Happy New Year folks, its been a while since I last wrote, but well the year is still young. Its just a week to Valentine’s day and I am contemplating what to do this year for my dear loved one, which got me thinking of how I should approach it… With all the flash and pomp that comes with the day, maybe I should change the game to bring more fulfilment given we met over 19 years ago.

This morning during my 1 hour commute to town in the quiet of the car, snores of the kids in the background, bright headlights blinding me so I could not see the road, that maybe I should just be boring. Slow down, be boring, do something regular – go back to my younger days. I am buying a writing pad, and will pen words just like Solomon in the bible, tiny acts which have probably been lost in the hustle, bustle and grind of life…

On getting to my desk, I suddenly realized that boring was not for relationships and family only, but also my work in tech should be boring, unseen, invisible but always there. I should be solving boring problems, with boring tech tools that just work!! And I am going to do just that…

To a boring, but ultimately fulfilling year ahead…
