Motivating myself with my loved ones


I hate being guided or given instructions... I love to rule over myself. But some point of time, I want someone to just listen what I have to say and what I feel. I know my people around me care for me and love me but when they start advising me I feel frustrated and get into the mode of depression. 


Initially, I did not know how to come out of it but now I have found a way out. When I feel I need to be motivated I plan for an outing where I get to laugh out loud, play and get to remove my frustration with ease. 


There are so many memorable days, love to share few #together moments


When entire family is met, there is so much of warmth, love and fun - I experienced the real fun recently when I met all my cousins on one of our cousins engagement. It was an unexpected plan to meet after the occasion. It turned out to be huge hit.  Including all the elders of the family, we had a great time. The time brought all beautiful moments #together which we use to spend during our childhood times.




Life is an ongoing process, sometimes we need to pause for a while to rejuvenate ourselves. I got to chat with my cousins who are equally educated and were also in the same boat as I was. We got to share our thoughts and experiences and not to miss out... a fun filled afternoon. 

There was one more an unplanned occasion where my family members planned a quick outing as we had to get back to our schedule in Mumbai


I got to do so many things in that short outing... The bus ride.. I always loved roadside dabba food. My Br0-in-law knew I love that kind of food. So, he took us to eat there while we were on the way to the riverside. That food was so delicious. It brought back the memories of me having with my dad near his office which was situated in a village.

This experience actually motivated me to have a positive approach  "where your own mindset matters". In little time we had, we achieved so much more... fun and #togetherness.



A part of Bird's life... it played an equal importance in my life


Lesson learnt- "#Together we can achieve the impossible thing"


Next to my house, there is a group of Sparrows which build their nest regularly (its a regular place for their little ones). Normally when I'm passing by, these crows wants to attack them, so I chase them away. Apparently that day, I was shocked to see these group of sparrows, the way they chased this crow which came to attack their little ones. I learnt a lesson there... Whether you are big or small, size doesn't matter - if you have a firm mind with determination anything can be achieved being #together.

My "Challenging" New Life


Actually when I read the question "Tell us about a time when you took a bold step, and brought about a big change in your own life". For a moment, I couldn't figure out what was happening in my life.

This question was never asked to me and now when I look back.. so many questions raises in my mind like Am I the one who used to be shy, scared, humble etc.

One move can actually change a person's life, the answer is true when it comes to me. There are so many hurdles in one person's life but to over come is the biggest challenge.
I would like to narrate my own story where it took lot of guts(which I realised while answering to the question) to reach where I am now.





I'm a South-Indian who loves almost all traditional occasions, love exploring small little things like making flower garlands, decorating the house entrance with rangoli and diyas etc. These were few interest which I would love to do apart from my daily activities.

One day, it happened to be like the marriage proposal had come for me. I'm a person who always wanted to get married to a person whom I know before in hand( that point of time, we were not allowed to do that and for my fate I did not have any "boyfriend" but had many friends). I think this was the turning point in my life which actually changed my life completely.

Apparently I got to chat with my best friend about this issue. Even for him, a little twist in his life, got to meet many but did not click anywhere. This was the life changing conversation which I realise now.

While chatting with him, he asked me I know you so well and why don't we get married to each other as we know each other so well. I was certainly not expected such a diplomatic question from him.
But when I thought about, I was like he is my best friend and getting married to a known person would be better than an unknown person. At that point of time, Marriage was the only word which was bothering me but never knew so many hurdles are attached to it.

A little info about my best friend -
My Best Friend - Many breakups, Non-veg eater(I'm a Pure veggie), love gadgets(I hate too many gadgets), loves fiction movies (I hate those... :(  ), last but not the least Christian ( Me.... Jain)

This Marriage was no less than a Roller-coaster  ride. Initially, to accept each others daily routine, accepting family members, respecting each others thoughts was bit tough and challenging but nothing comes in easy way out. Little sacrifices, lots of love, trust and faith made our living beautiful. Mumbai city changed the way of thinking and living. Now, I'm respected for who I am.
