Its Day 1 of #21Day lockdown First time something like this happening and its scary. More you follow whatz app and social media more nervous and fearful you get. So probably social distancing should include social media distancing as well When people all over the world are fearing Corona virus , staying home to fight it, this is right time to sit back and introspect and identify fears that we have gathered over time. This one was more difficult than I thought it would be. When I can list 10 secrets , 9 loves ,fears are just 8 so it must be easier. But it was not so and I realised this challenge is going to get tougher as I reach to number one. As we get older some fears that we had as kids just vanish and we unknowingly develop new ones which make us wonder if innocence of childhood makes us bolder. Over weekends watching fear factor makes me ponder how many faces fear can have. Fear of cars, fear of speed, fear of water, fear of reptiles, animals, cockroaches ,height ,elec...

No tiffin on Friday for long break .....पावभाजी देणार आम्हाला " Wait was over and he was beaming :) Today morning hour was smooth. Additional update was along w...

With 2020 , Digital declutter is on and here I found this. Its Thursday as well so it qualifies for Throwback ;) Rewind > "This boy just doesn't study" I was complaining to friend of mine. "He is an engineer's son so will study only in Prep leave ;)"He replied. "Let him grow up and take admission to Engineering course and then he will qualify for it" I am not ready to budge and somehow 15 days before exam starts we start our study. When it comes to English literature (I need to admit , I was shXX scared of this word Literature when I heard it first in Std 1st now till std 4th I have somehow digested it.) we do lessons first as it has lot many ques answers...long ..short.. RTC....meanings ..who said to whom etc etc.(If you don't understand these words consider yourself lucky and continue reading :) "Poems are simple.Just one Page and answers are also mostly one liners."Junior has valid point. So me (yes you read ...

Love of your parents, grandparents, husband ,wife, friends, cousins,...

Being typical Virgo I am surely not going to reveal my secrets :) Once you share them they no longer be secrets . But there are surely few things which not many would know.Let me try to write about them. 1.Selective Perfectionist  Yes that is what I am when it comes to folding clothes.It has to be folded in certain manner and no deviation in that. I am ok if clothes are lying around (selective perfectionist)but if they are going in cupboard they have to be folded in right manner. This leads to real messy home at time.I am trying to get rid of selectiveness and achieve that true perfectionist state and one day will surely succeed. 2.Minimalism Lately smitten by bug of minimalism.I know if people who know me get to hear this they will have good laugh. "सौ चुहे खाके बिल्ली चली हज " That is the remark will get. But my answer is finally at least on the way of Huj  From extreme maximalist( I know this is not the exact word but it convey...
