Dear friends,

When I sat down to scribble this fortnight’s quota of my verbal-dump on you, my mind was feeling quite a bit stressed out, feeling that all-too-common wound up mood with too many things seemingly lined up to be done. So what better than sharing that elusive rule that am trying (mostly in vain!) to practice – Slow Down movement!

This thought first struck me when myself and Sujata were running against the clock, climbing up the ladders of corporate life 2 steps at a time, in the fast track of Mumbai life. Both of us being in the limelight at TCS, and winning performance awards one after the other, it was more of destiny than by choice that we had to live life that way, or so we thought. Getting up in the morning at 5:30, and doing literally multi-tasking of all chores of the morning in a mad rush,till we find that corner seat of the 7:42 local train to VT station (to catch up with my little nap), and till the time we enter our apartment at 10:00 at night, it would be just another day out at work.
