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…
Day 23 – Adding happiness in my daily life
As I gained wisdom, I realised that happiness is not something to chase but what you experience. And we have to make a conscious effort to add it to our lives especially in this world where we are surrounded with things pulling us down rather than lifting us up. I feel happy in small things…
Day 16 – What ignites your brain?
This question is very simple to answer for me – I get ignited by learning. I love the company of people where I can have open discussion and share varied points of view. I grew up in an environment where healthy debates were encouraged. We used to have all sorts of conversations on our dinner…
Day 15 – my favourite memories
Ahhh memories – that is what makes a rich life. I am lucky that I have a life full of memories where the good outnumber the bad! My favourite memories are of my childhood, growing up in a small town in simpler times. I grew up in a middle class family where we may not…
Day 13 – How have I changed in the past 3 years?
Change is the only constant. If you don’t change, you don’t grow. That is one thing I am proud of – I change and adapt and grow as I learn. And everyday life is the biggest teacher! One of the biggest thing I have learnt is about people. I am by nature a trusting person…
Day 12 – Three excuses I often make!
This is hard but one of the challenges I have set for myself is to be vulnerable and what better day to do it but my birthday blog! I always have excuse about time, or rather the lack of it. I know, like a lot of working woman, I am genuinely short of time juggling…
Day 11 – What can I do to simplify my life?
Ahhh the quintessential question. If I were to start again, I would love on a tiny home on an acreage surrounded by moss, trees and nature. I now appreciate how people used to leave home and become a sadhu when they get older. But as it is hard to become a sadhu; the world is…
Day 10 – What do you feel strongly about?
I am a passionate individual and feel strongly about a lot of things. But if I have to pin one thing, it is the freedom of individuals. I am a big supporter of a free world and power of people. I have had arguments with friends and acquaintances about what is freedom and restriction of…
