A lawyer by profession. A cynic by observation. Civilised in conduct. Uncompromising in thought. Occasionally amused by humanity.

Let me run and lie on the grass again Let me check my favourite toy in the first morning light Let me share my tiffin with my buddy again Let me draw a cartoon on the page of my book again Let me come home with dirty clothes again Let me get scared just looking at a shadow again Let me laugh seeing my brother cry again Let me get jealous of my sister again Let me be stupid again Let me live again, let me dream again....

A person with good energy can be felt from thousands of miles away, without meeting, seeing or speaking to them.

The ones who can understand how your day is going just by the way you say " Hi" are the ones you need to keep close in your life.

The Halt : Thousands of footfalls, everyone with a destination. Some leave, some arrive. That old single fluorescent tube, flickering for years, no one bothers to change it. A few stray dogs walk the track, searching for the day's last meal. Tonight the sky is brighter than usual, firecrackers bursting above, yet another ordinary night at a nameless railway halt. An old beggar makes his bed in the corner under a torn blanket, without a goodnight to anyone. No one has ever asked him, "What is your idea of life?" Maybe it's better that no one did.

Dostoevsky was right when he said: โ€œI want to talk about everything to at least one person as I talk about things with myself.โ€

How does it feel to sit as a showpiece in a couple's home, watching them fight every day?
If you could ask Buddha one question today, what would it be??

Kind, sensitive people give you more chances than you deserve, but once they leave, they leave forever. For them, you no longer exist.

They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I wonder, what keeps the lawyer away? ๐Ÿค”

No worries, I'm not about to get into an argument with you. I only argue professionally, and that too when I'm paid for it.

One of my friends went to watch Ramayana and booked a recliner. Someone at the movie theatre told him, "Bhagwaan ki taraf pair mat karo."

Absolutely. I believe in democracy: win with the majority and accept the dislike of a few.
Are you okay with being disliked by people???

Someone asked , "What's your goal on X/Twitter?" And I was genuinely BLANK. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜’ I've been here for almost 11 years. Eleven. And it never once occurred to me that people actually join this place with a goal. I thought we were all just here to scroll, rant, overshare, laugh at strangers and occasionally question humanity. Apparently, there's an agenda. A strategy. A purpose. Damn. I think I've been using this platform wrong for the last decade. Maybe I really don't belong here.
