Curious Connections

What did you uncover today? Here are some general ideas to spot new opportunities in the market, improvement hacks in life, or ways to make public life better. Firstly, look for the challenges that the current situation is creating. For example, I see a rising trend of drinking problem in Kerala. So, what could be done and from where can we make a slight difference.  Probably, it could start from the distribution center ie BEVCO outlet.  Let's look at the social message or the culture that's promoted in BEVCO outlet. ( It's a bloody dirty, negative culture - putting all those who buy booze as കുടിയൻമാർ! F*&ing statement!  ( Thanks to this app  https://www.manglish.app/ for quick translation of manglish to malayalam)  For example, if we go to the outlet at Prasanth Nagar side, the cleanliness, the method of delivery, etc draws a certain kind of negative vibe. Is this the way a booze is distributed in a private bar in Bangalore on in Goa? Why can't we fi...

Just came across the video and I listened to it halfway. Will continue to know all sides of the story and also on what's going to come in the coming days. War Mongers of 21st Century War ranges in Middle East and on the Russian side. Things are not easy for thousands of people who are struck in the war zone. Hope there will be a settlement in sometime. 

  Mango Slices Somehow, by the intersection of many celestial events I get blessing from the mango gods - each season for the past few years, I get homegrown mangoes. This time ( 2024) at our rented house in Trivandrum, we got more than our fair share of mangoes.  Also, from B'lore, we had a good harvest of mangoes. Only challenge I face is the difficulty of  transporting mangoes from Domlur house to  SMVT platform 5 or 6,  and then from Kochuveli platform 3 to the exit gate. Even though I hired a porter at both stations, I had to haul,lift the wheeled bag over the stairs. Oh man, my hand hurts badly with the heavy tonnage of mangoes.The saving grace is thought of savoring chemical free mangoes. Thanks to Railways! One thing I always thank Indian Railways for helping people like me to bring heavy load of luggage is the train. Many a times I had carried my entire household in different bags. And, when I fill my luggage space under the allotted seat, I encroach ot...

Why in Kerala has become more polarized about religion? Why is the sudden resurgence of faith in all sects? Is the flow of people visiting  temples, mosques or church bringing a  benevolent change or the society? I doubt so? Or is the rush of faith in 21st century a short term trend seen in select geographies?  Snapshot from a Whatsapp forward

From sweltering heat to constant drizzle Hello Pair in the rain   I have a fancy liking towards rain. And, I'm not alone. Mostly, I think of my younger days when I loved to see sparkling rain water gushing through small drains and the grass patches flooded with rain water.  What type of thought comes to your mind during a rainy day? Is it a happy feeling? And, now for me, heavy rains are a cause for concern. Our house lies in a low ground, it was flooded during rains. Luckily, my mom who stays there was in our house.  And, with this constant rain, mould has formed in the kitchen, and the dirty mosaic floors looks wet from the water sweeping from the ground.  So, rains like many things brings glee and misery!  What's your good memory about rains and what pains you? P.S - Singin' in the rain         https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swloMVFALXw 

Hey Ho! Here's my latest attempt to share my voice, thoughts, jingoism with you. There has been many attempts in the past and most of it failed due to my inconsistent approach.  Btw, if you're struck in life, financially ( mostly) then what plans do you chalk out to bring more cash-flow? Do you plan to start a biz or find ways to generate cash through novel practical ideas? Whatever, I wish to talk to people who are on the same page as I'm. Probably, our connection can mutually benefit to find new ideas or reshape our thoughts. Hope we get to talk and meet! :)
