We find a way to make our lives busy. It’s what keeps us going. It’s the drive, the joy, the work, that we somehow enjoy. And when given free time, we make ourselves busy again. Not ready to sit back and do nothing because something deserves your attention. We end up missing our hobbies, our…

I crane my head to see myself amidst a sea of umbrellas. They are bobbing and bustling by, weaving paths around me. The people are looking down with their coats drawn up to their ears. And I stand there- unadorned and the odd one out. Do I need an umbrella? Or is it fine if…

There are a few moments we experience that give us life. It’s the small things some of us fail to notice, but on looking back realize how much it affects us. It’s something different for everyone, but we enjoy it all the same. When you ride a bicycle properly for the first time, and after…
