My stories, My way
It is the end of March and the last week of daylight saving. The days have already become shorter and I now leave home in the dark and it is almost dark when I am coming back home. March is what I have started calling the month of “Women’s Day”. It is the month when…
The shortest month of the year always goes by quickly. It reminds us that time continues to go by and you have to make the most of it every moment. We took it easy in February. One of my goals this year is to slow my pace and do fewer things. Watching the world pass…
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…
