Is a place and time like this.. Nothing to feel stressed about, no reason to rush.. Just stay still and enjoy the moment..

It’s about time for the weekend to end and I can’t really wait for the next one. Sometimes I feel as if I’m only living to enjoy weekends 😀 This month had been an active one for me as I got some time to write and post them here. If you haven’t got a chance…

Ramadan is my favorite time of the year just like Christmas, Easter or Diwali. No. No. I’m not disclosing my faith here. I’m just about to share my story with one of them. My love for Azaan began when I was in school. Next to our school, was a big mosque. It stood tall and…

Life is a gift wrapped and breathed into us on our birth-day and each day in our lifetime it surprises us in special ways. ~ Ayesha

Just a few hours ago, I posted my blog on the Liebster Award. Now, I am so pleased to write a post on “The Blogger Recognition Award”. The only difference is that I’m self-nominating myself 😛 because I was nominated for something else by a very creative and dear writer PoeticBells but I accidentally wrote…

It has been raining awards lately and I don’t know where to start. I am so overwhelmed by the support of my readers especially to ApprendiZ for nominating me for “The Liebster Award”. Even though I was not one of those who ever had a liking for poetries during my childhood, WordPress has definitely started…

Now that I have started writing, I still can’t believe in those two words “I write”. A year back, it never seeped into my mind to start writing. And now, with every new post of my mine I can see myself improving gradually. I’m not competing with the world. I’m competing with myself. There is…

Yes, that’s right. Alladin’s magic lamp from Arabian nights. The lamp that comes with a bonus of a genie that can fulfill your wish. The lamp that I bought as a souvenir from my trip to Dubai. Now, peacefully resting on my desk, Shining all the time. Everyone who stops by my desk, Can’t control…

In those moments, when everything seems to have come to a pause, out of nowhere we find these words passed on to us, by our loved ones and our well-wishers. These are the words of hope which for many of us also changes our outlook towards life. From my last post, I invited my fellow-bloggers to…

It’s the end of the day. I am on my way home, after work. Holding my phone, wondering what should I write? Somedays when I am not prepared I’ve noticed that so much of thoughts and ideas run through my mind on my next blog post. But often I regret for not having a book…

Originally posted on Lucid Lavanya: So it’s summer time and I’ve visited my maternal grandmother’s house for vacations. This used to be a constant ritual in summers during childhood and one that I longed for since the moment I used to come back home. After all it meant meeting my cousins. And for someone who’s…

No, not yet. I’ve being waiting but haven’t been nominated for “Quote of the day challenge”. 🙂 Although, I do wanted to share this quote from a book that I’ve being reading, “Wonder” by R. J. Palacio. It’s kind of interesting why I chose to pick this book for my to-be-read list. I was in…

And one thing I can say for sure is over these years no one has ever been able to replace the charm and innocence these characters bring to us. Kids love them, I still love them. And I have stored all the books so that one day my kids can have an access to these…

That voice is not our heart or our soul, it’s that friend who is with us through our thick and thin.

A short story by O’Henry. This was also a part of our English curriculum. My memories as a student have always been vague as I was never interested in studies. Surprisingly, there are a couple of stories from the English textbooks that I can recall. I would rather say, I don’t just recall but also…

At 8.00 a.m. in the morning, we had to be ready for the assembly that started with prayers followed by announcements, news and prayer requests. I remember being dropped by our school bus half an hour early to the school time that allowed us to take copies from our friends to finish our homework before…

Thankful to my 140+ fellow bloggers who have shown their interest in my content by following my page. I’m not yet quite there where I wish to be, but I am sure these baby steps will eventually bring out the best in me. I am an active learner, thus I have something to always take…

For those who have already viewed my post “A conversation“, I have tried to come up with the French version of the same. Being a beginner in French, I am trying to put this more into practice so I don’t forget what I learnt. But I’ll be honest, I had to take help from Google…

Can be as simple as this one if we take a pause and enjoy those precious moments.

Mom: Net isn’t working? Whom do you think you are trying to fool. I can see you post daily on Facebook.. Commenting on the pages of political parties.. But, why are you following these pages.. Why don’t you keep yourself away from all this? I want you to focus on your studies.

Thus, it’s important that we keep ourselves in the “listen only mode” in order to observe the beauty of people who are a part of our lives and not overlook any cues that are unintentionally given to us expressing their love and care.

It has been over 3 months since I started spending my time here – reading blogs and writing some. It has been a learning phase for me so far understanding what content to choose, that should be a combination of mine and my readers’ interests. You won’t find a specific trend in my posts except…
