First Letter of the Year 2022

“Touch me. As I am. As you can. / My heart’s a bird’s heart just beyond your hand.”—Christian Wiman

If you ask me what is that one thing which you must do- I will tell you more than one to keep you thinking. It is 2022, there are some fundamental takeaways that I have identified-

Decolonize.

Maintain balance with nature.

Try improving diversity in whatever you do.

Learn to unlearn.

Rule with tempered reason.

Identify social duties.

Learn about- nothingness.

Leave room for nature.

The past year has been rigorous and daunting. The uncertainty of it all keeps coming back in ounces and bounces of nature, capitalism, and all that makes us forget who we are, why we are here. We have been blindsided by reality for so long that my mere mention of it here is just contributing to the problem. Meanwhile, solution sniffs me out in form of Lists- Books, movies, and writings

Tv Shows I watched & RECOMMEND

1. Into The Dark - One of the best anthologies made in 2018 which justified my end of 2021 as I watched each episode, great cast and a timespan which feels like a complete movie- each story is unique

2. Two- Loved it! Two people, a man, and a woman wake up naked and with their abdomens attached to each other. Rest is history.

One New year recommendation of something which you must have entirely missed out on- a helluva lot of scare and thrill to end with prayers in the veins and blood gushes- Into The Dark
