It is sad to see the wave of pain and suffering through the world. Whether it is Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Palestine, or Manipur, there is no justification that would ever make any sense. The Social Media only adds to this pus which has been formed and infecting all of us. I take breaks sometimes from all “News” sites because none of it feels real and true any more.
is sometimes so tempting. Just one bold step and one can just slide out of all that is causing this uneasy and unsettling mess.
There is some sort of warm comfort in number of years you know a person for. Somehow it brings in an implicit trust and lack of any pretence that there may be.
Because sometimes even a simple hot meal overwhelms me with lot of gratitude and love ❤️
Amazing how human mind works – sketching beautiful landscapes, painting happy colours. And all this while fighting this losing battle with reality where one sits in a dark, windowless room, struggling to just get through the day.
To put the ink this well on rest of the fingers as well! It would have saved me some nail paint 💅

On some rare days like this one, I take a sip of tea that I prepared and wonder how did I ever manage to perfect this art 😉
And on rest of the days, I am just thankful to myself for managing to put the ingredients and boil them together 🤦♀️
(Sometimes. )
It’s definitely not always good to ‘know’ when you are being taken for a ride 😅.
Sometimes it is better to just let yourself believe that this world is a paradise and the people around are angels 😇.
I am glad daughter has seen me fall. And rise. Fall again. And then struggle to rise.
She has seen me through the darkest times, worst of my tempers, tears and sad face that lasted for longer than we would have liked.
And she has seen me smile for no reason at all. Laugh at the silly “pick-up lines” she sources from internet. And hum a tune or two while cooking.
While she respects me as her mother, she also knows me as a woman. Someone who is susceptible to falling to temptation as well. Someone who makes mistakes, and then owns them, and apologizes when needed. She doesn’t idolise me. And I feel relieved for that.
My failures and my successes – these the lessons that I share with her. As much as I want her to make her own mistakes, I hope that my life would serve as a guide to her while choosing or rejecting certain paths in her own life.
