Paine & Whine to Pain & Win

I’ll talk all day Mate… Wait until you get to the Gabba, pal. Tim Paine (Captain, Australia Cricket Team) “…I don’t wanna talkAbout things we’ve gone throughThough it’s hurting meNow it’s history…The winner takes it allThe loser has to fallIt’s simple and it’s plainWhy should I complain?…” – ABBA (1980) Doesn’t a piece of ABBA…

the I.

36 – A new nadir!

You don’t win or lose the games because of 11 you select. You win or lose with what those 11 do on the field Rahul Dravid Dravid’s words of wisdom could not have held more merit before than on Dec 19, 2020. A bright Australian summer day at the Adelaide Oval. Third day of play…

Liberate

How do we liberate ourselves,from the realms of negativity?maybe we transcend our mind,to see the rainbow in its colorful glory,and not as a mundane monochrome arc;maybe we forgive someone,from the bottom of our heart,and not from the surface as an afterthought; It really doesn’t matter…if it is the Sun that rises torelieve the darkness of…

Illusion

As balmy waves, andlofty tidescrash ashore…We draw feelingsoften alike in their depth,yet disparate in form… Pleasure is one suchcalming the eyes and earsInspiration is anotherclaiming the mind and soul…Lost in the script of nature,we assume the elementsand their core and purpose,just nourishing our desires… Like a veil separatinga comic’s rigorsand their patron’s joy…A latent façade…

Journey

We move into new placesWe touch new experiencesBe there a rhyme or reason,to fix a crunch or just rise…It is the factual physical journey. We often meet others,some alike, some contraryWe could be decisiveyet feel unsettledWe could feel committedyet feel desperate…Emotional journey is complex.

2020

Quoting an enlightened soul – “In human experience, the time that planet Earth takes to revolve around the sun is a way to guage what we are doing in this world.” Every one hundred and one spins around sun, mother Earth propels us into a new year, of unique number scheme… The onset of last…

Through Absence

In the rising of a formidable antagonist, that the power of a protagonist has value; whatsoever be its physical or philosophical stature. It is omnipresent, and most often taken for granted just by us, Humans… Only when plunged – even couple feet deep – under water; that we dearly miss air. They aren’t abundant, but…

Abiding Brilliance

Life is… about forming habits; good or bad, is one’s own choice; Life is also… about holding virtues; highest or lowest, it’s known what ain’t a vice; Life is, more often… doing actions and reactions; former is rarely proactive, latter is mostly instinctive… An actor bears the burden, of forming, holding, and doing; one more…

Say cheese!

If the Touchbar in MacBook was ground-breaking, the triple-cam in new iPhone is nerve-wrecking, and earth-shattering… Oh Apple! You were the pioneer, of suave build, and minimalistic design… With the previous one,           the Roman numeral came,           and Home button went;          …
