Thoughts In A Wandering Mind

                One of the qualities which has been deeply ingrained within myself is the pledge for equality and to oversee a society which treats everyone equally, by negating everything one gains by virtue of his birth. I never want to differentiate anyone by means of what he inherited by birth. I never pledge allegiance to one group, or I don’t work for a group. I would be very happy to see persons from different backgrounds – small, weak, marginalized etc. doing wonders in their lives. When everyone feels motivated, inspired to rise to the top; break the social barriers and reach the higher echelons, then we will be looked up as a just and equal society. I always like to have people reaching the highest offices from the lowest social strata. This is simply because, all men and women are born intrinsically equal; we all have the same spirit, same soul within each one of us but disillusioned, masked by differe...

               I don’t know how to live – this has been my most significant quality since the last 12 years or the time since I came into public domain after graduation. I might be a clever student as a child but it translated to nothing in the way I approach my life in the real world. I read textbooks but failed to read the laws of practical living. Reading is easy to me, studying is easy to me, sitting in classes watching lectures is easy and it has been a good ride till twenty years, since it doesn’t need any skills. Once I came into the real world, I am a soldier without weapons – the tools required are not in possession nor the program required to run the software.               I lived on my own terms -good or bad, beating the convention and ruing on my own eccentric trajectory. Everyone constructs beautiful houses, it just reflects their structured liv...

                Have a great weekend! Have a great night! Have a wonderful day ahead! Have sumptuous food! Have a gala time! Have a great married life!  These are some of the well wishes we hear on a daily basis to people around us or to our own selves. All the people wish everyone else to have plenty of these in abundance. The world will be a great place if everyone, in fact, has everything required in plenty. But the same world will become sad when the people turn from ‘Haves’ to ‘Have Nots’. It is really important to operate by ‘having’ rather than not. The same people who wish you ha ve everything will come to question – ‘How are you doing’, 'How is your health’, ‘How are you keeping’, ‘How are you working’, ‘How are you running’ and so many questions. The problems with ‘Having’ lie on one side and the problems which arise out of ‘not having’ come on the other side. As we are seeing the past few years, t...

                Leaving everything that has been related to work, my situation, difficulties, challenges etc. I had been relocated to the city of Chicago, three months back. I was just waiting for things to fall in place and normalize after my relocation before I write on this splendid city. As I understood, things will never be smooth; life will have its ups and downs in the journey and let us savor the moment, setting. My journey resumed in Chicago in the U.S. which is a stuff of dreams. Though I am confined to my work-from-home routine and going through all the rigors of employment, I often remember that I was in Chicago – a city I looked up at the top from my position at bottom. Everyone will have few imaginations about a place even without visiting. I have very high imaginations of this place right from my childhood. Let me tell you a bit more about this exciting stuff.       ...

                 In this post, I would like to shed some light on the factors which come into play when working in tech. I have been in the tech industry for more than a decade and there are few points which I would like to highlight that have contributed to my time in this field. Well, there is nothing poignant about the timing but some effort to put together the gist of my time around. As mentioned, it has been quite a lot of time over here and there can be some useful capsules for someone. Let me remind you, I was taunted as a child-worker in the office when I was selected for my first job and joined there. Deep down, I know I am not a mature adult for doing a job in an office and dealing with all the business transactions. Deep down, I know I am not an effective employee with all the tools and skills at my disposal to perform all my duties as an adult. Deep down, I know I cannot sustain and be myself in ...

                 You need to take cognizance of the war started by Russia over Ukraine and why it is still happening for over 100 days. With such devastating consequences for the two countries, the true picture still at bay, no one ever knows why Russian leadership decided to attack Ukraine. It is not fully known of the true toll of the past 3-4 months on both sides. Anyhow it may span, Putin has outgrown any U.S. President of modern times in destroying a country. This is the most unprovoked, diabolical, baseless, illogical war started by any leader of the world. Putin has become a modern-day Hitler, by abusing power and inspiring the largest country of the World to be at war by planning and executing for the past many months.                 Everyone knows how Hitler used war as a tool to propel Germany into new frontiers. Putin just foll...

               It has been a few days past two months since I have been in foreign land. I had already opened up on quite a few topics after arriving here in this medium. To reiterate, I am here mainly because of my parent organization and its partner. It would be good if I am confined to this reason of change and work for them. The severity of work done over a period from the platform provided by these entities will bring far fetching and wide-ranging results. If I was never given the run for this long, I would have never been in the U.S. When organisations decide, countries change and when countries decide, organisations change. I am extremely grateful to everyone concerned for providing me a platform and making me this large. It is the people who raised me to this state and there is a need to reciprocate.                 My relocation has pl...
