Am I being too ambitious if I plan pathbreaking moves, and take pride in doing so? Bodies that appear divine have predetermined orbits. I wonder who chalks out paths for them to display their brilliance. And is there a god out there to show me the path I’m destined to walk on, for maximum effect … Continue reading Visibility

I’ve had my share of interactions with feline and canine species – both good and bad. The range spans from innocence and goodwill to sharp manipulative instincts.
