When the World Goes Digitally Dark
This morning, I woke up thinking it would be just another ordinary day. A cup of tea, a few emails, some writing, and the steady hum of the digital world carrying me forward. Instead, I walked straight into what I can only call a digital outage day—a day where every single thing I tried to Continue reading

Beyond the Curve
There are roads we take because they are familiar, predictable, and safe. And then there are roads—silent, winding, disappearing gently behind a bend—inviting us into the unknown. They ask nothing of us except courage. They promise nothing except possibility. However, beyond such curve also exists out fears. Fear often dictates the course of our lives Continue reading

The Beautiful Cost of Being Alive
There is a simple, almost brutal equation that life quietly teaches us: Desire is directly proportional to pain. The more deeply we want something, the more intensely we suffer in its pursuit.

20 years since my ‘First Step’ into the Stock Market
Today—24 November 2025—marks a significant milestone in my life. Exactly 20 years ago, on this date in 2005, I made my first stock purchase.

The World Is Showbiz, and Everyone Is a Salesman

The Arithmetic of Living
We often measure our lives in years—birthdays, milestones, anniversaries, the slow turning of the calendar. But lately, I’ve begun to feel that years are a misleading unit. A year can pass without leaving a single imprint on the soul, while a single day of genuine excitement can change the entire course of who we are. Continue reading

The only Joy we can Store
We often use the words pleasure, happiness, and fulfilment as if they belong to the same family of emotions. But they are not siblings. They are more like distant relatives—occasionally meeting, occasionally overlapping, but each carrying a very different temperament. Pleasure: The Flash of Ecstasy Pleasure is intense, intoxicating, and unmistakably temporary. It arrives like Continue reading

On Judgment, Freedom and the Strength of Great Minds
“Great men neither judge people nor let other people’s judgment affect them; whereas, a common man pays too much attention to people’s judgment and depending upon act as a judge or a victim.” – Bhaskar Saikia Over the years, these words have aged like truth—they haven’t changed, but our understanding of them has.
