Soliloquies- This day. That year.

I could go as far as I could on a memory lane, when I looked at the date 17.Feb.2025. 

On Feb.17.2016. I attended TEDxHyderabadLive when A.R.Rahman was performing at TED.  I have many fond memories from that event. I remember talking to one of the attendees who said, "I studied civil engineering but, I do not do anything related to it. Do not let 4 years of course decide what you do for the rest of the life. For sure, it's useful. You don't need to discard it."

Feb 17 2016- @arrahman got onto @ted, talking about words, writing, love & music. So many beautiful memories with @tedxhyd
2017- Carrying the same excitement, TEDxers, we huddled when Infosys Mysore hosted us to have fun, more fun and talk about ideas, community and what we care about. Idealistic. Dreamers. Ideas. More than everything, I only remember Mafia nights.
2018- Loving Music & Memories. Dreams were acted upon. Words. Poetry was written a lot.
2019- The joy is in the process. Finishing the draft and sharing it with people who accompanied the writing journey is more memorable than the book launches and greetings thereafter.
2020- The long roads leading to Mandwa, a small village in Rajasthan, that has swayed my heart by the life it has got.
2021-Rooted in Rajasthan, I began to learn along with the best mentors I got in life.
2022- Words.Words.Words. Love.Write. Paint.
2023- Words. Words.Words. Love.Write. Paint.
2024-Words.Words.Words. Love.Write.Paint.
2025-Words.Wander.Words.Flowers.Words.Wishes. It’s a colourful February. Love. Write. Paint.
