A boy's journey through words and the mixtapes. I write every Thursday.
Wisdom — is not proportionate to the years you’ve pissed on this land.

Trust yourself.
Deliberate assiduity calling.
People tell.
People talk.
Unsolicited advice rampant.
Unfair judgements nakedly screaming at your face.
Understand, what matters, matter!
You’re at your mid thirties. Go Figure!
Namaste.

Your mind wants to keep you safe.
She tries to make you as comfortable as you can be.
She wants you to have less stress.
less pain, less to none problems,
have a happy life or at least the feel of it.
She wants to protect you from everything that frightens you.
You might be going through rough waves.
People questioning your character,
belittling you.
hurting you.
Visibly your brain is deep fried.
Ruminating thoughts — draining you,
sucking your energy,
turning you off.
These suckers try intimidation,
terrifies,
gaslights,
pressures,
and step over you at every opportunities they get.
Startling you,
keeping your senses tingling.
keeping you wide awake!
The antidote to all these crap is to come-to-senses.
Realize.
Actualize.
Accept, everything is a facade!
Far far-fetched from the reality.
Ask, what is the most important thing to me right now?
Ask often.
Ask when there’s emptiness.
Ask when you sense a drift.
Ask when you have rumination.
Ask when you need help.
Namaste.

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.
Are you grateful?
Namaste.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Robin is an ordinary 88 years old man just sitting on a park — all by himself.
When asked about how he feels at his age. He says, “Well… it feels less than 88… I don’t feel 88. It sort of comes up upon me.”
He further adds, “The older you get, the q.u.i.c.k.e.r it goes. and you have to make the most of it.”
There I remembered my Grand Ma.
When asked about if he has any regrets in his life.
He goes,”I suppose, I do,… yes. Not marrying the right girl!”
He digs deeper confronting he had the opportunity but he was too slow. He stresses, “Be Decisive and Go For It if you feel it’s right.”
There I remembered my Wife.
As naked as it can be, there will be one day when my ‘Is’ will become ‘Was’
When, stuff I stress about today will mean Nothing!
When, people or things that mean world to me today will be a distant memory.
Live immediately! One step at a time.
Namaste.

Not everyday will be a Monday.
Not everyday will be the bad ones too.
Not everything in life is in your hands.
Not everything in life is promised your ways.

Speak Less.
Actions speak.
Silence serves you.
You — Grind.
Namaste.

The Obstacle Is the Way – Ryan Holiday
1293 days since I landed in JFK on October 03, 2021.
Took me 3 years, 6 months, 15 days.
42 months, 15 days to be able to step into the new phase of my life here in the US.
Today was a very special day.
Good things take time.
But your goal is important.
Perseverance is non-negotiable.
Responsibility,.. more responsibilities is called for
Obstacle is the way.
Setbacks would be an integral part of living.
Bits of rain, bits of sunshine are blessings.
Namaste.

Sahil Bloom
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.
Succinctly put.
Be mindful.
Of your decisions.
Of your indecisions.
Namaste.

I will be moving to Charlotte, North Carolina on January 11, 2025.
Having been living a nomadic life since I stepped in the US on October of 2021; The two suitcase life has been delightfully rewarding.
Who else than Colin Wright can explain this way of living.
Not having a stable, fixed household has never been a cause for concern.
I don’t have regrets a bit.
I take it as an opportunity to stretch and grow further.
I take it as an experience of the privileged,.. for the privileged — if things are full-well under control and fore-planned.
I like it.
Most certainly, it will be a wild, exciting, exhilarating and exhausting couple of days. Probably a week or two.
To settle down.
To acclimatize to new normal.
Charlotte — please be kind, gentle and beautiful!
Namaste.
