About Me

I am simple minded person. Recently I turned into a minimalist. I have experienced the burden of possession. To be fancy, I will borrow words and state few quotes that I believe by heart and have realized multiple times during my eventful journey of life:

The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything: Chuck Palahniuk

If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as a Michaelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well: MLK Jr.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.: Khalil Gibran
