When the mind sways, And when the same feelings this heart portrays, And when pot is also not left with enough ink, so when the quill says, Words on the parchment feel like a cheap fabric that frays. So many lines fumbled, So many feelings got crumbled, Like someone feels when they get ghosted, Those letters, in the drawer, always remained unposted. PS: Most of my posts are late night musings. Either way, the letter posted or not, the things I write reach this online platform or not, it feels good to scribble down random words once in a while.
Covid-19 has got to the nerves of everyone, someway or the other. However, there is one thing that has helped me maintain my sanity is endurance sports, like long runs and long bike rides. There are days, when I've started doing my own mini-duathlon (say 20-30km bike ride followed by 10k run). This might sound awkward to many, but there are few who will be okay with me doing this. Despite all this, even with so much physical activity, I've never attempted a half marathon alone. All my 14 half-marathons have been in some event or the other.

I made this decision pretty late I guess, as weekend was almost over. Yup, it was just another usual Sunday evening (there wasn't anything special gonna happen while everyone is stuck in the lockdown). I geared up and went down for a run. However, with Corona around t

A couple of decades earlier, it was easy for one to get placed.....Anyone somehow, someway get settled. No tension. But, today a big mob is running for the same.....So have you ever thought that where in this world do you stand????? Amidst this large crowd, what's our status????? We have to do something creative, innovative and discover something that is different from others with which we can move ahead and succeed in life..... Ohhh.....seems that i have diverted my discussion to a serious one.....isn't it????? Actually I'm writing this post because today when i was just scrolling through some of the pics in my laptop.....i recalled a couple of the funny moments which i had...some during my previous semester and some of them du
