Hey fellow soul,

I'm Dhriti Saraogi. I've been writing ever since I can remember, and with this blog I bring to you the worst and the best parts of myself. From 3AM delirium induced writing frenzies, to elocution pieces that I've spent hours poring upon, writing makes me who I am. My pen is not a sword, but it is a torch that lights my path and burns down every obstacle I face. I hope you, dear reader, find parts of yourself that you've lost in my words.

A little more about me

A little more about me;

My name originates from a verse in the Gita, Dhriti means that by which life is upheld and sustained; perseverance. Though I thrive in arenas like debate, public speaking, and Model United Nations where structured thought and clarity reign; my soul is warmed by the richness of cultures, romantic literature and Hindi or Urdu poetry. I've started my mornings with coffee for as long as I can remember, a habit that persists even though I prefer chai. I love most bright colors, but yellow is by far my favorite, consequently making sunflowers my favorite flowers. While I find joy in the elegance of philosophy and literature, and brave the terror that is political science with unfounded optimism, math and I maintain a strained relationship. I keep my joy buried on the shore of a beach, my childhood in a dusty old apartment in Kolkata, my love within the 4 walls I call home and my passion in the mic on a theatre stage. My countless Pinterest boards and Spotify playlists are the life-blood of my creativity. Every piece I write here is accompanied by a song that echoes its theme, or an image that captures its essence (which I'll be sure to include in case you too, are into that multisensory experience). Its a pleasure to have you over at my little corner on the internet, enjoy.
