Is this a revival? | #fablerinGermany

By Ashutosh Gursale2 Comments
Hello wonderful people,honestly, I don't want to count how long it has been since I posted a "proper blog" on THF - why? you can take a shot in the dark. But I've come to realize that in the chaos of growing up, and of moving onto different formats, I certainly appreciate the simplicity of a blog. So, hear the bells ringing! This is not a drill - this is a revival! The past 3-odd years have been a crucial building block in my life and long story short: I'm now studying Management at Technische Universität München since October 2021. A considerable part of my life here has been invested in volunteering at a student initiative called 180 Degree Consulting, a non-profit Management Consultancy that has a global footprint, and leading EduCon Bros, a student initiative I started with two friends to help students in India pursue higher education in Germany. So, what can you expect from this revival? Well, you...

https://youtu.be/p2lajtiZ5GI A Modern-Day Panchatantra: LearnAur | #THFPodcast | EP2 How's it going, guys!? I'm super excited to present you the second episode of The Honest Fabler podcast! For this episode, I have invited a really inspirational person who has helped me navigate through the start-up culture! Our guest, Rupak Shah, has founded a brilliant initiative named LearnAur. Thanks to his team's efforts, LearnAur has rightfully gained the title of "A Modern-Day Panchatantra".  This episode dives into the initial struggle of the brains behind the stories told by them! And we also expand on the narrative of how their struggle can help you ease your own.  I'd also like to draw light upon a recent milestone achieved by LearnAur; They have crossed the 25,000-subscriber mark and their Short-Film -- titled Unfold -- garnered over 2.5+ million hits in just 3 months! And this week, they are releasing another humble narrative to spread awareness about Suicide and the importance of mental health through a very unique story. You...

THF Podcast Episode 1: Goin’ Back to My Roots

THF Podcast Episode 1: Goin’ Back to My Roots

By Ashutosh GursaleNo Comments
  THF Podcast EP1: Goin' Back to My Roots Hello, beautiful people! I hope this podcast finds you in health and happiness. But I cannot take it anymore. Starting every blog with an apology for posting after an eternity of hibernation seems really mundane. So, starting today -- I'm changing that. It shouldn't be a surprise but the past year has been a roller coaster ride for me, as an individual and as an artist. Yet there is one precious lesson that I have learnt: What makes humans so special is their Stories. Sounds cliché, right? Because it is the biggest cliché you'd hear in life.Because there is so much meaning to it that our minds register it as just a try-hard philosophy. Nevertheless, I've decided to start The Honest Fabler Podcast to add more meaning to and to introduce a fresh perspective towards that lesson. Why am I switching to a Podcast? I have been meaning to create podcasts since the start of 2020. However, I never completed...

The Last Life, Digital, 1640*2040 px, Ashutosh Gursale The Arrow of Time: Soundtrack to Timelapse of the Future by melodysheep [Please play the soundtrack while reading through the article. If you love the piece, do support the artist by buying the album!] A glimpse of our Past and Present Life on Earth began millions of years ago. Ever since the first life form developed into a multi-cellular being, we have evolved into what we are today. People wake up, dress up and go on about their day. The ones left to question the way our world works are children, or the scientists who are termed crazy. Take a moment. Look around you, have you stopped questioning the ways of life? Well, d'you remember the time when pretending to like someone was absurd because "Hey! Stacey broke my favorite pencil. I won't talk to her, ever!" was enough of a reason to break ties with Stacey? In our world of pretense, we have accepted the wrongs...

The Right Turn — A choice of fate.

The Right Turn — A choice of fate.

The Right Turn — A choice of fate. I turned right. Even though I knew it costs me an extra couple of minutes; I wouldn't dare to risk the tragic incident, that the poor girl had to go through, fall upon me. I heard all about it from Sudha. Not only did she feed me hot gossip but also saved me by giving me a heads up. Not to mention the kind of stories that would go 'round about me if I were to be the next. (more…)...

A kiss under a billion stars

A kiss under a billion stars

By Ashutosh Gursale1 Comment
A kiss under a billion stars As the plane took off, my sleepy eyes blurred the lights and wandered to my last memory I created in the city which I won't see again. "Where are we going, Nel?" I asked my best friend who told me nothing but dragged me the moment we left my house. "The flight is in a couple of hours, dude. Not cool." I broke his tight hold around my hand. He turned to me for a brief moment. His face illuminated by the distant lamp post behind me. I'm not sure if I imagined it but I did notice a drop of water tumble down his chin. Tear or sweat? Not sure. Before I could make any more objections he ran off the road. At that moment I realized, yet again, how impossible it always is to talk sense with that idiot. Reluctantly, I ran after him. Unaware of the direction we were headed, I simply followed the sound his heavy footsteps made...

History of the Future

By Ashutosh Gursale2 Comments
History of the Future George Orwell has been my favorite author ever since I found a signed copy of 'Down and Out in Paris & London' in a secondhand store. I got it after Christmas with the money mom & dad gifted me, however, Poppy didn't let me read until the spring break. He said he'll be back from the war soon & if he's not back by the spring break, I can read it myself. (more…)...
