Aab knows he cannot keep wandering endlessly. Even a river finds its end on the shores of the sea. But unlike the river, no human knows when the flow of his life will empty out his soul to the ocean of the universe. Aab can hear the roar of the…
The sun had set a couple of hours back. It was a moonless night, but the cool breeze was alluring. A quiet road with not much traffic, and Aab was walking along aimlessly. Aab prefers roads that are less traveled. At one point Aab saw bright lights creating an eerie…
Aab does not believe in the stereotype that the rich oppress the poor, the strong suppress the weak, and those in power take advantage of the common man. In fact, in all his traveling and exploring of humans, Aab is yet to find a “Common” Man. The beauty of creation…

The other day Aab was sitting in a park. The sun was probably setting over the horizon, but the tall and closely built buildings do not allow city people to watch this beautiful daily phenomenon. In fact, Aab often wonders why, long after structures have been built and occupied, they…
Since Aab is a wanderer and a drifter, most people think he has no ambition in life. But surprisingly they are wrong. Aab has an ambition – he wants to become a professor of love. He is willing to work hard for it… but deep down inside he knows that…
Aab has never worked in his life. He has never had a boss, and he has consciously avoided bossing over others. He sees people working hard. At times they get their due awards, but many a time they feel they are not getting justice. From housewives to CEOs, he sees…
