Results

Every result tells us where we stand be it a test in class or the election results.

Of the people who voted (137,400,124 as of 9:00 am today (11/5) according to Time), 47.5% voted for Harris. Our country is one of the few greatest in this world. Yet, when it comes to electing a woman president, there are many reasons put forth without saying gender is a factor. 

I just hope people realize their inaction in not voting may have led to the result we see now. But I am hopeful and wish for going forward—those who are able to vote and voice their opinion make every effort to do so whether it’s to vote or to speak up in a meeting or at home. Remember--having a voice and speaking up does not have to be an argument and it takes more effort to teach someone how to converse  for a purpose rather than ‘winning’ it.

An opinion article on USA Today stated:

“My politics are deeply influenced by my identities as a woman, a queer person, the granddaughter of immigrants and a member of Gen Z. I cannot separate these things from my political voice, and I vote accordingly.

Trump has spent the last leg of this election attacking trans people directly, acting as if they are the biggest threat to this country. They are not. Trans people will continue to exist even if Trump is elected.”

I just want to add to that opinion that all who are disappointed in today’s results will continue to keep their heads high and continue to work harder to shift the mindsets through larger action from young adults in keeping this country together—united as the land of the free and home of the brave—embracing Natives and all the rest (once immigrants and current &future voters).

A legend & a surreal night

Feeling overwhelmed is an understatement! Started yesterday with the news about Ratan Tata, an icon, a legend who will continue to live on forever— to me he seemed like the Carnegie of India. I had admired him through his brands, Titan Raga — and of course Tanishq (after Chikku was named), and many of his quotes that became strength many a times!

To be..and to do everything purposefully with a vision, with humility, and fervent passion…the name Ratan Tata embodied all of it and he will continue to—for generations, like Carnegie did.

Today, a lifetime’s dream to be able to see the aurora—northern lights…after seeing it (even if through a phone camera) it is still a dream keeping me awake until sky shines again in those different hues.

Mr. Ratan Tata must have reached the cosmos! May he continue to shine upon us, guide those without a purpose to just believe in themselves and that everything will be okay and to keep on marching (ahead)—to remind us to just be the best version of ourselves—always—through the good, bad, and the ugly—through it all!

Ratan Tata (Dec 28, 1937 — Oct 9, 2024 in person and Forever through his brands, institutions, and far-fetched visions that have or will become a reality).

ആരൊക്കെ കൂടെ ഉണ്ടെങ്കിലും ഇല്ലെങ്കിലും—നമുക്കെല്ലാവർക്കും—ആർക്കെങ്കിലുമൊക്കെ ഒരു നേരത്തെ തണലോ സാന്ത്വനമോ സന്തോഷമോ ആകാൻ കഴിയട്ടെ—എന്നും എപ്പോഴും.

Wonders of this world will never cease to exist. May we have the opportunity to see and experience them all and let’s make sure to keep our world safe and wondrous for generations to come.

Mind is going to continue rambling..don’t want to miss an opportunity to see them lights if possible..but sleep i must! Good night universe!
