Cooking & Me

Being a pampered child, I never had any association with cooking till I was 20. I wasn't interested in eating as well. My life turned upside down when I stayed in a PG in Bangalore for my internship. Those 5 brutal months were the longest time when I had to starve mostly. Bangalore was just…

Canadian Life

It's almost been 6 months since I landed in Canada and life has changed for good or best? I am still trying to figure that out or maybe I am blindly believing that life would be better. This will help me survive and also take care of the kids. Things are very different here when…

Stress Vs Comfort

I am not a person who is not very good with listening to advice from others; which does not mean I am a Know-it-all. I hear them but I just don't always apply them in real life. I am not exaggerating when I say that people who are extroverted by nature are pretty confident people.…

Cybercrime is no joke

Do you believe in bad luck or fortune? Do you think everything in life has it's reasons or proper explanation of its occurence? Why do we blame people or God for every bad thing that happens to us? Miserable times for each person can be very different. Its my nature to be clumsy in many…

First encounter

This shouldn't have happened. I am getting so anxious. Maybe I should call him up. Maybe I should have slapped him. I couldn't have known his intentions. Am I so naive or is it just that I am confused about my feelings towards him!? I need a break from all of this. He cannot affect…

Forbidden discussions

Society- a group of people living as a community or an organised group of people for a common purpose. Society is what shapes a person. It helps us grow. Society is important for human sustenance. It’s a perfect system to make sure that every citizen is protected and has a better life.But when you dig…

Awkward Meets

Sometimes it becomes awkward to meet someone for the first time when you don't get along and have difference in opinions. Encounters with uncles and aunties makes my mind work faster than ever. That's the time when my mind finds more replies than I could ever find for any math problem. The little smirks, unwanted…

Us

What's us? "You" and "me" seldom turns into "us". "You & me" kindof relationship is the first phase where the couple have just met or have been acquainted for a while but are still uncomfortable barfing in front of each other. "Us" is when you fight with each other and have no shame or ego…

Social Pressure

We have our lives wrapped around the city life, our needs, our family issues and financial pressures. We are all forced in a rat race and the issue here is we never see the end of it. If we do, then it scares us. Every person born in this world has a duty to fulfill…

Recipe 2: Lasagna

Italian recipes all seem to be so intimidating with their fancy ingredients and exquisite names. So it took me years to try one of them. I was particularly curious about Lasagna because I had heard so much about it. I first tried my beef lasagna in pizza hut dubai. It was so yum i started…

Recipe 1: Paneer Butter masala

This is my first recipe out of 150 recipe challenge that I made myself few days back. This is a proof that I do at least think of achieving my set-goal. I need to finish 150 recipes in 365 days. One down, 149 more to go. Let me not bluff about liking paneer butter masala…

If inconsistency was a person

Can it be true that I was born inconsistent? Hmmm ... Or maybe I have become inconsistent over the years !! All the autobiographies and non fictions tell us our entire life that consistency is the key. Be disciplined. Set rules for yourself. That's the only way one can achieve success. But what if that…

Books & Me

People often ask me why I like to spend my time reading books. Reading books gives a sense of comfort, a sense of belonging, a place where I can be myself, territory where my insecurity is not allowed in. Involving yourself into someone else's life, getting to know a new character, living his life, making…

Loneliness

What is being alone? Staying in a cottage in the middle of nowhere? Staying alone in your apartment in your mid 40s? You can be attending the biggest party of the millennium and still feel lonely. You can be in the middle of a very busy conversation and still feel lonely . Loneliness is not…

Moments

We all experience beautiful moments in our lives but do we remember them for long? Precious moments need not be always winning or gaining something. It could be as simple as sitting on your favourite chair in your lawn and admiring precious little somethings. In the rat race that we all are forced into, we…

Lilibeth’s Diaries

(Continued) 13/10/2015 Today has been heart-shattering. My entire life has been a lie. My marriage has been a lie. A facade to show off in front of society. The daily late-night work schedules, lasting phone calls, endless frustration, thwarting intimacy, weekend outings with his so-called pals who have never visited us- I got answers for…

Gender discrimination (India)

Raised in an Indian middle-class household requires a woman to be tough, able-bodied, knowledgeable, beautiful, fair-skinned, intelligent, with innate ability to cook(not sure how), ability to nourish kids as well other family members, homely and modest. A female is put under a lot of scrutinizes based on her manoeuvre, appearance, skin complexion, way of talking,…

According to Merriam- Webster dictionary, imagination is defined as the act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses or never before wholly perceived in reality; a creative ability; a creation of mind.

Stories connects us

Introverts, extroverts, or ambiverts, be a person of any character, it's always the stories that connect one person to another. My hypothesis about social connection is that everyone carries their own kind of stories with them and these stories after their demise, may be carried on by their loved ones or people they touch(not literally…
