Two hours too early to leave on a jetplane - out of namma Bangalore into amchi Mumbai, to 'celebrate' the birthday.

No pearls of wisdom. Some insights, distilled and now brewing over. In no particular order..
- Daily living ought to work out of a to-do list. Write it down. Check it off.
- No matter how many times you fall.. Get up. Every single time.
- Life is uncertain. That's no excuse to not have a plan.
- No matter how you feel.. Get up. Dress up. Show up.
- Hunger for growth. It's the ultimate elevator pitch.
- God is alive and kicking. Why thirst by the fountain-side..
- Make a decision. Stick to it.
- Do right. Sand castles come crashing down.
- People - They'll forget what you said. They'll forget what you did. They will never forget how you made them feel.
- Love as if you've never been hurt.
- Note to self: No chai like ghar ki chai. Dip-dip chai is simply not the same.
