Boredom is my nemesis and bores me. Throw in a pow Boredom is my nemesis and bores me. Throw in a power outage or a dead internet connection, and I'm practically climbing the walls. As I've probably mentioned in countless posts by now, I'm currently living solo in my dream house in Kerala. It's not all bad, thoughI've got plenty of ways to pass the time. I can whip up a meal (just for me), tinker in the garden, or give the house a good scrub....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/22/what-bores-you/
My favorite people to be around are my wife and so My favorite people to be around are my wife and son. We are a small, close-knit nuclear family, and I prefer it that way. Over the years, I've realized that not everyone in the larger circle truly has my best interests at heart. That said, loving my family doesn't mean we have a perfect relationship. We argue, we shout, and we frustrate each other but at the end of the day, we always have each other's backs. And to me, that's what family is all about.https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/20/who-are-your-favorite-people-to-be-around/
One of the most meaningful gifts I have ever recei One of the most meaningful gifts I have ever received was a piece of land in my home state of Kerala. It was my grandfather's foresight and generosity that made this possible his will included a clause gifting a plot of land equally to my parents and "the children born of them." This land, situated right in the heart of my home town, is incredibly valuable....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/18/share-one-of-the-best-gifts-youve-ever-received/
Budgeting, for me, is straightforward I live well Budgeting, for me, is straightforward I live well within my means. And by "within," I mean way within my means. My financial philosophy follows an 80-20 rule: I save 80% of my income and spend only 20%. My wife and I are firm believers in this disciplined approach, and now, we've passed it on to our son as well. Financial prudence is a value we strongly uphold as a family....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/17/write-about-your-approach-to-budgeting/
To me, patriotism or being patriotic is more than To me, patriotism or being patriotic is more than just a sentimentit's a commitment. It begins with a deep love for one's country, free from the labels of politics, religion, gender, or race. True patriotism isn't about division; it's about unity and a genuine concern for the well-being of fellow citizens. On a personal level, I've dedicated years of my life to serving in government departments focused on national security....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/16/are-you-patriotic-what-does-being-patriotic-mean-to-you/

Like the time I bribed a train inspector ten rupees for a seat yes, life was cheap back then. Or when I jumped a red light on an empty road, feeling like a rebel but really just in a hurry....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/15/have-you-ever-unintentionally-broken-the-law/
If my life got a biography, its title might be A P If my life got a biography, its title might be A Phoenix Rising or A Survivor's Story. Like many others on this planet, my journey has been one of resilience fighting to make ends meet, navigating hardships, and carrying the scars of each chapter. Every phase left its marks, every decade its lessons. Yet, after five decades, I am still here standing tall, unbroken, and proud. Perhaps that's what makes life truly meaningful: the strength to rise, the will to endure, and the wisdom to appreciate the journey.https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/14/if-there-was-a-biography-about-you-what-would-the-title-be/
At 56, I find myself reflecting on my parents at t At 56, I find myself reflecting on my parents at this age. My father, an Army officer, was settling into retirement, while my mother, a dedicated homemaker, embraced the quiet life in our home in Kerala. They were winding down, preparing for a peaceful, settled existence. In some ways, I see myself following a similar pattern but with a twist. I now split my time between Kerala and Mumbai, two places that have shaped my journey in different ways....https://manojnaironline.wordpress.com/2025/02/13/what-were-your-parents-doing-at-your-age/
