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 […]

Happiness

Image source Sometimes we are happy and sometimes we are sad, But a magic portion to be happy forever we wish we always had. The things that we yearn to give us joy are many, But why is that when we need to be happy the most we don’t find any? Happiness to some means loads of wealth, For few it is blessing of health. […]

By the lakeside

Copyright: The Reclining Gentleman I remember that day from two years ago when it had started. It was my routine to sit down on the bench by the lakeside after a tiring day at work. I had no friends in this city. That was when he came and my life changed. Before I could confess my love for him, he told me that he was […]

He walked slowly to the kitchen, careful not to make any noise and he decided against switching on the lights as he didn’t want to wake them up. It was almost midnight and he was hungry as he had skipped dinner to protest against not getting the gift that he had asked for. He was feeling sad as he had not got the gift but […]

She woke up early in the morning and glanced at her to-do list for the day. The list of things to be done always seemed to be increasing and with each passing day her life seemed to be getting tiring and monotonous. Her life was now governed by the to-do list and she could take it no more. The cool early morning breeze and the […]

Hey friends, it’s been a long time since I wrote about my 100 happy days challenge. You must be wondering why I didn’t write about. I too dunno why!

100 Happy Days: Days 41-50

Reema D'souza — Thu, 29 May 2014 05:41:00 +0000

And these days were some of the most hectic and tension filled days! Exams! The part of the semester that I hate the most. But it is also the time when my creativity is at it’s peak.

I wanna be a child again!

Reema D'souza — Thu, 14 Nov 2013 03:16:00 +0000

It’s 14th November today. Chacha Nehru’s Birthday. Children’s day. As I keep thinking about this day, my mind wanders back in time- to the time when I was school- the celebrations, the games, the songs, the dances, the sweets, the fun. Memories come flooding back! All I could say is the best part of life is Childhood or I’d rather say the best part of […]
