without turning into strict rules or rigid plans. I’ve consciously reduced things I once consumed without much thought. … Continue reading This Works for Me—Maybe for You Too

I’m not in a place where I can start booking flights or drawing up itineraries. And honestly, that’s okay. Sometimes just the idea of travel is enough to … Continue reading Not Yet, But One Day
What would you change about modern society? If I could change one thing about modern society, it would be the way we educate our children. The current system is still rooted in outdated methods—focused too much on drilling theory into young minds, much of which is now easily accessible at the fingertips. In a time … Continue reading My Vision for Changing Modern Society
What do you listen to while you work? Some people need complete silence to work. Others need a buzz, a background hum to keep their thoughts moving. I usually fall into the first group.
