Hello 2023

Posted on January 1, 2023 by Sonali

Another year, another morning. This new year morning is special as I ushered it with my sister and family. This was the first time that we were together at this time of the year since we both got married, so I know 2023 would be amazing. Like every new year, I set some goals for…

My birthday month has always been special and for the past few years I have tried to do something different every year. From completing the A to Z blog challenge last year to wearing sarees everyday in 2020, I love doing fun things to make my birthday month memorable. This year I did the Blog…

Day 30 – From Pinterest to Reality

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

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 17 – Guilty Pleasure

Posted on August 17, 2022August 17, 2022 by sonalion

Now this is a great blog post to write. I am full of guilty pleasures and I am happy to own up to them too! My top guilty pleasure would be Indian fast food – I can gobble it any time of the day. Pakode, samose, chaat, momos, chow mein- you name it! I love…

Day 9 – My Life Motto

Posted on August 9, 2022August 9, 2022 by sonalion

Just like life, what you pursue in life keeps changing too. How you grow, the events in life change as time passes and that means your life motto shifts too. But if you have strong values, they remain the guiding force for your life. Your priorities change but the foundation remains strong to support them….

May 2022

Posted on June 3, 2022June 4, 2022 by sonalion

It is beginning to feel a lot like winter – sunless days, cold nights! As I am growing older, my bones want warmth and my husband and I talk about moving to warmer places. But then we look around the comfort in our home and the life that we have created and that brings its…

January 2022

Posted on February 5, 2022May 21, 2022 by sonalion

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…

S – Success

Posted on August 19, 2021 by sonalion

Success is an interesting word. Over the years, it has been defined by society as a box that you need to somehow fit yourself in and if you don’t, then it is like a milestone you haven’t met in life. For years, I believed that myth. But as I continued to learn more and went…

J – Joy

Posted on August 10, 2021 by sonalion

J will always be for joy for me! Joy is that elated feeling, the unencumbered happiness that makes all your senses go fully alive. Experiencing sheer joy is a kind of meditation. You feel alive, in touch with your being and close to your spiritual self. In one of my favourite movies, Zindagi Na Milegi…

D – Dream

Posted on August 4, 2021 by sonalion

D is to Dream. Dreams are the first step to define our destiny. When I was young, I was told again and again to not day dream as it is for the lazy. I don’t agree with it. My dreams helped me in defining what I wanted in life. Your dreams do change as we…
