After being asked the above question fourth time in my office lift, I have finally sat down to pen my thoughts. Firstly, to all dedicated citizens of India, I will recommend that one should neither try to understand Kashmir conundrum nor try to speculate over it. Because no good has come to any one with their association with Kashmir. The roots of this problem are too deep for anyone to spend time and understand it properly and the other issue is “Kashmiris”.

Hi, I stopped writing about 2.5 years ago. Why? I guess I didn't like the smell of my own shit. Weird huh!! Well, that happens right!!

I am barely able to breathe. God! Have I missed it? It is like touching yourself again after a month-long "celibacy" vow
