Giggles...

Umm ok, this may not seem very important. But i'm kind of missing mom. Ok to fill in the gap, my parents for the first time in many many years have left us( me& my sis) alone and are off for a lil holiday! Phew...
So back to the point, i am missing mum (dad too for that matter). Today while rummaging through all the rubbish that i have collecetd over the years, i found this, shiny card i had gifted my mum (eons ago).
I was in school and hardly ever got pocket money then. So this was the frst time i actually bought something for my mum on her birthday. The funny thing is, like i said i had no money i took some from her in the morning. Feeling very proud of the fact that i had some 150 bucks with me, manu& me went to get her something.
Green was my favorite colour then. And also when your in school, you like shiny stuff, which i did and my sister approved. So what did we buy? Hmmmm, well we bought this obnoxious shiny green colour nail paint and another shimmering pale blue like nail paint. Lastly, we got her a shiny card, lolz.
OK my dad was horrified. He was like yuck! ( now my dad is adorable, just that he is very practical) But i totally love what mom did. She actually wore them. She immediately wore that horrid green thing on her nails. And boy! she was beaming!!!
She was very happy. Ma even wore it to office next day, dad protested a bit though.
Well, you cant imagaine how embarassed i am now of that thing! But ma is like, it would break our hearts if she dint wear!
Isnt she amazing??? She is lolz.
Love ya!!!

    moms are truly amazing in that way.

    i remember my mom's favorite food at the time was potato chips so i made her potato chip earrings. she still has them.

    absence makes the heart go fonder.

    I saved up and bought a Holly Hobbie kerosene lamp for my mom for Mother's Day when I was a girl. I thought it was the most delicate, precious thing. And my mom still has it, even though her tastes are more jungle/primitive/abstract sort of stuff.

#Sorry not sorry

I feel sorry for ‘Sorry’ – such an abused term. When you come to think of it, it is just a word, right? It holds significance in some instance and at times, it is a mere excuse. But we humans absolutely love it as an excuse, don’t we? I use this term a lot; I mean a lot! I think of myself as a kind being, and hence, if I happen to push or ignore (deliberate), I say ‘sorry’. I say sorry for things that may not need a ‘sorry’. I say ‘sorry’ to people I am not really feeling sorry for (don’t read this the wrong way). In short, I say ‘sorry’ a lot like I have already admitted. It is my ticket to moving on, a ticket to redeem myself for mistakes and sometimes, tinged with slight sadness (maybe).


But is ‘Sorry’ the right word? Mean, is it even appropriate? Like they say, first you commit the murder and then say sorry. What is the point of it? I would say nothing. Sorry – the term originated from the West Germanic term Sore that evolved to Sarig, meaning pained or distressed. It is also known…

Mind vs the heart

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Picture courtesy: Google. Only for representation purpose.
Standing on the highway, Roads leading both ways to somewhere, I stand still and wonder, Where do I belong?
The soothing lullabies of the green mist fairies call.  With promises to wrap me in the cool calm fog, Holding me in wet, gentle caresses, lulling the storm within. 
The call of the shrill, salt-laden sea sirens,  from the sun-baked rocks, Pull me back To join them as they make me one, in the fathomless abyss of wonders unseen. 
I lament my fragile being,  Born with one heart, not two, Torn between the ebb and flow of waves, And earthy scents in muddy dew. 
Both offer me refuge,  Cloaking me whole in their embrace, Dust to dust, flesh to flesh and soul to soul. 
In this battle between the mind and the heart, The heart but loses steam,  Leaving me stranded on a path to nowhere, never to be seen. 
My mind has been wrought with depression and all things crappy. This is a result of binge-watching a…

I Wonder What Ants do on Rainy Days…

Source: Google Images
On days when the sun has abandoned us, hiding behind the grey, moody clouds. Do they sit inside their hills and wonder out loud? Do they stare outside at the rain, measuring the raindrops, letting thoughts splotch all over? Does the earthy petrichor take them down the memory lane? Or are they content with what nature has to offer? It is a part of their lives, isn’t it? They dredge up foods daily, diligently build their hills, even if it is to serve their queen, only to enjoy it on days like this, no? Maybe they do take stock of things, of their bearings. They ought to sleep it off, take a day to rest or do they lament on the lost time?
Unlike me.
When I gaze out, a gazillion thoughts fly by; some worthy of the pen, some so disturbing that I often question my sanity. I like the grey skies though. They seem like textured canvases waiting for me to scribble something. The lazy raindrops wetting the streets below and casting a temporary stain on window ledges bring a…
