It won't last

Feels like yesterday when i was in hostel . That was the best period of my life when we friends used to shout and rap the mess tables with  our plates  , dance like mads in hostel room, whisper loud 😄in the library and what not . But today it's been 22 years . 

Feels like yesterday when I got married But today it has been 17 years .

Feels like yesterday when I held my daughter for the first time in the hospital , but today she is a teenager and stands taller than me.

No moment or stage of life lasts forever;It moves on. 

I transformed from a girl to a woman to a mother and now slowly aging like that Aunty next door. 

Forty years of life have passed and i saw many near and dear ones  who passed away in these years , some old some young. 

Same way Fifty years will pass and same way Sixty Seventy ( is there any guarantee that I will reach seventy? ) 

Daily a day starts and it ends giving me  nothing special on my plate .....

So let's start making our days special, beautiful  and happier 

Spending more time laughing 

Spending more family time 

Making time for the things we love 

Singing Dancing Smiling and Loving each other 

Because 

as an icecream melts after few minutes ;

cooked food starts to stink after few hours; 

stagnant water develops fungus after few days; 

Same way ....our life .....it won't last

I am writing this post as part of #BlogchatterA2Z month long writing challenge

    Aging is a fact of life is it not? We just need to accept it. You made the right comparisons with ice cream, food, water etc.
    Every day is a new day. And every day is also the first day in the rest of our life.
    Make the best of it. Pause, and cherish every moment. Our plates will automatically become full! :-)

A letter to my Kitchen

 Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen    Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly .  Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene .  It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job   in  just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...

Why do I write ?

 I have been writing a blog for the last five years and many times people question me why do i write . Well ! I don't have an exact answer . But whenever someone has asked me this question ' Why do you write ?' i have answered in the form of some question only like 'Why do you go shopping ?' or 'Why do you love to  go  on vacation?'  Actually the basic answer is that it feels good . It makes me happy , contented and also a little proud of myself . The feeling when i boasted about being an author is incomparable . May be you don't read me but I keep writing for myself - to reflect on my life experiences and learn from them. Earlier i used to feel depressed when people didn't read me but now it's just between me and my blog . Writing  helps me connect to my creative side and helps increase my vocabulary also. Writing provides an escape when reality becomes too complex. I like to write because it allows me to focus on a subject  and helps me relieve...

How are you feeling today ? Energetic , Stagnant or bored ? 2. Right now , are you thinking about today , yesterday or tomorrow ?  Remember today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday . Yesterday is gone . That was past . Learn from your past but don't let the past disturb you in the present or hinder your growth in the future . 3. In the past few days did you talk something good about yourself ? Daily you talk a lot about others but do you talk about yourself too ?

Always speak  empowering words about yourself, "Whenever you think of beautiful ...
