I started this blog primarily because I had a lot to say. And also because I love writing. I tried being active, though I was merely rambling here. I had absolutely nothing to write about. It was not because I ran out of things to say, but because I simply was in short of ideas …
DEFINITELY NOT GIANTS.
I remember watching a scene in a movie, talking about how different things really are than what they seem to be. Believe me, LIFE DOESN'T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A BED OF ROSES. And that also includes the people. Instead of preaching 'No one is perfect', first accept 'you are not perfect'. Whenever I write …
Why we dread change?
I think we all are hypocrites. I tell others, don't be a hypocrite and yet I am. We all are. I have often seen people praising the poem 'Road Not Taken' by Robert Frost. Teachers teaching children why it is important to discover paths not taken. Why it is important to be open to changes... …
Simplify your life. (&How do you do that!?)
I know for a fact that all of us would love to have a restart button. To undo your actions, or to relive certain moments or to even start all over again. At times, when life tends to become boring and dull, all you wish is that one thing. To restart and do the things …

Things that makes me feel.. happy!
It will be a total chaos if I list out the things that makes me happy and those that don't. But a little mess won't do any harm, I guess. *A Little! If there's any reason that I won't be annoyed at you when you wake me up from my sleep, is if you intend …
Morning vibes!
Mornings were not really my best time. Absolutely not! Let me tell you why exactly.. I slept a whole 8 hours (more than satisfactory), so that was never the reason why I fell asleep in the mornings! The moment I'm in my desk with a glass of water and determined to start digging right into …
A mistake
Months back, I published a post on a quote that made sense for me back then When life gives you lemons, make a lemonade out of it. However, I went through an experience that made me think twice about it. It isn't always right folks. I realised that sometimes when life gives you lemons, you …
Well, 2020 wasn’t that bad!
If I take down covid from the list, 2020 wasn't that bad for me. In fact it was quite a good journey. Not a "great one" though. Started to believe more on my intuitions. Now, I wouldn't advice just anyone to do this but if you have a weak internet signal and if YouTube crashes …
I did a life audit and here’s what I found!..
Same old cup of coffee. Same old desk in my room. Same old me, as of everyday. Everything seems to be too familiar and similar to be interesting. Weekends aren't supposed to be like that. (Urmm, everyday seems to be no different from the other). Life has started to get uninteresting and monotonous. And people …

Let’s talk about smells.
Rate on a scale from one to ten, how weird I am; being the person who loves the "smell" inside the freezers. The icy cold smell. I am crazy about it. Literally crazy! I would keep my head inside the freezer of my refrigerator, inhale as much as I can.. taste every air inside it. …
We are a part of the society that we blame.
This is a truth that all of us frequently give no care to notice. This is the truth that we hide, purposefully. THIS IS THE TRUTH. Everyone, including me, always put the blame on the society. Why are women insecure? Why can't they go out of their houses at night, or walk safely on the …

What do you have to tell to your younger self?
At some points of our life, we all must've had that wish.. to go back in time and do something which you had missed to do when you were climbing up the years. We all must've had some regrets, or something that you wish to correct. We believe that Gone is gone But can you …

Masked.
Before 2020, I used the masks when I am cleaning or exposed in a dusty environment. And of course I didn't like it. The suffocating breath! The constant urge to breathe fresh air when being masked for about just five minutes! However, the circumstances did not remain the same. 2020 taught me a major life …
It’s not my “Cup Of Tea”?
"It's not My Cup Of Tea" is one of the most popular phrases people use to indicate - They don't think they they can do it OR they don't think they have any interest in doing that. When I say popular, I mean, people use it more frequently than they even use their brains!! I …
UnNoticed .
A trip to save your soul? Do you remember all those beautiful places that you scribbled in your bucket list ?.. It gave us a sense of utmost happiness striking them off after visiting it! But then on 2020, exploded a bomb. Locked inside our houses for many days which later turned into weeks and …
BREATHE.
Find a place for yourself.. in you!
Hunger.
My father had tears in his eyes when he told me about the days that he had been through in his life. From being a homeless wanderer in a new city.. to a person who now lives happily with a beautiful family (Touchwood).. his life was no less than a roller coaster ride. It was …
GHOSTS DON’T SCARE ME ANYMORE…
YOU HAVE A GHOST STORY TOO.. RIGHT?
MAKING MEMORIES
Memories are sweet.. sour too.. anyways, they are lovely. People say that each second that passes by, adds to our memories.. I don't think so. They become our past ,not our memories. I had always thought of the importance of 'memory', I used to wonder why people cherish these things, instead of cherishing their present. …
Stop Giving Answers And Start….?
When people ask me.. ‘what is the greatest lesson that you’ve learnt in your life?', I strive hard to give them my answer. What should I say? The only intention at that moment was to give them an impressive answer… but nah! I couldn’t.. so I just borrow! The only thing we care about is …
Don’t remember the title.. but the cover!
I have got a really bad memory. And it gets worse when it comes to things which I desperately want to remember… like phone numbers, directions… and of course books. I read a lot of books and If you ask me their stories… I need time. And that’s how I trouble the librarian always.I am …

The parcel that can’t be denied!
I was always interested so much in colours.. crayons. The smell of the wax crayons made me cheerful, just like the smell of petrol did (Many of you can relate to the smell of petrol, I guess) One can find many crayons and colours in my home because I am literally obsessed with them! I …
The theory of ‘RELATIVITY’… in a more Relatable way!
What is the The Theory Of Relativity? (This is what Wikipedia provided me) The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its relation to other forces …

HEY… TELL ME A JOKE!
Who haven’t asked crazy questions to virtual assistants, like Siri and Google assistant?(Alexa, I am sorry, you are not in my list, because you are totally out of my league.) Google assistant was the first virtual assistant I was in touch with, and if I had the chat history of the things I asked it, …
What do you look for in a book?
Let’s not lie. We all have some expectations in our mind, while buying a book. I am the one who believe that having expectations, leads to one's unhappiness. But I can’t resist myself from having some, while buying a book or choosing a book to read from the library. There are many factors upon which …
The Ugly Truth.
When you are not really LIVING your life!
The Lemonade.
When life gives you LEMONS, make a LEMONADE out of it! You might’ve heard of this quote… and you don’t need me to interpret it’s meaning for you. It’s simple.. just overcome your difficulties. Phew! That is kinda hard! I often wonder… how could people arrive at such mesmerizing quotes… so inspirational and meaningful. Have …
