Trust doesn’t come easily to me. I started working at 16 and then … Read More F.R.I.E.N.D.S

On the eve of the most divisive election with all the mud slinging and name calling I realised one thing… that regardless of who you are and what place you have reached there’s always someone (or in most of our cases, more than a few people) who will HATE you. Yes, the capitalised BOLD— H-A-T-E. So there’s a progression I’ve realised now- there are the … Read More Vote for…

It was a world where all you had to beat was yourself…and then for those especially over-competitive souls , you had to beat your sibling or your neighbour and have the better car, the bigger house, the more glamorous vacation or be the first to marry!

I mean he/she seemed perfect … Read More Relationship 201- What to do when the honeymoon period is over?
