on growing up

a mail i had written two years ago began with the line - i decided to grow up a little. only, i wish that wasn't once in 20-something years, but everyday :). i'm amazed at how some of us (read "i") shut out avenues for growth all the time, exercising resistance, towards all things animate or inanimate.

i've decided to grow up a little everyday, from now. may the soul be my witness. i will start with shedding my resistance towards experimentation, first things first. and today, as i drink my very first chai latte, i pledge henceforth to become the experimenter of all things (within edibility and principle).

march is the month of sacrifice, after all. of transforming, little by little, the 'lower' for the 'higher'.
