BEING F.R.I.E.N.D.S!!!!

I was half in my sleep when I looked at my phone just to check the time, and instead, I found a long list of messages which took me by a sweet surprise, because I realized, that it was the friendships day morning! I remember the same day roughly three years back when I was not such a great advocator of the necessity for such days to exist…But this morning I surely realized the necessity, because looking at the gesture by so many people in my contact list I almost forgot the other million things in my mind which I had slept with, and which had been bothering me for a few days now…
Being friends I guess is the only relation we truly choose ourselves, and where we can be truly ourselves as well! Friends are no obligations and not bound by threads of responsibility either. Friends are those all time buffers in our lives which keep us strong enough to face all the big and small rough patches we go through, and keep us happy enough in our good times when they show up on all the occasions to celebrate! Cheers to such a selfless and lovely bond which makes us forget the worries at work, problems at home and fights with our spouses!


If they are angry then apologize and if they are out of touch then call them yourself, but do keep your friends well and don’t let them go because this one relationship is surely priceless! Here is wishing anyone who is reading this a very happy friendships day! And to my amazing friends…Big thanks for existing!

Veggies/Non-veggies! We choose or we follow!

Bored with my daily routine, and it being a Sunday I planned to go out to shop a little last week! On my way I stopped the auto fella to have a look at the plant nursery to see if I can get something to put in my terrace area. I was over whelmed by the way people were engrossed looking after plants there, someone was spraying water over the leaves while someone was mixing the manure with some insecticides, looking around I was about to step on a tiny sapling when one vendor interrupted me and said “Madam watch out, it will die” “Oops Sorry” I said and stepped aside. I was tempted to take some saplings for my home I sat there for some half an hour where I asked them about the different saplings they had and took three of them. After which I took some instructions on how I should nurture them, how many times to water, how much sunlight is needed etc so that they can grow the best. Within that very short span itself I felt the plants are alive! They need to be taken care of, they need t...

What's in a name?

  You maybe surprised to know that I have named my own self! Not because I didn’t like what my parents named me, but I accidentally uttered Vandita when the principal of the school where I was getting my admission done asked my name. Ever since I have known this, I used to wonder if my life would have been any different if I was rather called Nalini which was the name that was originally given to me by my parents. I have asked myself bizarre questions like, would I have had a different fate? Would I have bonded with different people? And so on and so forth. It was only with passing years that I realized that the only difference that it could have made in my life technically, would have been the position in which I appeared for my regular vivas during exams. My life in general would have been the same otherwise. It wasn’t until recently but, that I had to question the importance of a name in one’s life all over again after I starting calling my son by a not so unique or a rather co...

Live while you are still breathing!

What I experienced this morning was something that I had never experienced before, something that left me in a completely different state of mind for few hours after it happened, something that made me wonder a lot if things about life itself and something that came as a big lesson for me myself…what I experienced this morning was death of a middle aged man within a matter of minutes right in front of my own eyes! I boarded a train last night to travel back to Lucknow from New Delhi, and I was glad to have a side upper berth to myself with no interference's to face from the people sitting on the lower berths. I moved up and comfortably sat chit chatting on the phone and messaging my friends till the train moved. Within that half an hour the other people on the berth in front of me were have little conversations amongst themselves and cracking small little jokes about the weather, about electricity in the city and so on and so forth. After everyone settled I requested someone fr...
