In the beginning.. Today, I get a lot of flak from my family and people I know, for being on my phone for too long. I tried to keep it in check but realised that there was a limit to how much I could avoid using it. Then again, I wondered, what was wrong in…
20202020Making a point For most of my life I insisted that I had to make my point while in a discussion, an argument or even a debate. Whatever happens, I had to make my point. If the argument went wrong when I made my point, I never believed it was my fault, at least on…

20202020I had a chat a few days ago with a friend on this subject. It did not go well. It did not go well because of one point – the person did not feel that he/she had done anything wrong. Now, when I said that both sides in the issue he/she was involved in, had…
