My stories, My way
One month has passed in 2025. Time never stops and it is the one thing that is so precious coz you can only spend it, never earn it. For me the month screamed friends and family! It is still summer in Australia and the days are beautiful and long. So it is an ideal time…
The eleventh month of the year has gone and only 31 days remain between us ushering in the new year. My November had a few eventful things that I went to which were good for the soul. The month kicked off with the Diwali Party at a close friends’ house. It was great to celebrate…
October is the month of festivals. It is the biggest month in the Hindu calendar. And I love being festive and celebrating them all. We kicked off the month with the train exhibition at Central station. We love trains and I am fascinated by the evolution of the train carriages with lifestyle changes. So it…
September is a month of birthdays! So many of my close friends have their birthdays in September. The weather starts getting better too, so it is celebrations galore. The month started with continuing my birthday celebrations. My friends came home, which is always special. Then my bestie Padma took me on a day out to…
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…

Growing up in a South Asian household, I was taught to “think of the greater good” even before I was born. It was expected that you should put family and community before your own needs. You were taught to behave and live your life in a certain way, the blue print of which was determined…
It is friendship month. So what better topic to write on than friends and friendship. I have been blessed with some amazing friendships in my life. My first memory of a friend is as a 2.5 years old and this slightly older girl in our neighbourhood would come to our place to play with me….
I haven’t written in ages! I have to make more of an effort. Writing randomly like I do is therapeutic for me, much like meditation. I feel better and calmer. So I will try to be more regular! What prompted me today was that I am on a mission to watch movies made from books….
It is one week to my birthday and what better way to kick celebrations than to revive my blog! I have always been better at penning my thoughts than speaking them loud, not to say I am also an eloquent speaker, but writing for me is therapeutic! This year I turn 43! When you are…
