On this Women’s Day 2019 lets set the record straight. We all are going to get our rights together. Our struggle is against cruelty and injustice. We can only win by fighting for success together, with each other’s support.
Self-talk to heal
Sigh! I’ve begun to love my readers. Writing is a labor of love anyway, but to be writing for you, is a privilege because I know you are amazing. Let me say, that your responses have made me feel so close to you all. In the past two weeks or so, (after my father passed …
Social Media & My Playlist
We are in a world of social media whether we accept it or not. Like everything else, it has its good and bad side. And like everything else it also needs to be used with care. That’s all.
Good memory takeaways
A post about lovely events and its takeaways. You see every event has something which is of use to us all. So, I’ve noted these too. There is the bonfire writer’s meet up, the wedding of my loyal staff member Abdul Rahim’s son. Also, the gifts of paintings I’ve received. All these are takeaways of life.
Over three trimesters of life.

Is My Life Meaningful?
What is life? Is it just this noise of the daily rushing around? Completing the ‘things to do’ list? Meeting deadlines, going from one rushy hour to the next? Always, counting to see if one can make ends meet, or get that little bit of extra too? Loving food, dresses, make up, handbags, car, house …
Election Day, 2018

Weather is hot and humid these days, so we wanted to be there much earlier. But I had to bathe and change my eighty-three-year-old mother, …
