Musings on Life, Travels & Everyday Craziness

I write. I write in my journal, I write in my blog, I write in our business blog and I write, scribble, jot down stuff and ideas that get into my head when I am reading books. I’ve written all sorts of things – from letters to the editor, travel articles, commissioned pieces, to short … Read more
I’ve been on a GTD frenzy these few days. (Oh, GTD is Getting Things Done, btw). I always thought I had my time and task management down to an okay – I get things done, I consider myself one of those odd creatures who have lists upon lists of things to do and I find … Read more
So sorry if I appeared to have gone missing. I have not but so many things have gotten in the way of proper blogging so at times, I get 101 ideas but have not had the time to blog.

You know, it’s every reader’s guilty secret. This book dumping thing. Book dumping happens to the best of us. It happens to everyone who reads. I am sure we all started out eager to read everything and anything that came our way – I still read the small print on cosmetic bottles, the nutritional information … Read more
I have been meaning to make this post for ages now… but somehow always forgot to resize my photos. And today, tadddaaa…I managed to download the pics and resize them and uploaded them again (phew, the amount of work just to blog….). I count myself utterly fortunate to know so many great people. And among … Read more
