So much of Mahabharat’s yuddh (war) gets its intensity from B. R. Chopra’s choice of music.

Judith Flanders does. And she has written about more subjects that delight me.

With our feet are attached hundreds of sights, sights containing millions of pebbles and leaves, sights attached miraculously steadfastly, sights that may never emerge when feet are treadmilling.

So what if so many scientific and mathematical concepts are well explained and laid out. The worst we can do is to hammer-spoon-feed them to kids, which we typically do.

Hope emerges in weird ways.
Having a big long work table top, having a good keyboard, keeping good distance between the screen and myself, having a chair that allows my legs good a amount of freedom, give me some hope I shall be able to learn new things.

Another morning I spent searching for interesting titles and books. Today, for some reason I searched for ‘fingers’. And I come across this book interestingly titled NICOTINE FINGERS.
Here’s what the description of this book reads:
Edwin has reached the peak of indifference. At age thirty-six, he’s starting to take a serious look at his current status as a bartender, a boyfriend of four years, and a smoker. He dropped out of college at age twenty to follow his music…al dreams, only to have them shattered by a hazy night of drug use. Eleven years later, he finds himself working opposite hours with his girlfriend Zoey, who is forcefully trying to get him to quit smoking. Asked to play a one-off show with his former band Addison Street, Edwin is forced to address old emotions that he had long since tucked away. Despite his initial reluctance, this looming performance gives him a new perspective on his stagnant life. A youthful, more involved Edwin emerges from weeks full of band rehearsals and late nights of drinking and smoking. However, someone from his rock ‘n’ roll past returns, and he must decide whether or not his relationship with Zoey is worth opposite hours and constant nagging about his habit. After eighteen years, will Edwin end his longest relationship, with cigarettes, to save the one he has with Zoey?

When do you want to be reminded? That’s an innocuous looking question until it becomes headache of prediction.

I have a pile of books lying at my bedside. I don’t feel like reading any. Reluctantly, gingerly, I touch them and then let them be. No more. I have to go back to Steven Johnson. Here’s why.
“The adjacent possible is a kind of shadow future, hovering on the edges of the present state of things, a map of all the ways in which the present can reinvent itself.”
- Steven Johnson
