Fear

Fear is often used as powerful emotion in advertising world. We buy products and take many decisions out of fear. Take a pause, and think how many products we buy just out of fear? Interestingly fear also helps in inculcating good habits in us. I never noticed this until my son showed me a demo. I have been asking my to son to brush his teeth before sleeping, he used to make big deal, throw tantrums etc.  One day he felt pain after eating chocolate, I took an opportunity and told him probably you don't brush at night.  Since that day, even if I skip,  he remembers to brush. Fear of going to dentist and injection worked. Then I realized Fear is not only a positive emotion in advertising world,  it plays a vital role in shaping our life,  developing integrity and ethics. 

Let the things unfold

 At times, you only need to do is let the things unfold with the time. Believe in what you are doing and keep doing!

Place you are

While you are not contented for where you are, there are many who desire to be at your place.

A msg to all moms

Dear Moms If after a hectic day at work or house, you know you have to spend time with your kid for homework or play or anything.  But,  you don't feel like instead you want to go out for a walk, you want to watch television or stalk mobile or anything. Please do it.  It's okay. Don't let that guilt creep in,  'I was already busy whole day and now again I need time for self'.  Whatever you have been doing entire day was not your self time. You deserve that one hour or so of quality time with self.  This mom guilt is bad,  it can come anytime without knocking. It just keeps on looking for an opportunity to be with you.  Keep it away!  Regards Fellow mom

she found solace in the stranger

Couple of  weeks back, I was with my friends in a club. My friend M and I were standing near restroom, a bubbly looking girl came and joined the queue. She was giggling and looking at us. My friend M asked her if all was well, I added she seems to be happy high. She laughed loud, looked into our eyes, suddenly hugged me and started crying and shared her heart out.  She mentioned, I was about to become a bride in few days, everything  was so perfect until I got to know He was cheating on me. I broke my relationship and now there is no marriage.  M and I hugged her back,  cheered her up and complimented her for being courageous. She saved herself  from a probable toxic marriage.Indeed some breakups are worth celebrating. We don't know her name, neither she knows ours. But for that moment, she found solace in strangers.  At times, these judgement free moments are all we need. 

It's a wonderful day!

It's a wonderful day today!   He announced I was surprised and asked really? Even after what happened few hours ago. He gave the most innocent smile and said yes it is.  Few days back,  my son was throwing real big tantrum and was being super stubborn and crying for no reasons(He would be having clear agenda though). I tried reasoning but he was in no mood to listen.  I lost on him,  scolded him and gave hifive on his cheek( don't judge! You should never judge a mother) This all went for a while till things turned to normal self. After few hours, when I was doing my daily chores and he was playing around he said, such a wonderful day it is.  I realized, it's all about the mindset, how we look at the things. He just let it go what happened and was more interested in present moment. Hence, he chose to make day wonderful for himself.  It's all about how we see and perceive the things.  How easily we spoil our entire day because of one sad moment...
