The earth goes about its journey quietly, just round and round. Humans on it make a big deal once it completes a revolution. Isn’t like the backyard ultra where the winner is the last man standing. Well in the case of planetary movements, we certainly don’t want anyone to stop!
A creative take on this as “Happy New Year”
Note:
The backyard ultra is a form of ultramarathon race where competitors must 4.167 miles in less than one hour. When each lap is completed, the remaining time within the hour is typically used to recover for the next hour’s race. These distance loops are repeated hourly. The race ends when the last runner or runners either concede or fail to finish the distance within the allotted time frame.

come outta boondocks
An interesting year that this has been, a year of reset, of getting back to basics, a year of using digital to live and work rather than just pander and become a slave. Here is a creative on this to welcome the new year, promising to be more human and sensible as “come outta boondocks.
Centurion Marathoner
After Siddesha completed his 100th FM in this year, in his felicitation video by ’Life is Calling’, he called himself ‘an ordinary street runner’. The way he casually went about completing the 100 FMs is just brilliant. His shoulder may dislocate, but his running will not abate. A creative on this wonderful runner as “Centurion marathoner’.
Heartiest congratulations Siddesha Hanumanthappa.
feelings
The interesting relationship between developer and testing folks like Kilkenny cats penned as a creative titled ‘feelings’.
Enjoy the #FridayFeelings on software #testing.
why do i test?
Is testing just an act? A job to earn a living? Does it have a higher purpose? Focused and passionately associated with the discipline of testing, it has altered the way how I see and live life- striving for perfection in imperfections, seeing aesthetics in the invisible, being in a state of flow amidst turbulence. Enjoy my feelings expressed in the poem “why do I test”.

Rapid growth is creating more wants, making the world more strident, nature less iridescent and people more decadent.“No more wants” is my creative take on how I am responding to this shrill world.
