Lonely day

My parents were visiting us from India.Things were awesome when they arrived and then the COVID-19 situation happened:/ Their flight got cancelled twice and almost at the end of 6 month period they managed to go back by evacuation flight.

Though, it was known to everyone that they had to leave but the thought of being alone after they’ll leave was daunting. This thought haunted me yesterday after they left and in the morning too .

This made me realise how nothing in life is permanent.Things come to an end because new things and memories need to be created!

So to a much happier time ahead here’s a toast to my lovelies:*

Too much on the plate

Sometimes when you are not doing anything you feel,sad or upset about nothing happening in life.But when things start ,it can become overwhelming!

So,the crux is if things aren’t happening as you want let it be,just enjoy the phase you are in at this time,because what you have at this point will not be after a point .Things will happen the way you want but at a time it has to happen.

Life will happen to you sooner or later but it will!! For every individual there is a different timeline;)

Do you really love this place?

As we celebrate the first festival of this year 2020 Lohri (for those who are unaware it is the harvest festival most popular in North India and it is followed by Makar Sakranti-when the Tropic of Cancer shifts to Tropic of Capricorn ) leading to longer days and marking an end to winter months especially in the Southern Subcontinental.MAKAR-Capricorn in Hindi). It forced me to think and be nostalgic about how this festival was celebrated back home!

I thought probably it was only me,who was feeling this way,but when I saw few stories on YouTube of those YouTubers who are not in their home country,saying that they miss the celebration back home,I was relieved as there are others too who feel the same.

Coming to the topic,loving a place is based on lot of factors and the main factor is a place that is surrounded by your loved ones and family members.So,definitely there is no second thought in this that no matter what’s the condition of air,road,politics back home..home is home💖 and it has all my heart:*

But, coming so far away from your comfort zone,away from family and loved ones,is not always an easy choice..this is life and that’s how it is..it’s impossible to sit at home and be nourished and protected by your family throughout your life,if you want to move ahead and really get a good opportunity then though at the end it’s your choice but at some point we have to make a choice either opportunity or comfort at home!

So,wrapping up this blog the only thing I can say is,this is a good place,I like it!But it’ll take time for this place to be equal to the position my home country has in my heart 💓 Which is I believe quite understandable.

When your soul gets healed😊 :Travel Blog

Decided to take a short trip down South and trust me it healed my inner self.It made me realise what are we running after..the daily noise,artificial lights,food,pollution..

Among all this there is no time to think what our body actually wants..today I felt I gave that to my body and soul…that silence and calmness is what my body wanted!

Today I gave my self the best self gift:)

Stop this

There are many instances in life ,where you know you’ll have to wait for something to happen ,but still get influenced by others who spread negativity around petty things.

So,just stop being influenced by others and be positive.There are things in life where,we have no other option apart from waiting for that time/thing to happen.Therefore until that particular time starts or happens focus on good things in your life right now,enjoy this moment!until that comes along and most importantly forget the negativity around..

The winter sun

Though since last few years Capital doesn’t enjoy the warmth of winter sun,like it used to earlier,but still there is something in the winter sun!

This year initially there was smog but as it rained and git windy due to god’s grace towards the city,weekend has been blessed with a warm wintery sun..apart from the most important part that it gives warmth to us on cold days and our clothes dry faster when the sun is bright ,I associate this to many memories since childhood.

Winter is one of my best season,it has been since I was a child ,the most awaited winter break,happiness of a new year ,with new session,books,teachers..in all this happiness and excitement ‘sun’ played an important role,it was a symbol of happiness and warmth,whenever it used to be cloudy ,I used to feel gloomy.

Through all the years,winters are the most sought after just because of the sun !! This sun is hated during summers and we pray for some respite from it,but during this season we can’t think of surviving without it’s warmth!

This is nature and I truly believe that the way we have been blessed with this natural heater for winters,it should be retained like this throughout..without any smog covering it and making us gloomy..
