It doesn’t take long to grow young, Pablo
I’ve been 21 since I was 21. Yes, that is true. At that age I was having my first taste of success, my first real brush with an independent life-style, my unfettered dives into the world of creativity, and a realisation that there was more to girls than they being simply another word in the...
Words too have an inner voice!
Surprised? Well yes, you’d normally mumble before you actually let all your past readings have a rerun in your mind and admit defeat. You need examples. OK. Life is always asking you to take decisions but at the same time listing option after option until your normally clear mind is completely surrounded by lots of...
Weaving a Revolution through Blogs, Micro-blogs, & Gandhi
Do you really know what happened in Egypt? Was there a revolution or just a premature revelation of a stressed-out response? Was it the impending fear of a massive blood-bath that made Hosni Mubarak give up? Were blogging and micro-blogging the real heroes? Did Gandhian principles once again rise and conquer? Or is it...

Some get looooong jumbles and for some there is just a single word. Thus, it is a good idea to play WORD TWIST and be GOD for a...
Unexpectedness is an adventure
You know why I enjoy every moment of my life… because I convert even the ‘expected’ into an unexpected adventure. But then, you already know everything and this quote too was expected! 🙂 See… thats the point. Arvind Passey 03 December 2010
I know its you, Narad!
Conversations reveal what we really are… and not just the way we want others to think about us. This is as true of face-to-face conversation as it is for those that take place in the virtual world. In fact, I am convinced that online conversations, especially those where comments and observations are left for others...
Ravana on Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin
Metaphorically, there are already a large number of Ravanas on all the social networking sites today. However, I was wondering what will happen if The Ravana of the Dushera fame (for the younger generation who understand only through such puerile linkages) decided to open himself up to the hoi-polloi of the world through Facebook, Twitter,...
