 So, Rejected? And... Feeling dejected? I  don't like these words but this rhyme fits well. Welcome to the world of non-acceptance! Rejections, no matter how insignificant, are usually painful. When I brought up this topic with my Instafam through individual discussions, there was one common thing for most: Rejection= Mind Chaos Hey wait, did you just remember one of your rejection moments? Please hold on, I gotta share some of my experiences first :) So here are some selected episodes from my kitty of rejections (all are real) I was once rejected at a matrimonial meet because I had not applied makeup. The incident dates back to my pre-blogging days. It was a formal family meeting with a fair-skinned Sindhi lawyer from Mumbai. And while his aunt enjoyed intellectual discussions with me, the guy and his mom were super disappointed with my simple salwar suit and 'no make-up' face. A short conversation with the Gucci guy reminded me of the character Suhaas from the movie 3 idi

Why do we forget? - the times when the Universe showed up in different ways...giving us the phenomenon we needed the most at that time? Tuesday, 6.42 am. My feet work over the gym cycle as I write this blog. Although I prefer keeping the phone away while doing cardio, sometimes, getting engrossed in putting down my thoughts, helps me go through the monotony of the static cycle for a longer time. As I woke up today, the soft golden sky caught my attention. It wasn't too splendid....yet magical. Well, is it necessary for the sky to be its aesthetic best each day? We are all, at this point of time, going through the less-than-expected beauty of life, just like the morning sky. And we're all dreaming about how things could be better... We are waiting for some miracle to happen... somewhere in our lives...and how we hope it would happen like....NOW? It didn't? Maybe it will...or maybe the Universe just wants us to meet a more powerful version that lives within us. And when thing

 Time for another write-up! I just recently put a poll on Instagram for blog topic preferences from my social media family. Handling Rejection and Avoiding Negative people were the two options- getting votes quite close to each other. But well, the latter won with a few extra patrons. So this post is going to be about Avoiding Negative People and of course, the next one on Handling Rejections. The Ones On The Darker Side We're all somewhere struggling between the poles of Positivity and Negativity. And while it's rare to find someone as pure as distilled water, most people can be categorised based on the frequency and amount of negative vibes that they exude...and above all...how far they affect you. The insulting tribe....the backstabbers...the credit snatchers...the obstructing squad...the liars...the manipulators...the cynics...oh yes these species exist... and they are evolving, they will...always. Unfortunately, there's never a "The End" like shown in classic

 Hello, Sunshine! I missed you :) Bought this sunflower skirt-top coordinate a few weeks ago from an e-commerce site..not really for a special day. I ordered it amidst a dark phase of my life, with the hope of brighter days ahead. And while I post these pictures, the feeling is beyond elation. I made it. The dark tunnel that initiated during the second corona wave is finally over. It all commenced on 5th April, when my family was tested positive for Covid-19. And in half a week, my parents were transferred to different hospitals. Social alienation, lack of domestic help, unavailability of Remdesivir and Tocilizumab- the scary night seemed to have no end the entire month. Keep Going... Amidst the uncertainty of life, two siblings made it a point to do every bit to revive our parents. Whether it was running around to deliver supplies to my Mom's hospital or walk into the Covid ICU every single day to revive our Dad, my brother and I covered every possible path. From medicines to pray

“It’s always the right time to start being yourself…for in the chaotic journey of life, there is nothing more Precious than your real Essence” These are the days of podcasts and audio-visual content. But I find it liberating to write/ type down my thoughts. Hence this blog will always be special to me…after all, it was a Birthday Gift to myself in 2016! Talking about gifts, the idea of self-gifting always clicks to me. I see it as an essential routine of self-love and self-care, leading me to perceive myself as a special person (without being a narcissist). Losing Oneself in the Journey We all play different roles at each stage of life. Starting off with being a good kid, an ideal student, the perfect partner, the right employee or a successful entrepreneur, the best parent….too many expectations! Most of these roles involve other people and groups. And while these different set-ups can nurture absolutely well, being a part of groups can be taxing on one’s real self. The other

  Once in a while, it's good to break free from routines and escape.. Hello Beautiful Souls! It's been a hopeful start with the vaccine rolling in. 2020 was one long year! The lockdown was immense...and when I say immense....it pertains to the crises and the lessons as much as the opportunities that came along. For me, it had been a year of learning, adjusting and leading towards the necessity of survival. The pandemic reminded me of Darwin's theory of evolution, where Survival of the Fittest has always been a universal process. Breaking into my own records, I have been accelerating my chase of excellence. To me, growth reflects as work-skill betterment and thought processes with higher productivity. Over and above that, spiritual ascension also has been acing on my priority list. It's been four years in my journey of Reiki self healing, and the last few months got me to higher energies, shedding off pandemic fears and seeing things through the lens of positivity and fa
