Born in Kota, the educational hub,
Got selected in JEE, earning my place in the club.
Stamped as an IITian, I got freedom and latitude,
To experiment with my career - have a devil may care attitude.
Reading Fromm in college - 'The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness',
Left a lasting impression, what good and bad we humans possess.
Started a lifelong romance with psych, how I can learn it and apply,
First blogging, then solo sessions, finally entrepreneurship I did try.
The path had many detours, the CS degree a temptress,
Psychology may heal the soul, but you earn well in IT, to confess.
The tradeoff was stark, between impact and livelihood,
Now when I am a poet and have neither, the psych choice seems good.
Programming paid my bills earlier, it's psychology that supports me now,
It's yet to be seen in future, whether poetry will my daily bread allow!
