  • Eye-opener encounter

    I have been contemplating how people are blessed in different ways. I used to complain a lot about my life, feeling that I am not a lucky person and that I constantly stumble upon obstacles that set me back to square one. However, I have come to realize that I am blessed beyond compare, especially when I see how those around me can enjoy life with the minimum they have. This realization has been an eye-opener for me.

  • One of the Forefathers best ever gift for us today.

    Daily writing prompt
    Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received.

    One of the best gifts I’ve ever received is none other than my culture and traditions inherited from my forefathers. I can’t be prouder of it, as they hold significant importance and are unique in their own right. I am grateful for the preservation of these traditions, passed down from generation to generation, even without formal documents or books, but through oral folk songs and tales. They have been instilled in the lives of the younger generations.

    This is something that cannot be replaced, and its value is beyond compare.

  • Why do I fail in budgeting?

    Daily writing prompt
    Write about your approach to budgeting.

    To be frank, budgeting is something I have never been able to get right so far. Despite my continuous efforts to establish a specific budget for my monthly expenses, I find myself consistently falling short of the vision I have set for myself. Many times, I end up overspending, and this is not solely due to my personal expenses but also because of family-related expenditures. No matter how hard I try, I have never managed to gain control over this aspect.

    Currently, my approach to budgeting is flexible, as I tend to utilize the available funds without prior budgeting. I am actively seeking ways to instill a proper budgeting habit so that I can achieve better financial management.

  • I Mistakenly carried a crochet Kit in my check-on bag at the airport

    Daily writing prompt
    Have you ever unintentionally broken the law?

    Hmm… Break a law? What exactly is the LAW we are referring to here? Are we talking about judicial law, school rules, or perhaps Mom’s law? Hehe… if it’s Mom’s law, then I have unintentionally or intentionally broken many of them. But the repercussions were not really pleasant. Well, you know how typical Indian moms are, right? Most of the time, it was not responding to her calls abruptly, especially in the early morning hours because my sleep always won over my sanity. And for that, I received a load of lectures that made my ears bleed. Haha, jokes apart, I have so far not gone against the law for any reasons. I am a law-abiding citizen, you know. Oh oh… wait, recently I carried a crochet kit in my carry-on bag, and it was confiscated by airport security. It was purely unintentional. I misjudged the criteria; I thought I had it in my checked baggage. So that was unintentional, and I meant no harm.

  • Why “Weaving the colors” would be my biography title?

    Daily writing prompt
    If there was a biography about you, what would the title be?

    If there were to be a biography about me, I would title it “Weaving the Colors.” I hold the belief that life is akin to tapestries of experiences, resembling various colors. As I absorb both the positive and negative aspects of these experiences and integrate them into my life, I see myself weaving different strands of colors to create a beautiful and marvelous attire. This process is a personal endeavor, and I take pride in the fact that it’s not a borrowed design but one that I’ve earned. So, “Weaving the Colors” would be a fitting title, as I continue to collect and intertwine the diverse strands to complete the unique pattern of my life.

    PS: It’s actually coming very soon.

  • The first things that I do is say praises to Jesus for the good things.

    Daily writing prompt
    You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do?

    Whenever I receive good news, the first thing I do is shout out praises to the Lord and express a heartfelt “Thank you, Jesus.” Following that, I immediately call my mom to share the news with her. I find immense joy in sharing such moments with my parents and siblings. As for others, I tend to share the news more gradually, perhaps later in the week.

    I don’t have grand plans such as hosting celebrations, treating myself to good food, or indulging in pampering sessions. I prefer to keep the joy within myself and my family before gradually sharing it with others. I’m not inclined to proclaim my achievements or share details with everyone.

  • My all time favorite candy

    Daily writing prompt
    What’s your favorite candy?

    To be blunt, I rarely have favorites of anything as my preferences change over time. When it comes to candy, I don’t have a specific favorite as I’m not particularly fond of it. However, if I recall correctly, during my childhood, I used to like the orange candy that cost 50 paise per piece. I enjoyed the smell and flavors, and it was shaped like a piece of an orange. That was one of my long-time favorite candies.

    As for now, I’m not fond of any specific candy. If I were to pick one for myself, I might choose Imli or lemon-flavored candy.

  • Take break and rejuvenate but never give up

    Daily writing prompt
    Do you need a break? From what?

    Everyone needs a break, especially those working in the corporate sector or professionals who have been busy balancing life. We all require time to step away and travel or engage in activities for recuperation, just to rejuvenate and refresh our minds. I recently took a break from the world, giving myself time to rejuvenate and come back to life. I’m glad I made that decision, considering it wasn’t an easy one, being a person responsible for the family.

    I take pride in the decision I made, and I would strongly recommend that everyone takes time for themselves occasionally, ensuring they aren’t overwhelmed by the demands of work. At some point, we all feel exhausted and contemplate giving up. Here, I suggest not giving up but taking a break – travel somewhere, sleep in, or do something extraordinary to distance yourself from the workload.

  • The best day of life!

    Daily writing prompt
    Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end.

    The most ideal day, unfortunately, remains a privilege I have yet to experience. Nevertheless, I envision my ideal day as one filled with laughter, good food, and the presence of my loved ones, enjoying each other’s company. It’s a day where we embark on travels to new places, away from the distractions of social media, fully immersed in the joy of our shared moments.

    In this ideal day, love and joy prevail, making every moment spent together special. It’s a day where we share stories and create memories, appreciating the unfolding tapestry of life. This, in my vision, would truly be the best day of my life.
