Posted on August 4, 2023 by Sonali

This is a hard question – I am happy living where I am but then I don’t know what else is out there. What I do know is that I can’t live in a small, isolated city. As much as I love nature and greenery, I need the hustle bustle that comes with an urban…

Day 3 – What type of person would you choose as a life companion?

Day 2 – What do you love doing that you aren’t doing?

Posted on August 2, 2023 by Sonali

I have loved public speaking since a young age. I used to participate in declaration, debates, plays, dance, dramas – you name it! If I got an opportunity to get on stage, I would be there. I loved performing in front of a crowd. When I got in college, it was different but same. I…

Day 30 – From Pinterest to Reality

Posted on August 31, 2022September 1, 2022 by Sonali

I struggled with this one as I do like to check out Pinterest, mostly for home decor and recipes. But I never copy things, which means that my reality is always different from Pinterest. But then I remembered that this idea of blogging for my birthday month came from Pinterest. So, this is the closest…

Day 15 – A day in my life

Posted on August 15, 2022August 15, 2022 by Sonali

These days, I wish I had more than 24 hours in a day! That pretty much sums up the day in my life – it is busy. I am not a great sleeper – so my day usually begins early. When I wake up, I read the news, catch up on overnight texts from family…
