The paper is scattered with words. There is no pattern. Or is there a pattern that I miss to understand? The blotched ink on the paper says that despite the effort sometimes things get messy. I hate seeing blotches like that on paper. It isn’t professional. It isn’t nice. But I’m lying. I just want […]

My Journey of Self Discovery #SoulfulSunday
What makes me a writer? I started writing when I was in the 6th grade. I wrote one 6 liner verse and 4-5 2 liners and showed it to my parents. I remember writing them, the hesitation and the desire to show them, the sort of disbelief on my parents’ face, the feeling of content […]
A Wonderful Outing and Some Reflections #SoulfulSunday
Last week we went on a trip to see the fall colors. The trip was fabulous. We Phoenicians are deprived of fall colors and winter wonderland experiences if not for our cooler cities on the north side. The trip to Flagstaff is laced with vistas of gorgeous mountains all around us. This being the first […]
Plans for the Week #SoulfulSunday
I like my days calm and clutter-free. Not filled with so many appointments. But the week that went by, was busier than the one I imagined what busy meant. The weekend came as a relief. However, it had its share of things to do. Akku’s birthday was yesterday. Thankfully, we didn’t plan for anything major. […]
Those Were The Best Days! #SoulfulSunday
Last night as I was taking my routine Facebook stroll I happened to overhear this conversation that took place in my feed. Someone in my friend list posted their school photo and others commented “those were the best days”, “if only we could relive those days”, etc. Often when I hear this statement the question […]
The Pool Guardian #SoulfulSunday
Inspiration. It’s a loaded word. This word has so much responsibility. I have been looking to find some inspiration with no luck over the past few weeks. The inspiration to write, that is. And then I find her standing in our community pool of all the places. Some ten days ago we two guys installing […]
What will one do! #SoulfulSunday
What will one do when one is filled with so many ideas but gets into a mind-paralysis the moment she thinks about executing those ideas? What will one do when the information around her finds her mind to be the perfect place of residence and she too thinks that it is nice that all this […]
Do You Have a De-stress List? #SoulfulSunday
I love lists. I love making lists. I love thinking about making lists. I love the fact that they are handy and helpful. One of the lists I keep with me all the time is a de-stress list. It’s there in all the bullet journals I’ve owned so far. You can call it a “self-care […]
A Weekly Reflection #SoulfulSunday
It’s time for another soulful post, but like most days I come here with no soulful thought in particular. These days my mind refuses to work with me. Then again, I’m not sure if it is my mind that refuses to work, or is it me who refuses to get along with the mind. I […]
Rain #SoulfulSunday
I love rain. I have been in love with rain forever. Even then, when we were harassed by the rain during the Kerala monsoon season. I don’t like getting drenched in the rain. However, I love the gentleness of the drizzle, the pitter-patter of the incessant rain showers, the downpour and its rage dancing in […]
