Reading, Journaling and Meditations

I acquaint myself with literature (poetry, fiction, non-fiction, folktale) for my knowledge and entertainment. Through reading, I travel to places, I meet people and immerse myself in diverse & various cultures, set-ups & circumstances through the author's eyes.

Robert Loius Stevenson, Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer aptly put it, "I kept always two books in my pocket, one to read, one to write in."
