After 2 Years....:)

I am almost on the right track. I drove my husband's car after two years. I could not believe but I managed to drive his car. But still long way to go. The only reason, I want to drive is to go to Hyderabad, and meet my daughter. In case, my family is occupied, I should know how to manage to drive to Hyderabad. Again my daughter and my children at Sphoorti drives me to grow as a better person.

I am very happy and contented with myself. I have to get up early for my yoga class. So, I should sleep now. But a message for my readers. Our children play a very vital role in making us better parents. 

Cheers:)

Lastest Write-up in FG - A poem for Mother's Day

Dear Readers -

12th May is International Mother's Day, and a reason to acknowledge God's best creation - Mother. I wrote a poem for the Mother's Day, and is published in the latest edition of FG. To read my poem, please click the below link:

Respect every woman, as in every woman, there is a mother!

I Wrote To Him....-:)

I always tell my daughter to thank people for being good. Do not owe it. But in the race of life and work or maybe out of confusion or bad times, I just forgot it.

I put my framed sketch on my room wall, and realised that I never thanked the guy. I wrote to him after so many months. I was not expecting a response but was shocked with his prompt response. I just wanted to convey few words to acknowledge his art:). I just wrote a line - 'I owe you a coffee or a lunch for the sketch'. I do not know why I did not thank him at that time. I forgot to preach what I teach:)

His words were so much full of respect, and I was touched by one line " you are a very beautiful and strong person. The sketch is to remind you of your strength as I read your blogs." As a woman, all I demand was respect. A pinch of salt in food can make it tasty. Similarly, for any woman, just few words of respect can motivate them. I was reading a book about sex workers. I realised - they also demand just 'respect'.

I realised one thing about missing on good moments. The best part to move on in life is when you start catching up with the lost time and people you ignored so far. I have started catching up with the lost time, and people I just forgot to connect. I just want to move on and on and on:). I share a fact - to move on, it is mandate to involve yourself into activities you never thought about. I just made a list of my plans for next few weeks. Yeah, I am feeling quite good as I lost 4 kgs in last 2 weeks after my treatment. I am feeling confident. Thanks to everyone who read me so far. I am just writing the last section of my kindle book and maybe you see it live soon................!

Cheers...:)

Btw, I forgot to share the stats for the month of April, 2013. We had almost 985 hits.  I am very happy with the numbers.

Few Lines - Meri eyes main hain dreams, mere dil ko lag gaye wings!

Badtameez Day - Chocolate Day -:)

I am almost done with my chocolates and I am thankful to Ranbir Kapoor's song - Badtameez Dil. It really kept my energies high. I liked the song though not great lyrics but a funny number. Ranbir Kapoor looks dapper and handsome like always. I just admire him in all his roles. He is a great actor and so good looking:)

 Chocolate day for a chocolate boy - Ranbir Kapoor:)

I made all the chocolates while listening to this perfect number of Ranbir Kapoor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXfW3LyixIM

Have a Badtameez Day:)...........

Cheers!

R.I.P Sarabjit - Defeat of Humanity OR Victory of Enemity!

I thought not to blog for the day as I am overwhelmed with work. I did not get time for my lunch also. But I am writing this for Sarabjit who died in Pakistan among his own hidden tears, broken emotions and memories of his past days of India. I can empathise with Sarabjit as it is a misery when your people are near but too far (you cannot talk to them) due to social obligations, promises or commitments. In Sarabjit's case, it was even tougher. There would have been moments where he would have missed his family - care of his mother, love of his wife and responsibility of his daughters. There would have been moments where he would have missed pouring his heart out to his own people. There is a quote by Kahlil Gibran - "We shall never understand one another until we reduce the language to seven words." I think to understand one another we just need to know four letters of 'LOVE' and not 'HATE'.

It was so tragic as when his family could reach him, he was in a state of coma. It was hurtful that he could not meet his own people before leaving them forever. He was not given a chance to express, how he felt in these 23 years? Somewhere, his tragic story had touched my heart. I will pray for his family but an open question for all of us. 

Is it a sad news for India or a significant news in Pakistan? Is it a defeat or a victory?

In simple words, it is defeat of humanity and victory of enemity. 

I do not want to write what happened and how it happened. For my inner feeling and for the first time on my blog, I ask 'WHY' it happened?

R.I.P Sarabjit!

I Am So Happy ....:))))

I do not know but I am just too happy. My bird helped me to get over so many memories.Finally, I  have moved on happily. Thanks Luna!...There is a reason for everything that happens!

Today, everything seems just perfect. It was a girl's day out, and I got an order to make 200 chocolates. I could pay for my daughter's school fees and uniform from my first salary as my reader's would have read in yesterday's post (http://doyouthinkyouareliving.blogspot.in/2013/05/i-am-proud-mother.html). 

I did some silly shopping. I wore my best black anarkali with antique jewellery, and got loads of compliments. I am almost ready to get my driving license, and thinking to buy my own car!

WOW!

It is like as if I am in love with myself. I kept looking at myself in the mirror trying all the dresses in my wardrobe. I just started the biggest canvas with a new painting that I intend to finish before Mother's Day. My kindle project is almost complete, my first self-published book to be released and I got the sketch (made by a fan of mine) finally framed. I am breathless now. 

I am really happy about everything around me, I just missed my workouts and went for a long walk. My daughter has given me a reason to work more and earn better. She has made me do so many things, I hesitated to do. Few lines for this beautiful time in my life - a song from Aashiqui 2 for my bonding with her.

Chahun Main Ya Naa.....lol!....I am so damn happy!

LOL!

I Am A Proud Mother!

Yes, it is the first day of Mother's Month on my blog. I am very happy as I got my salary after 5 years. But I am happy as I just paid for my daughter's uniform. I am proud of this moment. It makes me feel so complete and good. I see the benefit of my writing after paying for her school fee. 

This post is to acknowledge all the adopted and sponsored mothers with a thought - 'In every women, there is a mother'. You do not have to give birth to a child to be addressed as a mother. If you can be compassionate and responsible for any child, there is a mother in you. I sold out my all gold ornaments in 2009 gifted by my parents, as I wanted to take the responsibility of my daughter. At that time, the feeling to be a successful mother was more significant to me than my jewellery. It was my decision and I wanted to take it forward. But yes, my husband and my parents were my strength pillars. We all could do it for my daughter. 

Remember, mother is beyond the word 'biological mother'. If you believe in yourself as a mother, you are on the right road of life. If you respect your decision, do not worry about the criticisms or tags. Somewhere, we all are tagged as 'good' or 'bad' at different stages of life. You need to decide what you want from your life. You just get one life ONLY!

If you want to help my daughter's NGO by funding for their school uniforms, here is the link for my readers - www.sphoorti.org

Cheers to all the adopted and sponsored mothers for their will power and strength to face the world and stand as proud mothers!
