Today’s question is “The most important qualities in a friend” I have always had friendships based on common values and alignment of energies. As we grow and change as individuals, our priorities and energies change and friendships fall by and by. There is nothing wrong with that – it is just how life is. In…

Day 5 – Gratitude
Today’s question – “ What are you most grateful for?” I am grateful for everything in my life – my family, my home, my job and every day I wake up for all that I have. But what I am most grateful for is the positive energy that the universe has bestowed upon me. I…
Day 4 – Home
Today’s question – What place do you consider your home? For an immigrant in another country, this is one of the hardest question. Over my life, I have lived in many houses and I have memories of every single one of them. Initially my father rented a few houses but it was always his firm…
Day 3 – Dream
Today’s question is “Your biggest dream” My biggest dream is to travel freely. I have always been a bit of a hippie and a free spirit. I am curious and like to explore. So travel has always been my biggest dream. Growing up in a modest home, travel meant visiting extended family. It was only…
Day 2 – Success
Today’s question is “Do you feel successful in life?” This is a question that is close to my heart and I have written a few articles on it. I grew up in India where the idea of what success looked like was defined by the society – study with excellent marks, do a professional course,…

July 2024
Winter months are for hibernation but as humans even though we store, we don’t hibernate and rest. I have learnt to balance. I either like to travel to warmer places or try and stay put at home as much as possible. This month I focussed on my reading. I took advantage of the Prime Day…
Day 26 – 5 things that make me smile
I am a smiling person by disposition. My husband calls me the sunshine but that does put a lot of pressure in me as the mood in the home is dependent on how much sunshine I can dispense 😀 As I am always smiling, most people start asking questions and assume that something is wrong…
Day 25 – My Perfect Day
I long since stopped chasing perfection. It only adds to stress and anxiety. Instead I chase progress and improvement. So when I am describing my perfect day, it possibly will not go exactly as I am describing but close enough would do 🙂 My day would start by waking up after a full night sleep….
Day 24 – What worries me most?
I am not a worrier. I have never been the one to brood even as a child. I was called happy go lucky when I was young and as I grew older, I took life in my stride with all its disappointments, accolades and ups and downs. My mantra is let life flow and I…
