Hey guys! Welcome back to Candid. This time my guest is Yeshu, the girl with a puzzled mind but she is just awesome. You can talk to her for hours and not be bored. She is a free spirit and full of life. So without much time waste, let’s start the interview- 1) What’s one […]

Candid VII

So here’s my interview post with The lightning bug, Sheereen. Before meeting her I had this typical notion about doctors being boring, strict and nerdy. But man..she is sooo cool, passionate and super crazy. I had so much fun having this conversation with her. Surely looking forwatd to more such collab with her.

Hi!

There’s something in this place, something which I can’t put my finger on to. Every time I think I have been off for too long and I don’t have anything much to contribute to this platform and I totally should delete this blog and WordPress, my mind start finding out reasons and excuses. It even starts thinking about the topics I should write on and how I should manage time to come here often.


Honestly, it’s hard to maintain a professional and personal balance at this time of my life and blogging requires devoted time, which I am finding very hard to manage. I don’t even know why in the middle of the night I am writing this post, I don’t have any reason to be back here, but here I am. I think I am kind of missing WordPress


It feels so strange to get so connected to something where people don’t even know me by my real name. But I think that’s the beauty of this place. I know I can speak my mind here, and I know I will be heard. And what more can one ask. I guess I have to thank each one of you who ever read or contributed to this blog. I miss WordPress because of all of you only. I can’t be a committed writer or a reader, but I do hope to come back here again and again to read, to write, to cherish, to share, to listen and to be listened.


And I think I am gonna regret this post in the morning 🙈

Sometimes

Sometimes when I am in my shittiest mood and don’t want to talk to anyone and suddenly my phone rings and flashes your name, a smile automatically comes on my lips.

Sometimes when we talk, I forget to listen and start noticing all the small details like the way your lips curve when you smile or how your forehead folds when you are upset or how your eyes twinkle when you are excited. I have never told you, but I am partial towards the crinkle you get near your eyes when you smile. You look adorable.

Sometimes when you laugh, I tried to keep the sound of your laughter in my memory. The way you adjust your hair with your right hand and with the left hand you try to explain the reason for laughing. And the more stupid the reason for your laughing, the more cute I find you.

Sometimes when you hold my hand and lead me to the dance floor, all I hear is your heartbeat. How your hand fit perfectly in my hands and how gently, yet firmly your other hand holds the small of my back. Everything else just turns to a blur.

Sometimes when you sleep in the middle of our late night calls, I stay on call and listen to your peaceful snores and wonder how hopelessly I am falling in love with you and all these little things.

Sometimes I fear thinking of the future. What if we decided to part ways. But at those times you look straight into my eyes and I know whatever the future may hold you are mine now. And even if we ever move on to different paths, I would still smile if my screen ever flashes your name.

Can I call it a day?

This is a bad bad day. If I have to rate how bad my day is going on the scale of one to ten. I am definitely on twenty. It’s a crazy bad weird day. So I have to write an important mail today to certain someone in my organization keeping CC to all the management. And that someone name is Deenesh. In a hurry I typed the mail with the help of autocorrect obviously and ‘Dear Deenesh’ becomes ‘Dear Dentist’! And that’s not all, instead of Regards I wrote Retards. And obviously I didn’t check what I typed and send it.

After 5 minutes one of my teammate came crazily laughing to my cabin and asked me to check the mail which I have sent. With horror, I read what I have written and instantly I wished if I could evaporate myself from this planet. My teammates are busy laughing at me, and I am standing outside my office building writing this post and trying to avoid what is coming for me as soon as I go back to office.


This day was bad from the very start. I should have listened to the early signs. After several cancel Uber, I decided to take a cab to office and halfway through, my cab tyre got punctured, and eventually I reached office an hour late. Just when the cab entered my office premises, I saw the elevator arriving and in a hurry I just ran towards it. By the time I reach the reception area, one of the security guards of the building came after me to inform that my taxi driver is yelling downstairs as I didn’t pay him the fare. Embarrassed I ran downstairs apologized and paid him the fare. The security guard kept on giving me weird looks.

Anyways I came back to office and was informed by the IT team that due to some security issues I won’t be able to access my system for at least a couple of hours. And that’s how I typed this horrible mail through my phone.

Hoping to jinx this day by writing this post and waiting for it to end soon.

Childhood Dream

Remember your childhood dreamFull of naïve innocent believes.That foolish stubbornnessAnd that naughty mischief.The confidence of conquering everythingAnd not knowing what failure means.When every effort was genuineAnd every pain was temporaryAnd when love alone could fix all things. But slow and steadily time slipsAnd eventually you … Continue reading Childhood Dream
