Modern maata

Actually this one came up in a very unexpected friendly discussion with a very close buddy ... that there s such a derth of good content and infact relevant content when it comes to raising a kid in an Indian environment .. the working mother , the sabbatical mother , the home maker mother ..
The way kids were raised by our mothers vs the way we d want to raise them. Though babycentre.co.in proves to be quite helpful and insightful , but there s nothing more than this.
We can actually have a wikipedia of aaj ki maata , where most of us can keep adding comments and reviewing it further ...
An idea is just another passing thought , unless acted upon , so lets see what further brews up here.. Any suggestions and joining in , most welcome :  )

Binness

Its a funny thing , when u start doing your own business. First and foresmost you dont realise its a business. U do it simply out of passion out of wanting to being occupied , being productive , the want to earn and that certain amount of self confidence. 


Then u realise its been 2 years and you got to do something about it. Make it a bit more professional , get some goal , something to look forward to , else even this starts to get being monotonous. 
First of all not to many people really comprehend what u do and the definition of what you do changes from person to person. Depending whos asking !?
Then you start figuring out how to create your existence in this cut throat world ! You feel whether you should learn a bit more and then begin , teach some basic concepts in a very basic management school or college and then begin , or should you just goddamn begin !!


So here it is , i declare that i am going to have a website of my own coming soon. The name has already been coined. "Bridging Gaps"
Read this space for more interesting information on the journey of making Bridging Gaps a reality.

A Days Break !

Its an amazing feel to not to be with ur kids for a day and go trekking and freaking like old times. Yes thats , exactly what me and a couple of friends did. Went to Tungareshwar. Have to tell you , that I am not at all a (nature and adventure and trekking and whatever is associated with it ) person with such traits. But believe me you , I thoroughly enjoyed it yaar. It was superb , the climb up , then we chose 3 different spots for settling down with gud amount of substance abuse , mind you. And finally soaking ourselves under a very well hidden waterfall. As if dear God wanted us to have all of it , there were occasional showers as well. Beautiful man, a day like this in an otherwise very monotonous life was really refreshing. We all had the common liking for food , so ended up eating at Pritam da dhaba .. and ate and ate !! Along with my buddies even I was impressed with myself for doing and enjoying such an outing. Maza aagaya !

Ganpati Bappa Morya!

Yes sir , and we did it ! Its a totally different experience , one that you have to experience yourself in order to believe it. The preparations , the intentions , everything has to be so pious and in order .. Nothing that would displease him , not knowing how much would please him as well ! It was just 1.5 days that he was with us , but you feel like doing it everyday of your living life. Its not about idol worship , its about the faith and the belief , and this thing that holds family and friends together. I must say ( not being modest at all ) that the decor and the cut out came out well. We actually had the grass grown in front of the hut and trees. It was nice .. Pudchya varshi lavkar ya , Ganpati Bappa morya !!

Time well spent !

I d think of the title , once I finish writing this one ,, coz theres too much on my mind actually. I am plunging myself into a lot of new things ( self-initiated ) but looks like its getting a lil difficult to figure out on the time aspect. My inlaws keep 1.5 days ganpati , so I decided to put my long lost creative skills to use , and paint the backdrop. Boy but imagining it and actually doing it , is gonna be quite something. Yet to start the work. Thought I really need to make use of this time , that I am home, so started 30 min brisk walk and floor exercises at home. One day ka josh yaar. Its quite crazy to be so goddam self determined and driven. I always end up listening to my devilish conscience and screw it up. But it definitely has some bloody powerful control over me. I always give in. Then theres this oppurtinity with a company ( part time thingie ) , so really pursuing it. I dont know whats gonna come out of all this. Maybe for me to think later in life , that this was time well spent !! :) So I still end up doing things , thinking about what I'd think about them in future ....

To kya hua main maa hoon !

Yes , thats the thot these days in my head.. sometimes i think , work work work and then i think of the rubbish i d have to tolerate of the people whom i wouldnt wanna spend my precious time with ! So i end up being a good nice bhartiya nari house wife and most importantly " ek maa ! "
Its a very difficult junction in life now , actually speaking ...  Very difficult to draw the line on how much you d wanna let go .. ( time spend with the child ) 
I can go on and on and on about everything little to big thing about my son , Ishu .. my current job profile but I do seem to have lost the professional career me in the bargain , or you never know she would emerge once again with a greater zing and zeal !! ( too gud , love what i write and how i write !! )

Just arrived !

Yes , me finally started of using my ( self admired ) written skills to practice , you see. I always had the habit of maintaining diairies , so thought why not try this as well ?? Its a little difficult to figure out what one should write or say but nevertheless , its worth a try...
And the feel that your time was spent well enough : )
