DAY 297 (Social sickness)

So I have been having this “social sickness” for a while now. It’s funny that before the pandemic, life was so occupied that we didn’t have time to breathe from the social life. Going to office was itself a fully social day. 

It has been a good isolated run for a year and a half, with a bonus of being away from people, travel, traffic and mechanic routine. There is just one routine now.. the crazy routine ! 

But slowly it so happened that we got so caught up in the crazy routine that there was no time to be social even over phone calls and video chats. And now, when there is a day that seems to have an hour to be able to talk to someone outside the 4 walls.. I realised I am unable to find any. There are some whom I could never give time and now they don’t have time for me, and there are some who couldn’t give me time then or now and there are some who are there and I am here but I don’t know what to talk. So basically it ended up having this weird sickness called social sickness.

So now that I don’t have anyone to get over this sickness, I chose few “things” to help me out. Read double, start listening to a podcast, run more frequently, spend time over things that seem handy.. like work.. always handy and plenty !

But a humane touch is something else. Then I talked about it with my husband (who has the solution to everything in the world always!). So once again he came to my rescue and taught me to move on from what I can’t get to what I have ! 

We are going to travel to my sister’s wedding in a couple of months and that’s gonna make me wanna be unsocial again .. that’s a ray of hope! 

We booked tickets to visit our friends at the end of the year .. which seems promising. 

So now I am taking one day at a time, one person at a time, one sickness at a time and trying to fly through this weird phase. 

And well, it’s my birthday month (yay!) and I was supposed to start celebrating and keeping myself happy and pampered from the first day of the month but then there were love lost and sickness found so I am just left with 2 days. Every year from past few years it has been happening that my most exciting time of the year goes away with a fart for some or the other stupidity that I do… but there is still hope as long as there are days left even though it’s just 2 days coz as I said.. I am taking one day at a Time ! Cheers to that ! And happy advance birthday to me 😄

DAY 321 (Bring the change!)

 If you are a mother and if you keep cribbing about societal issues and the way kids have been brought up in our generation, keep reading. Well, every generation have their own issues and we all progress in a way or another. But even after generations of changes there is one common issue which is discussed in all forums (professional and personal/ formal and informal/ planned and unplanned) is patriarchy.  I am not one of those feminist who advocate for the world to turn into a matriarch to take revenge on the oppression generations of women have been facing. I honestly vote for equality. And I think most of us do. However, what do we actually do to bring that change?  Apart from discussing and being profound at the takeaways, I don’t think there is any progressive step that we actually take. I do feel that to take the step it does not have to be groundbreaking. Everything starts at home and so this solution starts at home too.  Most of the time, we start discussing ...

DAY 91 (Yukkkk..!!!)

Another GODFATHER for guys is out now....and yes I am talking about LSD (Love Sex and Dhoka) ! Standing ovation for Miss Ekta Kapoor who chose to leap from the head to toe covered Saas and bahus to directly all nude perverts...!!  I have seen guys being so curious for this movie probably because its been a long time after DEV D for them to watch something "meaningful" like this. I find you tube links of the promos and the special songs of the movie in their social networking site's status and they are just so proud of that. I am ...and I am sure every girl is amazed with the criteria of their meaningfulness! Either everything yukkkyyyy is just their type or they have not been keen to explore any other thing in the world than this! I am sick and tired of the caller tunes which I get to hear now whenever I call up any one of them and then I just do not want to talk any further after that. I believe learning Biology compulsorily till class 10th atleast has given only t...

DAY 105 (When life is awesome...!!)

As I was about to join a job...people told me..that you are gonna lose all your independence and happiness now....cutting off the social network by default...and then you'll realize...what a mess it is and what golden days those 10 "doing-nothing" months were! I used to just shrug it off...because I do not like to predict like everyone else. And now...most of them have got the answers. I have never been happier than this. I do all I missed to do ever...all I loved to do ever...with my grey cells working in parallel as well which is like a perk! Playing table tennis,an urge to learn guitar or atleast try to do so was like few of the things I could never carry on with...due to zillions of factors. But where there is a will...there is a way! I got all I desired packed up in the most beautiful and satisfactory environment ever. What else could I ask for? I have met like some of the most interesting and loveliest people ever (I know...that in professional life...everyon...
