Hi there!
This is a journal of my thoughts and experiences. Join me on my meanderings.
Cycling from East Coast Park to the F1 Grid in Singapore
The Post
It lurks in the nooks and corners of my memory,
Surfacing and knocking cheerily now and then,
Hoping to find a canvas to land on,
So that the untold story unfolds for all to hear.
Musings
Why does the world fight?
Doesn’t seem to be over wrong and right.
It is by the force of the tethered notions
That the sparring weapons smother nations.
Why a sustainable mindset can save the planet?
An intention is the starting point of a process. It is a given that intention manifests once awareness dawns. The end result, of course, is the desired action. It is this cycle which is at the root of earmarking awareness days as a means to focus on the issues needing collective efforts .
Ring in the new CSR- Corporate Sustainability Resolve
Once upon a time….when the barter economy flourished so did the planet. At what point did the relationship start going south is a matter of research, but it’s the awakening to re-establish that equilibrium, which seems promising.
Building Bridges
The advent of corporate social responsibility has been around for some decades now and it has evolved from being simply an act of charity, to a well- thought of philanthropy, to a commitment which an organisation undertakes to enhance the social well-being…
Ponderings
Celebrations.
I wonder what is with them
That nudges my Self to expand.
Is it the very act of preparing
To bask in the collective joy,
that hastens my pulse.
Humour (man) cometh!
Confession- As a young man, trying to make a mark in this world, I have been consciously trying out various winsome personality styles trending around. Mea culpa!
Why childhood is not “roots to grow and wings to fly“ time for millions of children?
A shocking 160 million children world over are not playing or attending schools as they ought to be doing. There small hands and feet , in fact, are labouring away in some industry, some farm, some trade or worse in some illegal activity…
All Lives Matter
Stop and look…
The gnawing bite of pollution
All around.
Price of human evolution?
To be or to not to be -A refugee’s dilemma
Leaving one’s home is never an easy choice. In fact, for more than 80 million refugees it was not even a choice. When their countries of origin became the centrer stage of violence, conflicts, wars, political unrests , economic meltdowns and environmental calamities, they had no option but to move away…
OF SYMBOLS…
The term ‘symbology’ seems to have gained popularity in 21st century lexicon with the release of Dan Brown’s ‘The Da Vinci Code’ (2003) , and has continued to stoke interest ever since, despite the vehement pronouncements by pundits that ‘semiotics’ , and not symbology was the correct term for the study of symbols.
Many More Shades of Red….on Yellow
Of all the emoji arsenal at my command, the one which is in short supply or rather short on spectrum is the one reflecting the exact biological expression , to be more precise, the facial expression of amusement which I experience at a particular moment...
My Lockdown Experience
Oft on peeking out from the window of my room
My eyes behold a bougainvillea in full bloom.
Not for it …
Importance & Integrity of Journalism
‘The written word’ and ‘the scribe wielding a pen ‘have for long been symbols of the power that knowledge beholds. No wonder that the Media was accorded the status of the fourth pillar of democracy.
Why Eucharist?
“It seems to me fit and proper that (gifts of god) should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged with one heart, with one voice by the whole American people……I do, therefore, invite my fellow citizens to observe the last Thursday of November as a day of Thanksgiving”
