Switching Channels

“The more wonderful the means of communication, the more trivial, tawdry, or depressing its contents seemed to be.”  – Arthur C Clarke

Switching news channels these days is bringing more pain than knowledge. I agree, it is important to know what is going on in the world. But not at the cost of my mental peace!

If we were Strolling Together(6)

Welcome to this space today! Thank you for deciding to join me on the stroll. It’s a rainy afternoon here and so we should probably find a spot where we wouldn’t get drenched. We should also probably get something hot to drink, I’d really like a tea…are you a tea person or a coffee person? Now…we really have some catching up to do, don’t we? 

Tiny Tale (3)

As the flurry and frenzy surrounding the Olympics is almost fizzling out, some peace and calm is back in our lives. Those moments of fewer words and tranquil thoughts, the unruffled energy and quieter hearts! And in those tranquil thoughts, a story took birth within me and I thought it’s worth sharing.

Stare Right Back. What do you See?

“He noticed her. And she noticed, and kept on noticing, him.” – Amelia Mangan

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.” – Rabindranath Tagore

“Seeing bored-looking fans staring at you while you DJ is about as horrible as it gets.” – Boy George

“I was getting old, man. I was staring 27 in the face.” – Charlie Bell

“I can’t stop staring at my beautiful new baby.” – Abbey Clancy

A stare could mean many a things.

Coach-ing to Glory

If the Harry Potter world was real and I was a part of the magical universe and not this muggle world, the newspapers would probably scream out news about who escaped from Azkaban or who won Quidditch championships! But here in muggle world, the newspapers continue to report the happenings at the Rio Olympics 2016. 

Butterflies in my Stomach?

Ah, the smile escaped my lips…the one I meant to hold within…that feeling of first love! I always wondered if it happens for real – the jitters, the sighs, the butterflies! Man, it does!

The Versatile Blogger Award – Ta Da!

Welcome to my space today. Thank you for clicking whatever link brought you here! It is always lovely to have people over and it is even more amazing to have you over when I have nice things to share. And today is one such day!!!

I have been presented The Versatile Blogger Award by two very wonderful bloggers – Belle Papillon (who writes wonderful stuff – empowering, strong, liberating!) and Adarsha Kharel (who writes straight-from-the-heart poetry that is fresh and honest!). It feels amazing to have received the award twice in a week and this post is long overdue but it’s about time I do the needful!

Another Liebster!

This is incredible! I just won another Liebster Award 🙂 Given that this is to welcome new bloggers with love and affection and like Rob (click his name to visit his site, it’s amazing!) calls it, it’s German and translates to something like Dearest Award, I am most happy to accept the award again! Since this is my 4th Liebster, I will only stick to the Q/A (also because I love that section)!

Also it’s a beautiful Sunday morning here…answering the Liebster questions while sipping on some coffee is pure fun! Join in on the ride…

A Morning in Ahmedabad

There’s something about mornings. The lull as it awakens, the steady increase in activity, the sudden bursts of energy, the rehearsed routines of every household! The sleepy smiles, the daily news, the cup of coffee and the different views. I sit on the couch, lost in my thoughts and observing things around em, all at once.

What Happened to Me?

Blesson Mathew who writes here has sent me some beautiful pictures clicked by him for a collaborative post. Bringing to you a collaboration where the words are mine but the image his! We both hope you like the effort folks!
