I want to write again, but now I've become more accustomed to using my mobile phone to jot down thoughts. However, I still enjoy the traditional method of writing on paper. Whatever the case, not having a laptop should never stop me from posting or writing from anywhere.
It's been a while, everyone. After many years, I'm back to writing and doing the routines I've longed for.
I didn’t want to post a lot because what I was writing felt too personal and real, and I didn’t want to express my content through a straightforward moral lens. So, I thought I could create a story of my own based on personal experiences and the lessons life has taught me so far. For starters, I’m going to hit 34 this September.
I’m pretty sure my previous audience consisted mostly of my childhood friends or relatives, with a few others, as I wasn’t consistent enough in adding content.
Anyway, let’s now focus globally. I mean, I can write stories and maybe publish them in two main languages for now, Tamil and English. We can get them reviewed and translated into other languages as well.
By the way, a bit about me: I’m from Asaripallam, a village in Kanyakumari District, India. I enjoy riding my bicycle and taking pictures of the places I live in. Let me share what I’ve posted on Instagram and other platforms.
Currently, I’m working remotely from my lush green district, thanks to Lenovo.com. Yes, I’m a Senior Optimization Developer. My office is in Bengaluru, but I don’t want to go there 365 days a year. Well, I do miss zipping through Bengaluru’s traffic on a bike; I haven’t experienced much of that in Bengaluru.
Apart from development and working with computers, I enjoy all forms of riding and driving. I’m personally a big fan of the 64 forms of Ayakalai (ஆயகலை) . Even though I don’t know much about these arts, this part of my journey is about learning as much as possible from the present situation.
Well, we are very fortunate. I guess the new generation will learn these arts in much more advanced ways. Now, I mean, we have a lot of games in the Olympics. No worries, I’ve recently been learning a lot about Tamil and Ancient Tamil Culture from ChatGPT and the Clubhouse App, which might inspire me to include these in my writings.
Apart from cycling and photography, I love learning about history. I do meditation—not daily, but mostly when I’m active. I try to meditate at least three times a day, and I believe everyone should try it at least once for a mindful life. Even though the term "mindfulness" originates from Western culture and has become popular, it has roots in the East [Not sure, can you verify and add?]. But whatever the case, I’ve liked trying and exploring new things over these 10 years, which may have shaped me into a different person. You might notice this in my upcoming posts.
Morning Sunrise |
Let me give you a quick sneak peek into today. I woke up around 5:36 AM and started my morning ritual and meditation. Then, I went cycling. I traveled almost 11 km in 45 minutes around Nagercoil town. Initially, I took a sharp turn at Thalappakatti and went to Kallungu Junction,Ramanputhur then straight to Thambathu Konam. Meanwhile, I enjoyed a refreshing tender coconut in Ramanputhur; it was a nice and fresh experience, especially when the water is naturally sweet.

After passing Konam Government School, I took the Gurukulam Sallai road to reach Ananadhan Pallam Junction and then got back home.
As usual, I was on the Clubhouse app while riding, listening to the Thirukkural Club and some beautiful Tamil poems in the morning. Trust me, if you don’t know what your spiritual path is or what moral science to follow, this book is accepted by people of all religions; it’s called "Ullaga Pothumarai" (உலகப் பொதுமறை) in Tamil . You can expect to get some insights about this book every now and then later.
Otherwise, I’m watching House of the Dragon in the series. Alright, enough for today. See you tomorrow. Meanwhile, if you want to ask me anything, please feel free to add a comment. If you want me to write about any topic, let me know.
