Change...A necessary Evil

Too many things that currently occupy my mind. I would still regard them as pleasant, I am the one who believes everything happens for a reason and the reason is always good! Being married at 23 (22 in my Husband's case), A mother at 26, I dont think I have dreaded the Major changes of life. I infact embrace them with love and affection and cherish every small thing thrown at me. Boredom is a part and parcel of every life, no matter what you do how you do, you cannot escape it. That is when you start craving for the adventure, its like that Bunty Babli film climax, you cannot be happy when everything is perfect and in its place, you need Chaos, need the uncertainties and the surprises life throws at you. When you have the typical routine life and you can have a day with closed eyes with no changes in the events, you would jump at a given opportunity. The thrill of living life on a edge has its own charms. The Major 30 syndrome hasn't hit me yet (I am hoping it doesn'...

Why have Babies?

Life is so busy watching my daughter grow, never realized it almost an year ! As you are about to hit 30 in couple of years, your discussion with friends over drinks is always around Marriages, Spouse and Kids. I am no different, just that I am the only one among the closely knit friends group to have a baby early in life (Early definition is before 30 according to them) I just wait for people to ask me, why have a Baby before 30? I am always ready with a whole explanation! Before you guys assume I am promoting having kids before 30, hold your thoughts!! I am only penning my version of how having a baby changes a couple's life. Marrying early has its disadvantages, as a couple you still discovering each other, Actions are quicker than thinking. Young, energetic, fun and yes of course the crazy love in the air syndrome. However, having a baby ensures you see the other side of life! You step into your parents'shoes and start understanding them better. As the angel entere...

Just the few hrs before motherhood..

Its been ages I sat down to write for the blog. Nevertheless its always better to be late than never. The past 6 months has been crazy. A full time Mom to a full fledged Marketing person for a liquor brand just happened in a wink of an eye. No woman will ever say giving birth to be an easy job, I wouldn't either. I always thought I should just pen down those dreadful time when I was at the door where my life was about to collapse, I never knew that the other end a door opened for a Life of happiness and laughter. February 1st, where I finally decided to let go of the cozy nest which I shared with my husband and instead get into the warm hug of my mother at her place. The idea was just to be on bed rest while I still had a month to relax before I took up the responsibility of being a Mother. God had different plans when I entered the scanning room and Voila..my baby made me realize she is in a hurry to enter this world! It was time I pushed the panic button, called every known ...

Mom at Home.. A Thankless Job

I always wondered and envied my Mom being a housewife. Everytime I returned from school, she would be there at home, running around the house with very silly To-Do list ranging from folding clothes to dispersing the vessels for wash. There were weekends where all of us preferred sitting on a couch with Yummy snacks to be prepared by Mom and fighting with siblings for remote. Its during these days, she found time to complaint to us, she would insist we go out, order food and we greatly disappointed her saying its Sunday, a day to kick our shoes and relax with her Yummy food. I wondered what made her sad? She had the entire day for herself, after we have left, she had her time to pamper herself, have a quick nap, gossip with neighbours. Instead she cribbed about being a Home-maker which I never understood. Today I have donned the Role. Women get offended when you call them Housewife, they prefer to be called a Home Maker. It doesn’t matter to me. What matters is, I understand my M...

Life.. Always has a new beginning!

It looks like I took a break from everything along with career few months back and then when people started asking about your blog you realize you have missed writing and penning down your thoughts. Its true when someone said, Maturity doesnt come with age, in that case I should have matured long back! These 7 months of pregnancy I have started seeing life ina different perspective, lets say boredom and being jobless have contributed to the process big time. I have my friends who are married now, few discussing relationships, few throwing surprises with their relationships. The bottom line still remains how selfish each one of us are. Every stage we have view to put across which says 'I FEEL'.  Infact I have come across people who change opinions faster than chameleon!! Currently I can think of different people about whom I randomly ponder my thoughts over their actions and try justifying their actions rather than being judgemental. I can recollect when one of my bestie ...

Men. . You cant live With or Without!

I have always been partial on writing my thoughts and my views on self and women, Men are an important concept too in Life. I wont go on the version of Feminist and claim how women are better than Men, I feel its beyond that. Every men who walks into our life is always characterized in a relationship but the one who passes through each phase of being a Friend, Mentor, Adviser, Lover, Husband is the one who surpasses all, especially if he doesn't let go off his previous roles in life. Thanks to the so called Modernization you get to make Male friends easily, No strings attached but just available at each other's convenience. Irrespective of how we claim to be independent, you will always find peace while you are next to the man you love, the rest of the world blends into the background. Men do not become important only when they are Lovers or Husbands, they gain the most prominent position as a Friend, but in the rush of responsibilities...

Work - O - Holic

Its 2 a.m, and here I am blogging after ages Currently at Work Place working with team. . Never ever thought I would be sacrificing my Beauty Sleep just to meet the deadlines. Work for me had always been 10-6 job for the last 3 years. Over the few months, I realized it can be more than that, it is more than just your salary being credited to your account on 1st of every month. I always referred to people as Workaholic when they never answered calls during office hours or did answer calls at work post 7 pm. Yes, they always say, Love your Job, not the company, You never know when the company might stop loving you. Have never been able to follow the same, I fall in love with the company and the people in the company. For a change I have realized what Loving your job means. Its the feeling when you do not crib when 1) You have to reply to mails from 6 am to Mid Night 2) You can never take Ad Hoc leave 3) You never realize when the clock strikes 8 pm everyday...
