Today’s questions are simple and straightforward. Do you often extend kindness to others? When was the last time a kindness was extended to you?I may not be kind if it is in terms of extending money or resources.

My Reading Journey
Reading was my hobby since childhood. During my school days, my father used to buy children magazines for us very often. ‘Champak’, ‘Nandan’, ‘Balhans’ and few other Indian child magazines like these were a frequent visitor to my house, mostly in Hindi, and sometimes in English. We used to solve the puzzles and riddles in […]
Will she study?
Written for Ragtag Daily Prompt Definition: Upbeat – adj. pleasantly optimistic. Rita is over the moon today. She looks radiant and content. She is joyful and upbeat more than anything. She tip-toed and danced all her way from school towards her home – a clay hut on the bank of the river. Her school bag hangs […]
A hint of yellow is a joy forever
I walk past the empty lanes,The gardens look deserted,Not much to catch my eyes,I search for a glint so bright,Up on the wall a flower blooms,And my eyes lit up to the view,It’s a yellow bud, rose I guess,So tiny but bright enough,To light up the barren lanes,Engulfing all gloomy hints. Written in response to; dVerse, […]

As it goes far enough to appear a dot,Some strings buzz in the emtpy heart,Streams of memories and times,Flows, rattles and rhymes. Sometimes destiny separates,Creating an endless rift,But […]
Birthday

Colors and more
Jessica woke up with the sound of tiny droplets on her window panes. She saw the clock hung on the wall of her room. It was 4 am, too early for her to wake up. But sleep eluded her eyes as the coldness in the weather filled her room and her heart. She grabbed her […]
Unstoppable she became
She changes sides and tries to sleep,She takes a walk and hides to weep,Oblivious of her inner storm,She strolls past to re-gain her norm.So much has passed in these days,So much is passing in many ways,Life ceased to charm and entice,Anxiety just stole her spice.She posed questions and queries,To God and all those around,Unnoticed, none […]
New Beginnings
Hi readers! I had taken a short break from blogging. It’s nice to be back and interact with all of you again. I have embarked on a new journey as I embraced motherhood this October. Though it’s tiring, but it’s giving so much bliss and making all the efforts totally worth it. I am making […]
