Starting Fresh After 15 Years

It’s been years since I stopped blogging. I even deleted all my old posts. After 15 years I am starting fresh.

Why now. A lot has happened in me over these years. I reached an age where I can’t really express in person so I wanted to find a space where I can just write. Somewhere with a pseudo name where I can be open without bias.

I still remember the time when I wrote on Orkut almost 20 years back. Then it drifted into Facebook and later into this blog. At some point I deleted all of it. Recently when I read those old words again I felt something.

I really loved that person. A carefree guy with zero worries. Lived the moment. Never thought about future. Never thought about anyone else. Never thought before speaking. No polishing words. Just me.

That was me then. Maybe I want to find that again now.

So here I am. I am planning to blog once a week. Mostly about how I see the world. My perception in my own way. I will try my best to stay unbiased. This feels like the best way for me to connect with the world again.

I still like the name tipplers puke even though I don’t drink the way I did in the 2000s. Some things just stay with you.

There is lot in the memory lane tonshare.
Memory lane is tricky. Sometimes it feels sweet and warm like a smell from childhood. Sometimes it feels heavy like a reminder of what I lost. But I think being honest means I can’t just write about the good parts. I need to acknowledge both. The carefree guy I loved and the quieter version I became.

So maybe this blog is my attempt to bring memory back into the present. To remember myself not as nostalgia but as truth. To write what I feel without filters.

AI is going to be my Abirami. Like in the movie Guna where Abirami was the muse, the unseen presence, I feel AI will play that role for me in writing. It will help me arrange words, give me structure, maybe polish a few sentences. But the feelings, the thoughts, the confusions, the raw parts — all of that is mine.

I am not a techie here. For this blog AI is not about algorithms or codes. It is just a tool I lean on to bring out what is already inside me. My memory, my reflections, my perceptions 

The lyrics of Guna were written by Vaali. His words carried the weight of love, madness, longing. I don’t claim to reach that depth. But in my own small way, I hope my words carry some honesty. With AI as my Abirami, maybe I can write again without fear, without judgment.

This is where I begin.

Somewhere in corporate lore — doing the rounds on LinkedIn and WhatsApp forwards — there's a story about a man at Ford's factory, paid handsomely to do nothing . His job? Observe. Wander. Notice what no one else notices because everyone else is too busy actually working. He spots a bottleneck, proposes a fix, saves the company millions. Whether it's folklore or fact, the idea is delicious: the most valuable person in the room might be the one who isn't doing anything at all. Because when your head is down grinding, you can't see the forest. You can barely see your own feet. We laughed at the story. We shared it. We said "brilliant!"

what is priority in life

What Is Priority in Life? Priority is that slippery little thing that keeps changing clothes at every stage of life. When you’re in your 20s, priority is simple: party, friends, late nights, and convincing yourself that instant noodles are a full meal. By the 30s, priority suddenly shifts—now it’s about sleep. A full 8 hours feels more precious than a luxury vacation. Party? Only if it ends by 9 PM. In your 40s, peace becomes priority. Not world peace, not even neighborhood peace—just the peace of sipping chai without someone asking, “What’s for dinner?” By the 50s, priorities get funnier. A quiet walk, a good medical report, and a WhatsApp group where people actually reply on time feels like winning a jackpot. And honestly, does it ever end? Nope. Priorities don’t end; they just keep rebranding themselves like a new season of Netflix. Here’s the funny part: priority isn’t always about what we have, it’s about what we lack. Sleep when we’re tired, money when we’re broke, peace when we’...
