“Life is not a list of checkboxes that we have to tick off sequentially one after another. Got a degree? Tick. Booked a house under my name? Tick. Got married? Tick. Had Children? Tick.

“I feel that human desires are absolutely necessary. They keep us alive. So, we shouldn’t frown upon them. And instead, should embrace them with open arms. They are what makes us human. I am of the view that not wanting anything is a sign of depression. Therefore, I pray to God that I never become complacent.”
