Dear Readers, It’s been a muddy couple of weeks for our Community – even at the expense of sounding repetitive, I have to say our Community has been dragged into the national media yet again for all the wrong reasons. The BPP Trustees’ issue doesn’t seem to be heading out of the woods anytime soon. […]
Dear Readers, We’re just getting done with only the second week in the New Year, and already, and again, the Community is made to bear the brunt, it terms of both – its image and its welfare – as some of our elected Trustees take on each other in public… yet again resorting to social […]
Dear Readers, As we wake up to the dawn of the New Year, and the excitement of the ‘newness’ ebbs, after the parties and all the merriment, let’s pause to take in a few deep, long breaths. Let’s breathe in the good that the present holds and the New Year heralds, and let’s breathe out […]
Happy New Year, Folks! Dear Readers, It’s that time again when we bid adieu to another year and prepare to renew our journey aboard a brand new orbit. One of the best things to reckon, as we flip the last page of our calendars, is the opportunity to start over yet again, to welcome […]
Dear Readers, One of the best features of the Festive Season is that it brings us together in celebration, with numerous lagans, navjotes and events, re-strengthening the bonds of our close-knit community. In fact, the season also marks the convergence of Parsis from the world over, to partake of the festivities and […]
Hiccups and Hurrahs! Dear Readers, Life is a great leveler. It is the natural, cyclical order of all things – the sun does shine after the rains, as the rains return to eclipse the sunshine, and so on. Our community has been distraught over an issue that has eclipsed our sheen as the fun-loving and […]
Too Much Of Anything… Dear Readers, They say too much of anything is toxic and will destroy you. This statement holds true for most things – the foremost being our dependency on Social Media for information. Social media platforms are neither known for accuracy, nor accountability. It doesn’t take much to realise, that if our […]
Dear Readers, It’s been an interesting, news-packed week for the Community. First the good, no wait, the GREAT news! The Community is thrilled to celebrate the fabulous cricketing performance of Arzan Nagwaswalla scalping a fabulous five wickets (for 78), against Mumbai’s seasoned middle-order batsmen, bringing immense joy to Team Gujarat and even more pride to […]
Cultivate The Art Of Giving During The Festive Season During the festive season, we allow our spendings to skyrocket – we get a little more self-indulgent, we are more liberal with our purse-strings in making purchases for our family and treating friends. We revel in a smugly pleasant sense of satisfaction when we give to […]
Happiness Is Pursuing Purpose, Not Success Dear Readers, Most of us believe that success leads to happiness. We constantly chase something or the other, that will lead us to ‘success’. Our sense of success is competitive and quantifiable – in terms of our progress in our lifestyle and relationships, and across our financial, professional and […]
Dear Readers, The Community was saddened to learn of an unfortunate tragedy that took place this week – a community member lost her life due to a fire that broke out in the wee hours on Wednesday, November 7. Nergish Kanga was a single senior, living by herself, a recluse – her neighbours didn’t […]
