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…
personal motivation
June 2024
I am penning my blog after almost 6 months. I am not sure why I stopped but the vacation made me think about reviving it again. I like blogging; it is therapeutic for me and I liken it to Pensieve, as described in Harry Potter. I love going back and reading and reflecting on it….
Day 14 – My biggest achievement
My first thought to this question was giving birth to yash and raising him. But I can’t call that MY biggest achievement as that is OUR achievement. My husband, while did not go through the pain of birth, has been Yash’s primary carer for majority of his life. My biggest achievement is settling in a…
Day 5 – What do you want to accomplish?
When I was younger, and someone would have asked me this question, my answer would have been a big house, a great job and lots of money. But life and wisdom teaches you a lot. Now I answer it differently. Living a good life constitutes some of the things that I mentioned but they are…
Day 21 – I am thankful for..
Over the years, I have written a few blog posts about gratitude and practicing gratitude. I have also written a few about what I am thankful for in my life. As I grow older, I become more and more aware of how beautiful life is and how every sunrise gives us a chance to rewrite…

My blogging story started in 2008. I was a young mom, at home with a new born boy, with very little adult company. I did not know much about blogging but loved to read. Blogs were becoming popular at the time and one of my good friends Nell started writing about her travels and life….
Day 13 – Must have Item
The blog title stumped me today as I wasn’t sure what to write coz the must have item is different based on what I am doing. So I thought I will chronicle my must have items when I am leaving home. The five things I don’t leave home without My phone – my phone is…
Day 9 – My Life Motto
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….
Z – Zest
Z is for zest – that unbridled passion and energy for something. I have zest for positivity in my life. As I say, I don’t need any drugs or alcohol, I am high on life and there ain’t a better high! As you must have seen a pattern in my posts, it doesn’t come easy….
