I’ve mostly lived my life planning things out. I have a zillion to-do lists – some on paper, some on my devices and some just in my head. But I mostly like having an idea about things that I have to do and hence have some control over my day. So when even mundane things in my everyday existence are mostly planned, trips are definitely […]
If there is one thing that I will never get bored of, it is admiring nature and always being in awe of what it has to offer. The long days of summer that I last wrote about have long gone. Winter is almost here. The days are shorter and are mostly gloomy. But nature always has its ways of making its beauty known and nature […]
A lot of things have changed for me in the last few days – living in a different country far away from loved ones, struggling to find a semblance of a routine and most importantly trying to wrap my head around the fact that it is still bright at 9 pm. Like I said, a lot has changed! Amidst all the chaos of living alone, […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
Things may not be all bright and shiny, but then it doesn’t hurt to look at the brighter side of life. The world today isn’t what it used to be a few weeks ago. A pall of gloom has descended and everything has gone haywire. All of this because of a single virus! Life isn’t what is used to be. Things we once considered normal […]
Often I dream of a door, On the other side of which, I believe lay my dreams and more, That are always out of my reach. Each time it is a different thing, But it is always something that I long for. The wishes and desires, That I always hope would be true someday. Sometimes it is a loved one, Not gone forever, but still […]
You can’t always rush through life. Sometimes you wander through life. Sometimes you get lost. And sometimes, you find yourself. We are often asked to step into someone’s shoes. And yes, we can do that. But what we cannot do is walking on the same paths that they have walked on and gaining all that experience. We all have a journey of our own. We […]
At times, you can see where the way leads you. Sometimes, it could lead you to beautiful destinations, sometimes the way could lead you to a place where you don’t wish to be. But there may also be times when there seems to be no way. What do you do then? Do you turn back and walk away? Or will you make your own path? […]
