Its October!  It’s my Birth month!! I have made a few realisations after living approximately 14000 days on this beautiful planet. These realisations result from my addiction to constant and never-ending efforts on self-improvement and constantly raising the bar to attain the best version of myself. While many things in my life have changed in a year, there is some constant. Even before I started to pen down ( aka type down ) these understandings, I was sure they were not some out-of-world thoughts. Many people must have felt the same and lived through this awareness in their life journey, but these are unique to mine and, hence, are essential. Nevertheless, my three fundamental and near-to-heart realisations have found a deeper meaning in my life. 1. Time is valuable, but valued time is precious .

I pleaded with her to provide me with anything to do.  This does not imply that I do not have a life or have lesser things to do. I am a full-time mother, a full-time homemaker, a full-time HR profess...

Memories- Birthday with supreme God Gifts (my kids) !! Disclaimer- This is an emotional note of my learning till date and my way of paying heartfelt gratitude to all beings in my life. It is my birthday morning. And I have just finished re-re-read of this amazing book “The pursuit of Happyness” by Cris Gardner. Every birthday this-great-modest-book read has turned out to be a personal tradition. It helps me re-evaluate and re-affirm my life with the thought - I CAN DO ANYTHING! Today while sitting in far-fledge-never-thought-type-place at Assam and in utterly quiet time, I just can't stop thinking of the passage from this book- “The future was uncertain, absolutely, and there were many hurdles, twists, and turns to come, but as long as I kept moving forward, one foot in front of the other, the voices of fear and shame, the messages from those who wanted me to believe that I wasn't good enough, would be stilled.” From being an obedient daughter, loyal wife, sincere employee, ...
