Its about this new year 2026, and importance of making formal ‘new year resolutions’. Having it all written down in black and white is important. Especially, when its hand written – even though I normally type my words – I have a personal diary for expressing my feelings etc. Its also important to keep your resolutions to yourself. Only share when these are done. Not before that.
While women are good at supporting family members to their success. When they are successful themselves, they are shy to own up to it. Always giving the credit to someone else. It is time to now stand up proudly and own up to all the successes of your lifetime. Especially now, in 2026 onwards. If there is one thing I want us to take forward, it is to be unapologetically proud of your successes.
Everything comes with its side work. So, when dreams come true, we have to work on them later too. In all our rushing around getting things done, remember, this is what you had dreamed of. Stop cribbing and complaining. Enjoy it for what it is. What did you think, a dream will come true, and there will be nothing left for you to do about it? Exactly!

A round up of 2024 here, as most of the time I wasn’t here. Losing my Mother during that time has been the most heart wrenching part of it. Otherwise, God blessed me in every way, as you see.
Ending with sharing of my aspirations for this year 2025. May God bless each of you and myself, along with our families. May our dreams come true. May sanity prevail in the world. It gets pretty scary sometimes. As my mother always said, ‘Life is as you make it!’

Honestly, seeing the current political scenario in Pakistan, one does feel disheartened. Its sad, but that is how it feels. When all that you have believed in, and all that you’ve lived by is turned upside down. When suddenly black is white and white is black, you wonder where you stand in all this. If …
Writing a blog post in an everchanging scenario is challenging. Yet, I’ve started it, and want to complete it now. It is 11.00 am, Friday 9th of February. I started this post a couple of days ago, and kept writing, as I went to vote. Now, let me complete this. Firstly, illiteracy and democracy doesn’t …
