A best friend is defined as the closest friend of a person. We all have had best friends, sometimes it is just one person who stays with you since your childhood but many times we meet them in our journey of life. I had many best friends, but as of now, I have 4. One is my husband, one is my junior college friend, one is from my first office and the last one is my mother. I did not realize she is my best friend until I got married. I was so used to her being around, I needed … Continue reading Mummy

A new friend

Friendship’s day is celebrated on the first Sunday of August, this year the friendship’s day arrived on the 4th of August. I am not a person with lots of friends, I can count them on my fingertips. My WhatsApp groups were flooded with friendship’s day messages; school group, college group, ex-offices groups, family groups, etc. I don’t like to leave any message unread, it was all same old things. A few years back, when I was pursuing a Diploma in Advertising, Airtel (telecommunication brand) came up with a jingle and a musical ad, “Har ek friend jaroori hota hai” They … Continue reading A new friend

Every pregnancy is different & so is every child. My pregnancy was the easy one except for the delivery time. But I bet all the deliveries are tragic and painful. My boy met me after a cesarean operation. I was happy to hold him but I was not prepared to be a mother, not even after nine months of pregnancy. I knew all about having a child and being with one, but theory and practical is way different. How can I stay awake all night and day? How can I know which cry means what? Still, after months of experience, … Continue reading He looks like?

Nothing fits…but SHOES!!

I love to window shop online. I spend hours window shopping because, the clothes that are in trend, are all for skinny and tall people. I prefer wearing minimal prints and dark colors. Something that will cover all the fat areas but will still look chic. Something that should be breathable for my skin. Something that will keep a balance between sanskari & modern. Since adolescence, I have always struggled between ‘log kya sochenge’ & ‘bhaad mein jaye log’. So, I end up buying clothes that are loose, that covers up my assets and still make me look good. But … Continue reading Nothing fits…but SHOES!!

Banyan Tree

When we were kids, our favourite day was; Sunday. This Sunday used to be so precious because we could spend more time in bed, we could watch an extra hour of television and out of all these things there was one more thing that I loved and that was to hold my grandfather’s finger and roam around in the village visiting all the temples. The first temple used to be of Ganpati, then Mahadev, then Khandoba & in the end was Shanidev. After having a good time with all the gods, my grandfather used to meet his friends for chitchat. Just next to their chitchat … Continue reading Banyan Tree
