A friend of mine recently broke up with his girlfriend or rather she broke up with him. He shared this with me on a clear Monday morning and I noticed a different look in his eyes; they were sober and worried as he told me what happened. As a background, they’d met over Tinder and […]
We Are the World…
There’s friction between mother and daughter; she feels her little one disrupted her youthful exuberance, stole her dreams and messed up her beautiful body. There’s resentment between husband and wife; both feel misunderstood, under appreciated and their hearts taken for granted.

There was an issue yesterday on the Northern line that caused early morning delays. This created an overly crowded underground with people of different temperaments eagerly trying to get on a carriage.

Teaching Pains…
Over the last few years, I’ve ventured into the Private Tutor space in London. I believe it’s somehow related to the fact that my Mom is a teacher and I also grew up tutoring my siblings and peers. I’m a numbers man so you can imagine I stay with Math, which I believe is the […]
