Am trying to focus on the small things that make me happy, that I can control..because the anxieties of the world is so cruel, the juggernaut of destruction so bent towards power and driven by the engine of greed. I hope this helps.
But wait... This is just the playbook.

I love finding old notes from other readers in books I read. Like this one. From a Bic to his/her brother "siblerino" :)

If you should recognise these words...well I am happy to reunite you to the note.

Early mornings on a Sunday is a magical hour. Coffee at a friend's porch. Me, sitting on the ground ofcourse...as close as possible to this beautiful nature.

America, bringing Blacks in shackles, throwing out Browns in shackles. Putting Reds in reservation camps, putting Yellows in containment camps.

You don't become "greatest country" just like that you know.

Found a page with sketches of ancient ruins in Delhi 💝. I love her ruins. I love her.

Such a beautiful city but also such a tale of impermanence.

For, beauty ends, greatness crumbles, civilisations fall...and we can all stop feeling bad when the current era of American hegemony ends. Hahahahah

What am I reading simultaneously..as in a chapter here and a chapter there

1) Mistry is such a wonderful writer! I can almost hear his Parsi characters talk in their patois

2) Loved the way Lee writes in his breezy Aussie way about the history of transport here in Oz

3) Grayling may...

One of the few articles discussing the suspect and not some random fireworks is this Newsweek article.

PS. I also love the left-neutral-rught leaning metre that NW has at the end of its articles. Fun

'"With enough determination, any bloody idiot can get up this hill", Hall observed. "The trick is to get back down alive."'

I think this is something I should remember about the roller coaster of life and my tendency to get sucked into things that don't give me joy, like a corporate career.

I am as always...on the losing side 😔...

Please give us something to hope for. Please give us now...maybe...Muad'dib. We are so hopeless now that we hope for miracles.
