Desire is a contract that you make with yourself to be unhappy until you get what you want.

These days I have been hooked into the World History Videos.
It is hard for me to fathom the fact that no-one had hot shower until 50 years ago.
The electricity.
The entertainment.
Technology, the amenities, modern medicine, and the infrastructure we have today are mere fragments of imaginations for the ones who lived 100 years ago.
Someone said it right, “We are living like Kings.”
Yet.
We are never objectively happy.
Subjectively worse.
To top it off, the rampant social media; the flex culture in tandem bringing in the worst of us. Nakedly. Ignorantly. Unknowingly.
Generation Z or often referred to as ‘Zoomers’ are the ones who were born between late 1990s and ealy 2010s. They are often described as first true ‘digital nativees’, having grown up with smartphones, social media and the internet access.
On September 8, 2025. Gen Z organized a protest against Corruption. Although there are plenty of other narratives that have found its way on the local, national and global media.
Estimated total of 21 Gen Z protestors were Gunned down that day
The videos coming out were heart wrenching.
Heavy.
Unimaginable.
Nepal was crying.
People outraged!
But.
I can’t comprehend how a grown-ass man can pull the trigger aiming for the maximum fatality towards those kids.
I can’t comprehend how a genuine concern to call out on an evident corrupted system can have you killed. Not one. Not 5. Un-official data is:
51
I can’t comprehend how horrifying it would’ve been for the ones who heard the news of their loved ones killed.
My thoughts and prayers are with parents
who will never see their children,
who will never hear a word … from them,
who will never feel the warmth of their skin.
who will never share their laughter, their sadness, their happiness, their experience.
Don’t try to write a great book. Just write a book, then make it great later. Don’t try to build a perfect product. Just build a great product, then make it great later. Your initial jobisn’t creating something amazing. Or even something good.Your initial job is simply making something exist.

You can’t catch any waves siting on the shore. Always put yourself in the water.

Laage Re Nain – Ayesha Omar, Rohali Hyatt
I was having a conversation with my Twin brother regarding the need of urgency in our lives.
I have been Pro-Urgent for a very long time.
I’m of an opinion that
Urgency invites change, demands commitment and hardship
Change invites Opportunities, demands consistency and discipline.
Opportunities invites responsibilities, makes like meaningful, purposeful and fruitful.
Wisdom demands what Bloom calls a ‘Surfer Mentality’
Meaning.
When a surfer rides a wave, they savor the present, knowing all too well that it won’t last forever. They fully immerse themselves in the experience, embracing each moment with the wisdom that more waves will follow.
