I can’t believe that January is already over! Didn’t we just start the year? These days I sometimes feel like I am living the same day on repeat. But what cheered me up this month were books! The books I read have always made life a little more bearable. Books have kept me sane always, even more since the pandemic started, but January was all […]
I’ve always loved reading and I have learned so many life lessons from the books I have read. When 2020 began, it started off with so many hopes and dreams. I was no different and I had a big list of things that I wanted to do this year. But barely 3 months into the year, things changed in ways we never expected before. I […]
2020 definitely isn’t the year we wanted it to be. On New Year’s Day, when we made plans for the year, I don’t think most of us would have considered spending almost half the year or even more locked up in our houses. Forget all those trips that I wanted to go on, I’ve barely stepped out of my house unless absolutely necessary. But yes, […]
I can’t believe that it has been 6 months of staying at home. Apart from the few times I went grocery shopping, I haven’t stepped out of my building. While I’m grateful for the things I have that are making my life easier during the pandemic, I’ve definitely not been pleased with the whole situation. Being stuck in a room all day with work that […]
If there’s one resolution that I’ve been able to stick to for a few year’s now, it is my reading resolution. I have managed to read a few pages everyday for a year now. Yes, I’ve had slumps where I have struggled to finish books or even struggled to read for more than a few minutes. But I kept at it and I’m glad that […]
The clouds in the sky, Dark and grey, Gather together, Heralding another rainy day. The trees once dry, Now all green, Begin to sway, Making it a pretty scene. I smell the petrichor, As the wind begins to blow. The troubles on my mind, I begin to let go! And pitter-patter, It begins to fall. First gently, And then it gives its all. I sit […]
Reading has been an integral part of my life. My day feels empty if I haven’t read at least a few pages. And as the years have gone by, my reading has evolved. Not just in the kinds of books I read, but also in the way I read. In the beginning it was only paperbacks, then read pdfs of classics that I would read […]
I have always been mesmerized by the change of seasons. The sunshine, the rain and almost non-existent winter in between. Each season brings with it its own memories. For me, summers brings about a sense of nostalgia like no other! The exams, the vacation, the mangoes, the games, the books, the rain – all of it brings about a yearning for that time that now […]
When days go by feeling all the same, With hope seeming ever so bleak, Take heart, my friend, don’t cry, Just look at the sunset sky! The day may be drawing to a close, Yet it goes away in all its grandeur. With hues of crimson and gold, Oh the stories the skies told! Like the ever changing sky, Life doesn’t always remain the same, […]
Memories come to my mind, Sometimes for a fleeting moment, But often they linger on, Especially the memories of you. For memories are all I have of you, And with time, they say they fade away too. But I’ll hold on, to every bit of them, Though I know they are so few. If only I could turn back time, To when you were still […]
