TODAY ; )

                  Our world changes a lot

Yesterday seems to be lost

Tomorrow needs to be fought for

Today feels like a no-man land


Laying open, only to be 

harassed by the thought of yesterday or

motivated by the dreams of tomorrow


The memories of the past

Those days went by fast


The anxiety for the future 

This wait feels like torture

What a tug of war it is to live in now!


My imagination is wild enough

My reality seems to be tough


After all, It is these differences that make today !!!


- Bharathi 

A short poem I penned while pondering on what is now ......I'm quite unsure if it's all real and conscious.

(and completely unsure if that even a question ~~) 

I can see quite clearly that I'm evolving, but am I in this concept of now? 

If I am where do I really fit in?

These holidays seem to have begun with this kick start of being sure of who I am. I thought i have discovered myself over the self-learning process, but being out in this cluster of chaos I'm sure I don't want to sit back and watch the play!

Apathy's Anchor

 A lone tree  claimed  the land,    Lost in its own silence .  It  held fast , though winds did roar,  And birds sang,  unheard .  Fixed in its gaze , The cows moved, the clouds drifted.  For how could a rock ever truly smile?  Or a desert ever truly weep? - Bharathi Senthilkumar

Book Review – Democrazy

I recently read Democrazy during a long train journey from my hometown to Chennai, and it was quite an engaging experience. The book offers a satirical take on democracy, exploring why ordinary citizens often feel they can question the system but find it difficult to bring about meaningful change. While referencing the famous phrase “for the people, by the people”, it examines how the idea sometimes appears complicated in practice, despite being outlined in one of the longest constitutions in the world. The author uses humor and sharp observation to present scenarios that oscillate between amusing and thought-provoking. The narrative describes different forms of challenges faced by citizens—such as bribery, exploitation, and bureaucratic hurdles—through a cast of fictional characters: a head of government, an ambitious family member, a veteran party member, an influential industrialist, a sincere journalist, a socially active citizen (particularly on social media), a strict school prin...

Sathuragiri experience

  Sathuragiri is a pilgrimage site located in the district of Virudhunagar in Tamilnadu. The hills are actually a part of the Western Ghats. The name is in Tamil, as 'chaturam' means square and 'giri' means mountain. Many people say the the hill is square-shaped, so that's where the name originates from. I saw that the temple built around the 2 'suyambu' lingam or the two idols that are not installed by any person but they exist on their own is in the middle of 4 different hills.  Our group consisted of 4 girls and their fathers and four other uncles. Everyone was a school friend except my father, our group’s leader and another uncle. Everyone is such an amazing person. We had great fun throughout the entire journey. They all taught me so much by talking about their life experiences and many other incidents that changed their lives. We began our trek from a madam at the foot of the hills in SriVilliputhur. Filled with adventurous paths, I had great fun a...
