" Everybody's Talented "- Look, talent comes everywhere. Everybody’s talented. Bet everybody in this world is talented in one thing or another. But having something to say and the way to say it so people listen to it, that’s whole another bag. And unless you get out there and you try to do it, you will never know . That’s the truth.

The purpose of the life could be served by allowing our creative facet to surface, our unique voice heard for the larger good of the people.
( Excerpts from The Speaking Tree ) - Each person on this planet is living a vivid and complex life. Each person’s life is shaped by their experiences that changes their perspective on life and the wisdom they get from the environment around them.

Because it is their world. It’s no longer our world. They are on the right side of the relevance curve; we are on the wrong. We have to fight harder to stay relevant.

There is craziness in holidaying, partying, dancing, celebrating. Yes, there is a radical, unexpected behavioural change and everyone could identify with that. Mental health experts attest to the phenomenon. Says Mumbai-based psychiatrist Dr. Kedar Tiles: ” People want to find silver lining to the pandemic. The sudden realization that life is short makes many to want to do more things that bring them peace and make them happy.” The world has seen it before soon after the end of World War II there was a boom in the sales of consumable goods like cars, washing machines considered luxuries at that time. Undoubtedly, the world has changed so much that it is never going back to what it was.
