2020 has got a bad reputation. Rightly so. But my word of 2020 gave me the flexibility to own my circumstances and respond accordingly. I chose the word ‘CHOICE’ for 2020 to remind me that whatever I do or not do, I have a choice. I wanted to think about my choice. I wanted to […]

Fiction Monday – 26
Hello everyone! Welcome to the twenty-sixth edition of Fiction Monday. This is the last fiction Monday of 2020. I feel incredibly happy as I type this post.

Be There For Yourself #SoulfulSunday
2020 is in its twilight zone. Soon it will melt into the night and 2021 will be here. I have been holding back on writing down my year review post. I was in a holiday mood from last week. So I didn’t write or read. Yesterday I sat down for some time and wrote down […]

Don’t focus on the failures of yesterday, start today with positive thoughts and expectations.” – Catherine Pulsifer I think we can apply this thought even during midday or in the evening. Now is the time. When we […]
Liberating My Thoughts & Soul #SoulfulSunday 3
This blog used to see a lot of parenting moments, mostly nuggets of wisdom my elder one shared, at the beginning of its life. Then gradually it changed to gratitude lists and random musings that wandered into my mind. I used to worry about not having a particular niche which stopped me from sharing my […]
Fiction Monday – 23
Hello everyone! Welcome to the twenty-third edition of Fiction Monday. In my latest post, I have talked about the writer’s block I have been facing lately. It was a selective block in which I was at a loss of words when it came to poetry writing. Since I like to write poems more than anything […]
Writing Challenges #SoulfulSunday 2
Soulful Sunday is our way of ignoring the writer’s block and all other excuses and issues that stop us from writing. Yet, my mind is revolving around this nagging topic which has been taking over my creative spirits of late. I don’t know if it writer’s block or words just dried up in me, but […]
