Free Spirited Wanderers


We do not become 
shameful people,
When we earn 
society's disapproval; 

Nor do we become good people
When society approves our actions.

We only become a carbon copy of what society wants us to be, 
when we gain its approval 

And a copy of what 
It doesn't want us to be 
when we gain its disapproval.

In reality, 
we are not carbon copies
or even carbon;
We are unique complex compounds of our own kind 
And we listen 
to the calling of our souls

Some parts of us are readily approved by society, 
Other parts are not;
that's alright with us.

Society is all about balance.
Its changes its direction to achieve equilibrium amidst 
turmoil
And one day, 
it will welcome us 
to lead it forward

For we were brave enough 
to be ourselves
And we inspire that courage 
in others.

We don't do this for popularity
Or to win any gold
We do this because its our truth
The truth of our soul.

We consciously choose to be 
true to our authentic selves
And we can't be put 
into defined boxes,
Since we continuously 
evolve into new forms.

Until we are called to lead,
We go find our tribes
And heighten our vibes
For the Universe is our home
And we are
wanderers in our rooms.

Insights from MBA - Work, Play, Tea and Everything in Between

It's 12:38 AM in my clock.  I'm on holidays.  Ideally I could be asleep. But I'm not. I honestly miss the life at campus, where, on a regular day, I'd be in a frenzied brainstorming session with my group mates, trying to squeeze our collective brain cells to come up with a presentation for the 8 AM lecture next day.  I've had plenty of ups and downs, surprises and disappointments, core memories and gut wrenching experiences in a bundle of mere 6 months with this course. Each day would be different in its challenges. Navigating everything  - new approaches to lectures, discussions, interpersonal relationships, the dynamic campus layout (it deserves a Marauder's Map), being boxed into a solo room, finding friends, finding yourself... the list goes on!! - and trying to stay afloat without nearing burnout is an achievement of its own. I was foolish enough to think I could glide through this with grace. I had accumulated so many useful mindsets, techniques, tools and

BYOV- Be Your Own Valentine

Greetings wanderer! I sure hope January 2021 has been a month of reflections, insights, celebrations and joy for you as it has been for me. I cannot believe the extent to which I have accelerated in my spiritual journey and I have my amazingly supportive and wonderfully open minded soul family to thank ( shout out to y'all! ) for being with me every step of the way. Alright, before you switch tabs or exit this page entirely (I promise it contains exactly what the title says... bear with me as you always lovingly do), I dive deep into today's topic (which has a lot to do with the preamble of this article) and announce to your ever supportive eyes that this year on, I am my own valentine (by choice)! Self Partnering is the new Single What do I mean by that?  I mean to say I have learnt to unconditionally accept and love the beautiful jumble of soul, spirit, mind, muscle and bones that forms me. I have promised to me that I'll nurture myself everyday and strive to transform al
