The year of 2020

As we bid adieu to 2019 and usher in the new year, here's wishing everyone a happy and prosperous 2020!

Based on some reflections from the last 12 months, I have some wishes for the next 12:

May the present times being witnessed in India improve in every way.

Wishing for a better climate (environmentally) - lesser pollution, lesser weather extremities, and lesser global warming.

I wish for a better quality of interaction and better communication - between everyone, across all different faiths and practices.

May we stay united, inclusive and positive. Let us learn to disagree with each other amicably and courteously genuinely without losing respect for anyone with a contrarian perspective.

Hopefully, the coming year will see us get less angry and more compassionate.

Let us gladly and fearlessly share what we believe in, well enough. But even more than speaking well, I hope all of us learn to listen (to the other side) even better.

If we have a better ear, we will have a better year!

PS: 2020 is also, quite appropriately, the year of the 20-20 World Cup. As an Indian, I need not say any further to share what else I wish but may I say, I'd love our team's Test wins (especially abroad) even more!

Cheers to everyone for a great new year!
