Confessions of a Serial Deleter
Much as I am laidback about most things, I can be quite the opposite when it comes to doing away with clutter. I have this compulsive need to ‘delete’, whether it is messages on my phone, emails in my inbox, files on my hard disk, or even posts...
8 commentsNo Excuses for Self Absorption
At a recent 25-year reunion with batch mates of my journalism course I realised just how self absorbed I must have been in my youth. A former classmate mentioned why she didn’t spend much time hanging out with the rest of us back then – she had...
32 commentsTime to Make Changes?
Have you ever felt like you’re just going through the motions? It’s occurred to me recently that I am doing just that. As far as epiphanies go, that’s not a very earth-shattering one, but it’s enough to give me pause. I haven’t been...

The other day a friend mentioned that a friend of his was going to be a grandfather. Quite naturally I asked when. “I don’t know. I didn’t ask and he didn’t say,” he said. “But why didn’t you ask,” I spluttered while he looked at me...

49 commentsWriting for India
It seems like everyone around me is writing a book, and I don’t mean on Hub Pages, where it is a perfectly legitimate activity! I’m talking about people I know in real life – friends, former colleagues, acquaintances, budding cooks, doctors,...

For months now I’ve noticed that my most-read hub is the one called ‘Going Grey Gracefully’. It’s a trend that has intrigued me greatly. Curiosity piqued, I’ve been making it a point to check my hub traffic statistics regularly and...
39 commentsHelp, I’m a Hypochondriac!
It’s strange how much we take good health for granted. As long as we’re in the pink of health, we don’t care about the mysterious workings of our body. I know I never spent much time wondering which organ played what role in my body and how it...
