Let's rewind 30 years back Bangalore. Life was in a way simple. There were no smartphones, no laptops, no Netflix, no cable TV.There were trees, houses, children played on the streets, not as much traffic. However, for some people, life was not as simple. There were hardly any awareness on disabilities, especially about autism.Children with autism stayed at home, isolated, misunderstood. There were very few people who knew about the word autism and there were fewer who even wanted to learn about it. I had q ...

ironically, the easiest way to know if someone is unserious is whether they can laugh at themselves or not ...

I am now a half a century old and I find myself Yes. 50 years since the last two days. Yes.And I find myself reflecting on my earlier life as a queer child. I don't know how all of us grew up, but for me, unfortunately, I grew up in an environment that did not fully accept me as I was. And it was really confusing because at the same time that I was not accepted, I did understand that I needed my family.I needed my community. They were integral to my survival. See, my family is a migrant family.We were extre ...

Have you ever wondered if your brain is split into two? Not physically, but metaphorically. A battle between two opposing forces. One pushing for growth while the other clinging to comfort and familiar routine. Now, what if I told you that you have the power to choose which one takes the lead? We live in a world where we're have predefined timelines, a set of rules, an unspoken rhythm. Graduate by the age of 22, start your career immediately, get married by the age of 30, and so on. And if you deviate from ...

This concept is, can we change the outer world by changing ...

[Music] She was alone, a solo traveler, undistracted and with the kind of tranquility that she alone can possess. Gazing at her lone incredible beauty, I wondered why it took me over half a century of my life to visit her. She was such a profound being that in her presence self-reflections happen naturally. I suppose at least that is how it was for me because in no time of being in her presence she knocked on to me certain revelations about my own self.How in the pretext of being duty conscious, in the pret ...

[Music] Hi, I'm Amanda and I was that kid. high energy, creative, gritty, but most of all, I was labeled one thing on my report card. Amanda talks too much. This was not one report card. This was every report card from preschool until university. If there was an award for most likely to distract the entire class by enthusiastically explaining the assignment to the teacher, I would have taken home the gold every time. I wasn't the teacher's pet as much as I was the teacher's project. High performer, high vol ...

[Music] Good afternoon to everyone. I'd love for all of you to accompany me on a walk down memory lane back to the fall of 2011. This is when I was about to start college.I was starting college at Georgia Tech in Atlanta as an industrial engineer. ended up picking engineering only because that seemed like the the logical next step to do for someone who was a science student and ended up getting good marks in uh in his board examinations. Entered college and being a diligent student, I always felt that I hav ...
