I write about the soft chaos of being human. Think annotated pages, chai-fueled rants, slow careers, and the beauty of figuring it out one page at a time. readablyours.com India Joined May 2013

Life update: still waiting for the academic papers, therapy sessions, and caffeine shots that will explain why I’m like this.

Sometimes I think I’m the main character. Then I trip over an absolutely un-trippable place in public and remember I’m the side comic :)

Do you ever get mad at a fictional character for making bad decisions and then realize… wow, same bestie

Sometimes I open a book, read two lines, stare into the void for 20 minutes, and call it “deep reading.” Don’t question the process.

Modern problems require ancient solutions. Like chai. Always chai. You can’t overthink life if your hands are busy holding a hot cup of chai.

Watching NAPO reminded me that love often looks like slowing down. Slowing down to listen. Slowing down to notice. Slowing down to let someone else catch up. Here's More About "Why Napo Made Me Well Up (and Think About Life)" ✨ medium.com/p/why-napo-mad…

some books feel like they were written by a brand, not a person. and that’s my cue to quietly exit the hype train.

I like to think I’m emotionally self-aware — until a book takes my headspace, chews it up, and hands it back to me. #BookTwitter

Still not sure if I finished the book or if it quietly finished me. 📖: On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong 💭: grief, lyrical prose, and so many unspoken things bit.ly/4ixAQUR

Can we call it “deep focus” instead of “spiraling within yourself?" **crying within myself**

As a reader, I don't just annotate books for the deep thoughts I have. But more like to emphasize that, “okay, this line just punched me in the throat."
