Happy 30th to me!

-
Brrrrrrrr....30 years old not bad haaan! I say to my self. The fact that I don't even look or behave like   I am  25 is really cool. I don't even feel I'm 30. 

It was a sweet birthday. My father in law gave me a bagful of gifts so nice if him. He is a gem of a person not because he gave me gifts but because he is. Someday I will write a blog for him. Went out with monsieur H on the 7th evening to bring in the birthday. He gave a lovely card with lovely messages written and options for what I wanted for my birthday. woke up in the morning with work related phone calls. And so many called to wish from all over . I was thrilled with phone calls that were not even expected. Went to the temple ,mety grand parents in law took their blessings. Then I went meet my favorite - my grandfather ! He gave me this amazing hand written letter, he can't write cause his hands have become stiff due to age. But he still wrote for me. I love hand written letters. That's one of the best gifts ever. By now most of you'll who know me , know my fondness for my grandfather. I met my cousins spent sometime there.

Post which I met close friends for some fun at marina cafe which overlooks the sea beautiful weather perfect company great music . Thank them for taking out time!

We went to this new place called colaba social its a fun loungey place to hang out cut my birthday cake there. So finally I'm 30and the truth is that, it was a fun day enjoyed spent time with my favorite people and yeah back to work now.

A letter to Grishma 10 years from now

When I was in 8th / 9th standard, I started to keep a diary where I wrote down all my thoughts and secrets. From my frustrations with the exam results, to my friend’s secret story , to my own version of chicken soup for the soul, It would’ve been nice if I can read again what I wrote then and maybe tap into my old self. Unfortunately, however, I’m an idiot who misplaced that diary. Much thanks to the internet, I can now keep a diary and read it anytime, anywhere. And so, I’ve decided to write a letter, addressed to my self ten years from now. By then, I’d be 34, and maybe, just maybe… I’d still be very happy. Dear 34 y/o Grishma, How are you? I honestly hope and pray that you’re doing well and that things have turned out the way you planned them to. Have you seen the world yet? I know you have always wanted to do that, to get out of this place, not to run away from it all but to experience the world as it was made to be. By now, I’d assume you’ve been to Japan, Australia and America al

Until We Meet Again, dadu, I love you.  A note to you, heartbroken one: Today, we say our goodbyes to one of the most incredible men I have ever met in my entire life. we feel the empty void very clearly. The head of the family is no longer here with us, He lived a good life a really good one I would say. Whatever he wished wanted has always come true.  But we know that he is no longer in pain, and is now in a place that is more amazing than the best possible day here on Earth. We also know that this is just a temporary goodbye. We know we will see him again. I wrote dadu a letter a couple of days ago. I process things and express myself best in writing, so this was my way of saying goodbye to him. I never want to forget this letter. I love you, dadu . I can’t believe I’m writing this letter to you. I guess I never thought about what it would be like when you would no longer be here. You have always been such a key part of my life, and such a steadfast and healthy part; I never let mys

So lots of us are cribbing at this time, the entire country is in quarantine. It's been 8 days..and another 20 to go. I am just saying that make the most of it. We will never get this time back again. We will never get this break..of-course working from home but the time that we have, the extra time . Its amazing. Like i am really enjoying it. We will not even know and it will be over. It is just okay to slow down and just take a back seat. Wake up, listen to the birds chirp   🦅 - no sound of vehicles or traffic whatsoever. Cool breeze ⛰  - no pollution, clean air. Eat home food 🥘  - make your own- the way you like it - just the way you like it. Your pace  🐢 - Do things at your pace- no rush-hush- deadline. Light candles 🕯  - a different fragrance everyday- light your room-light from within Write 🖊  - I am not a seasoned writer. I can only write if I am feeling something strongly. And since the time I have been at home, feeling so many things, it's so good to
