Fluidity of Thought

There were reports of people visiting an artist’s house and disappearing. Inspector Sherman stepped into the house gingerly, for investigations. The renowned artist, Shejin was an affable old man, who entertained the inspector with mulled wine. Sherman saw this fantabulous piece on the mantelpiece, and asked him about the significance. Shejin smiled, but his voice … Continue reading Fluidity of Thought

Challenge 17

  1. Past – My resume line

Professional journalist with a particular fascination for ferreting out and writing about the dirty underbelly of life.

Gaps 

Journalism was a career I stumbled into, more a lazy indulgence that slowly turned into something deeper.

It served as an enabler, a force multiplier in terms of helping me first identify my true self through a very vigorous though painful process of trial and errors.

  1. Present

I am an author, a passionate writer and avid blogger besides a Communicator__ of ideas, thoughts, and skill sets.

  1. Future

I plan to be a…

The narcissist focuses all of this attention … Continue reading The Cracked Facade

Relationships do change with time, and Leila was embarking on … Continue reading Blossoming

A New Beginning

I have realized over a period of time, that the children are happier with presents, than my presence on their special days. I have devoted my life wholly to them, after their father passed away, but I guess it is time for me to start filling up my holey life. May the Holy Spirit forgive … Continue reading A New Beginning

There was never a defining moment apart from the feeling that it was the end and that things had to change.

Like so much in life it was easier to think it than do it.

To leave a marriage after so many years when you truly thought the vows you took were sacred was not and never would be simple.

But when you saw the destruction that was happening not only to yourself but to your children the decision was a lot more manageable than you imagined.

To do so was to give up the person I was before, the cowering, compliant and pathetic self who had grown to hate life and whose day to day was all about fear. Fear of discovery, fear of retribution and fear of punishment on self and those who looked up to me.

I had to move away and become strong. I had to…
