I Love...


1. The smell of the earth..when it rains…
2. The smell of old books….
3. The smell of freshly washed clothes from the machine…
4. The pleasant evenings, before the arrival of Spring…
5. A message or a call from an old friend, when I am least expecting it, just to say that they “thought” about me,…
6. Love the look on my partner’s face, when he is amused by something I have done or said but doesn’t want to show it.
7. When I whisper “I love You” in my son’s ears while he is sleeping, and he replies, “I know”
8.When my cousin and I share the nostalgic moments from our growing up years…
9. When a fellow Mother looks up and gives a ‘been there experienced that’ smile in a mall, when my brat is showing off his tantrum throwing skills…
10. Sitting in a Coffee Shop and looking at the people walking in with varied moods and expressions…
11. Getting transported to a different world while listening to some song…
12. Smiling at old photographs…
13. Having my coffee in the quiet hilly surroundings, while on a holiday…
14. Solitary walks…
15. The feeling of content, when I get to know that I was the reason for someone’s smile…
16. Leisure baths…
17. When an old friend says, “Please, I know you too well”…
18. When I am able to laugh at myself…
19. Getting surprise gifts…
20. The smell in the air, in the month of November, before the onset of chilly winters in Delhi…
21. My growing up years in KB…
22.  The smell of freshly brewed coffee…
23. When I am told I can’t, and the shocked look on the person’s face when I prove them wrong…
24. The very often used movies and popcorn combo…
25. Putting my feet up, digging into my comfort food of Bread and soupy veggies, and watching a fav movie on dvd, alone…
Ahh!! Many more to list… this is enough as of now… :)

Take it easy policy...

A friend walked in, to have coffee, her house also is empty by 8 and so is mine. So sometimes, we catch up for our lil tete-a-tete over coffee. Talking about coffee, I have turned the American way, I now prefer black coffee to white. Well, the first cuppa is with milk. Her Mum is an amazing baker, she had sent homemade peanut butter cookies. So, my neighbour was generous enough to get some for me. I made the famous South Indian filter coffee, and we plonked ourselves on the couch. She seemed a lil disturbed, so after a lot of prodding, she finally asked me if I thought she was obsessive about being perfect. So I instantly said Yes! And she was shocked, she said how could I have known that about her, as I have known her only for few months. So I laughingly pointed out at certain incidents and told her that I have a penchant for observing people and their mannerisms, and I can't help it. We laughed, then she asked, but what's wrong in doing things perfectly? I told her nothing, ...

Blah blahs....

For the last few days, I open my blog, view it, read my friends posts and then sign out... There are so many thoughts crossing my mind, everyday, but am unable to pin it down. For example, this morning, in the Delhi metro, nobody offered their seat to an old woman, she even requested one young girl to get up, as she wasn't feeling too well, but the dame refused. Two minutes later, the old woman had a dizzy spell and fell, I couldn't help asking that dame, how would she have felt if her mother went through a similar situation? She obviously didn't have an answer, but that set me into a thinking mode, not to forget that I was totally upset with such a start to the day. But, come to think of it, what is happening to our society? What happened to values? Respect..Kindness...Compassion... Have people forgotten these words? What are we passing on to our children? Everyday, I get bogged down by such thoughts, because, even if I stick to my guns, and pass on the so called ...

Puppy Love!

All along I have been anti dogs, not a 'hater' particularly, but somehow couldn't imagine myself living with a pet, who couldn't be caged, or swim in a tank. As a child, I probably did express my desire to have a pup to my Mum, who told me that I would have to leave school, stop playing or going out for vacations, as she wasn't prepared to take care. I thought then, 'how mean?!'. Ofcourse, when I was in my teens, I finally realized that yeah probably my Mum was right, what she meant was that it was too much of a hassle and a big responsibility. And I was happy that we didn't have one, since I was very happy with the way my teenage was going on. Laughing, bunking, playing pranks, secret crushes, gossips...You know how all this is a 'BIG DEAL' for a teenage girl!! And in the middle of all this I became an anti dog person. Well, life happened later, which is another story, not to be talked about on this post.  I got married. Had a baby. In that...
