Freedom?
Posted: January 25, 2013 Filed under: reflection | Tags: analyst, beginner, Blogger, competitor, contradictions, duality, father, founder, insight, lessons learned, pragmatist, private Comments OffWhen you label your self,
… a Blogger, don’t lose the freedom to keep it to yourself;
a Visionary, don’t lose the freedom to spot the obvious;
in Love, don’t lose the freedom to be hurt;
a Leader, work hardest to hang on to the freedom to follow;
a Competitor, don’t lose the freedom to be inspired;
a Pragmatist, don’t lose the freedom to imagine;
Well-spoken, don’t lose the freedom to speak with silence;
a Father, always nurture the freedom to play;
a Founder, never lose the freedom to fail;
… Enlightened?
Feel for you. You will indeed miss the freedom that comes with ignorance and change.

Canoes.
Awaiting passengers.
Already home, nowhere to go.
A house boat chugs through the morning haze on Lake Vembanad. The day after rains in the area.

A Different Kind of Light
Posted: November 13, 2012 Filed under: disruptive | Tags: Diwali, Hindu, Holidays, Margeurite Theophil, Milky Way, Night sky 2 Comments »Margeurite Theophil writes about how we needed to embrace darkness (Learn to Love the Dark). I thought it was a wonderful article, one that asks that we flip our mind and consider a new way of looking at darkness. In an idealist sense, darkness as simply another kind of light.
A few hours ago, I drove around town looking for an open store to buy diapers. Amidst the smoke of bursting crackers, illuminating sky rockets and the lights from the numerous structures I thought to myself, I’d like to wish you a different kind of Diwali. Perhaps a quiet, smokeless Diwali. A Diwali that will allow you to gaze upon the true, awe-inspiring, all pervasive night sky, its medley of infinite stars and the Milky Way. The same night sky we always have above our heads, obscured and ignored.
So with that wish in mind, Wish you a Happy Diwali!
