In light of the pandemic that has hit us, health isn't the only thing that is at stake. What it has done is given us enough time to reflect on other important aspects of our lives, personal relationships in particular. It has also allowed us to reflect back at the last moments we lived right before the world stood still. The moments I am truely glad I experienced right before the lock-down was implemented in India is what you're about to read. A preface to "Love in the Time of Corona"
Vegan-ism ; The new revolution
How many 'isms' can you name? How many 'isms' has human history gone through? How many more are we going to go through? Is the agenda behind all 'isms' just binary; Good or Bad; Right or Wrong; For or Against an idea? Is there not a grey area to look at these 'isms' from? How important is having an opinion?

The Girl who wouldn’t Shut Up
I recently happened to take a flight from Delhi to Bombay. Shared a very interesting conversation with a lovely 43 year old gentlemen, who didn't' shy away from talking about anything.
