Musings on the Margins is my second collection of blogs.

After spending nearly thirty-five years in public service, from the exuberance of youth to the quiet retirement, it is only natural that many of these writings revisit the roads I once travelled. These blogs are woven with autobiographical fragments of my own journey - memories of childhood and youth, years in khaki uniform, encounters with people and places, moments of triumph and embarrassment, laughter and loss, and a realization that arrives unannounced with age.

The margins often offer a clearer view than the centre. It is at the edges of life that one notices the unnoticed. This collection, therefore, is not merely a chronicle of events, but an attempt to preserve fleeting emotions, observations, and experiences before they dissolve into silence. If these musings provoke a smile, awaken a forgotten memory, or encourage a gentler look at life and its overlooked corners, they will have served their purpose.

Join me in looking a little closer at the margins. Because someday one might move from the centre to margins.
