Zero maybe an End of something or a new Beginning.  Let's begin with me in brief, I was born in a middle class family, I have no sibling and Grandpa was an intelligent man. Everyone in my family thinks that I will achieve what my grandpa wasn't able to achieve, Success. I was a studious kid from childhood, was a topper in my class, had big dreams, which ofcourse, I still have, and I have always been an obedient, sincere kid. Got good grades in 10th board exams, not enough though to get admission in the so called best Junior College in my town. My parents had to pay a donation to get me admitted. Just because I got 0.2% less grades than the cutoff. I actually regretted that moment.  But that was not what I wanted, I actually wanted to study in Pune to prepare for JEE. But that didn't happen, that's a different story. Still, with a regret, I got admitted in that college. Decided to study hard, which I actually did. I got more score in 11th than in 10th and a even higher ...

I am damn interested in knowing how differently people are raised. Some come from a privileged background, some just travelled places with their parents' transfers, some people are like me, who were raised in tier 2, tier 3 cities or towns, whatever, and the are exposed to an entirely different world of tier 1 cities. I feel grateful to the way I was raised. I have seen all extreme aspects of India. From poverty to luxury, from vilages to metro cities and the people at these different places. I believe my environment was very crucial part in shaping me. Maybe if I was still at village or town, I wouldn't have started a startup. I would have been just doing engineering and looking for a stable job with good salary. Being able to see underdeveloped and developed India, helped me understand how startup can solve different problems at different levels. That's why I am building Leafora.  I was lucky that my parents didn't force me in being a thiest and following the religio...

Why do they exist and how are they being used by the people (specially Indians)?   I have been thinking about this and realised that I was also somehow falling for this trap of social media. Sharing stories on Instagram just to impress a girl I liked. I kept checking if she had seen my story. And that's not healthy . Digging deep I found that people share stories to brag, flex about how they are enjoying life and you are missing out if you are not with them. Of course majority of that stories aren't intended to hurt someone. But once we peel off layer of human behaviour, we can slightly see where this all is going.  Maybe I feel it's somewhat good that I don't use Snapchat and I don't really share stories anymore or post something on Instagram. I just use it for the purpose of news, and some content that some amazing pages posts. And that's a relief knowing that you aren't unintentionally hurting someone mentally, by flexing about your fancy food, outings, ...

Why did I start this blog? Who will read it? Who will like it?  I don't know. In this world of social media, where people are showing off their lavish or pseudo lavish lifestyle, I just wanted to be away from that shit. Here, hopefully, only intellectual people would visit. Here, I shall dump all my thoughts, my life incidents, my goals, my values, my life lessons, my mistakes, my present, past and future. I don't know who will benefit from this. But I'm just doing it.  Thank you for reading this.
