If I could write a note to my younger self. This is what it would be.

Dear Anpu,
Don't say yes when you want to say no. Don't follow the crowd. Elders might scold you but it will make perfect sense as to why they said NO to you for certain things as years pass by . You don't need to look like a celebrity to be beautiful. Just be yourself and the world will love you. Write more. Read more. Start a blog. Don't let your talents rot. Improve them. Do not give up so fast. You will not find happiness in possessions. Happiness lies in the simple things of life which you are taking for granted. Make memories. Wear those fluorescent colours. Even when you are stressed don't forget to smile. Remember that 'The rain will always be followed by the rainbow'. When you are worried ask yourself this question "Will this matter ten years from now?". Always Be humble. Don't be naive. Don't trust anyone ( not even your friends) but only trust god. Pray often not only when you want to get something done.
With love
Your
Older self

Lost in Two Dimensions

We gaze at screens, day and night, A world so flat, yet shining bright. Pixels dance, but can’t replace, The warmth of touch, a loved one’s face. No scent of earth, no ocean's breeze, No velvet grass beneath our knees. No taste of rain, no fire’s glow, Just silent echoes, a hollow show. Are we alive, or just a view? A life so crisp, yet missing hue. Step outside, let senses soar, Feel, breathe, taste—be whole once more. # unLearn

His Final Message to the World: Don’t Give Up on Your Dream”

My father’s brother — our dearest Lalu Uncle — went to be with the Lord in October 2025. He had travelled to Delhi to deliver this TEDx talk, but sadly, he never got the chance. He passed away before he could step onto that stage. If he had delivered this speech, it would have been one of the most inspiring and viral talks of all time. Take just 2 minutes to read through his incredible testimony — a journey of failure, faith, resilience, and destiny. The last speech Abraham Zachariah prepared – to deliver at TEDx I didn’t go to school. I was sent to school. Hence, for 10th standard, marks were very low and I could get admission only for Commerce group, as no one wanted (is 55 years ago) in my home state Kerala. My mother was very upset as my cousins and friends got into Science groups and she pushed me into Commerce Group. I was used to tell everyone that “Useless fellow, useless fellow, useless fellow are in Commerce Group and all the useless ones are in commerce group.” She was...
