Discovering the Writer in Me
"Why don't you consider writing a book on C++ programming language, Ganesh?". "Oh no, I am not sure I have such a knowledge to write the book and all. I might be asking a few compelling questions about why a few things in C++ works this way or that way. That does not mean I can write a book.".

My Manager Didn’t Respect My Time Because I’m Childfree
“You don’t have children, so staying late shouldn’t be a problem for you.” I stared at the phone in disbelief. When my coworker hadn’t shown up for her shift, I expected my manager to at least ask if I’d be willing to stay late or come up with a solution. Instead, the all-female office crew began packing up and heading out as if there wasn’t an issue, which is why I’d called my manager in the first place. To be fair, some of them may not have known since I worked downstairs in reception, and they worked upstairs.

The Shades Of A Spiritual Journey
I've never met anyone on an active and conscious spiritual journey who had or is having a peaches and cream experience, it's always a combination of short and long hardships, easy and difficult experiences, forward and backward movements and then the kicker, a range of emotions. All of them, not just the unicorn ones. It can get really dark at times and especially living in the times we do, where you don't have the clear set path and guidance our ancestors did, it can get even more difficult and lonely navigating that. I've found myself feeling more at the edge of love and hate, happiness and sadness, positive and negative, light and dark more times than I care to count, sometimes varying within a space of seconds. It's a worrysome, haunting and exhaustive experience.

Back To My Roots: The Journey to Remarkably Real Black Hair. Top Story - November 2021.
I grew up in German Town, Jamaica. It's an old settlement of Germans who arrived on the island after slavery ended and indentured labor was reinstated. Almost two hundred years later, the small town is now home to many Jamaicans with blonde hair and blue eyes.

We're Only In It For The Money
I chose "What's the Ugliest Part of Your Body" by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention (the of Invention was added by the record company so try and avoid offending the more genteel minds) bcause at times it is especially if it values money over friendship.

A Peek of A Writer’s Life
In this world filled with billions of people, we are everywhere. We are writers of all kind and in all ways yet we are unique and individual. We have many identities and carry much responsibilities.

You are not Special
Leaving the television screen after a four-hour affair, my brain liquidates to the soup that my mother so vigorously warned me about as a child. Walking up the steps to my room, it’s 1:00 am, I feel hollow. Emptied by the ladle of death, I’m left with a gaping hole in my chest. I write this now in search of an answer to a simple question, what is it that I feel right now? What conjures this feeling of self-disgust? It’s a feeling that I have wasted time. Where subtle anxiety to do something brews yet a knowing that I must instead sleep so that I can do later.

Dear Younger Self
I’m writing online now. First on Quora, now Medium. Remember that blog on Blogger you first created just to imitate that cool cousin you admired? You posted all kinds of random stuff with designs you liked, but now it’s long gone. But don’t worry, I write better now, those honestly were just nonsense you posted for the sake of posting and having texts anyways. Your diary was still better.
