Every year, on the last day, I take stock of the time gone by and my learnings. As humans, we have a tendency to look forward and how far do we have to go. But from time to time, it is great to look back and look at how far we have come and what…

Day 16 – Mention another blogger
I read a lot of blogs but follow only a few, mostly food blogs. I have yet to find a life blog like mine, so happy for you guys to refer a few to me. So, in that vein, the only blogger I would like to mention is my sister Kamna Kirti. She is an…
Day 12 – Monthly goals
It was my birthday. I have grown a year older, a year wiser and a year closer to mortality. I feel loved every day but I was grateful for all the love showered by everyone near and far yesterday. It made me feel very special. My monthly goals haven’t changed since the start of the…
Day 3 – Playlist of the week
Music is food for soul, at least for me. I listen to music when I can’t sleep, am not feeling well or just feeling low. It makes me feel better instantly and helps uplift my mood. I have learnt classical music, so apart from listening, I love to sing too. My music choices for the…

March 2022
And just like that, a quarter of the year is over. It doesn’t matter whether we are living our life or just existing, time continues to slip. I went backwards this month. I am not even sure how or why but I stopped my walks, my mental health was not the best and I struggled…
January 2022
Wow- I can’t believe January is already gone in this brand new year and we are already a few days in February. As I am writing this I am reminded of something I read – The trouble is, we think we have time. Such a powerful statement and a constant reminder of our mortality. This…
Positive Boundaries
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…
Welcome 2022
Ushering in a new year is always exciting – it reminds me of hope, new beginnings and time to start a new chapter. For the past few years, I have been blogging on the first day of the year and setting some goals for myself. Of course the past two years have thrown the best…
