I love when it rains. The clouds, the water, the plants, dip in temperature and all that comes with a downpour. May was all about the weather here in Bangalore. Rain Gods have been blessing us with showers and that’s a relief from the sweltering heat we experienced this summer. If I were to pick … More Gratitude List – May 2017
So it’s time to wrap up November. My favorite month of the year was a good one. It brought together all the elements required to keep me sane – good food, lovely friends, family time and a lot of writing. I am a little sad to let it go but I also understand that what … More Gratitude List – November 2016
After August, September turned out to be exactly like I had wanted it to be. Happy and healthy. Last three months of 2016 and my favorite time of the year is just a couple of hours away. Festivities, family time and the holiday season – all reasons to be happy. My gratitude list this month has … More Gratitude List – September 2016
A part of me is happy that August is over. Just a day more to go. A month of more downs than ups. However, a lot of people and things kept me going and my heart is full of gratitude. Friends have been the highlight this month and you will see the theme emerging from … More Gratitude List – August 2016
I still can’t believe May is over. This month just breezed through with the thunderstorms and showers that hit us recently. The temperature has dipped and it feels like our good old Bangalore once again.

With March ends the first quarter of 2016. It’s the close of the financial year too and in Bangalore looks like we are in for the hottest summer ever. The temperatures have been soaring and the once all-year-round pleasant Bangalore is not the same anymore. I will attribute all this to changing weather conditions and … More Gratitude List – March 2016
It feels like yesterday when VT and I were planning about our travel back to India from Hong Kong. That was 2015 and today is the last day of February 2016. Where are all these days flying away? Work, life, a road trip and everything in between has given me no time to breathe this month. … More Gratitude List – February 2016
Recently I have been feeling that life is passing by so fast that I am not able to catch up and look at how January has whizzed by. It feels like yesterday when I was talking about my New Year plans and now the new year is already a month old. Anticipation, hopes, resolutions and changes … More Gratitude List – January 2016
There is a lot to be thankful for in life, yet we are not. We complain, we fail to appreciate little things and then wonder why am I not happy? I read Rhonda Bryne’s The Secret some two years back and since then the desire to create a Gratitude List was on my mind. This book talks about … More Gratitude List – May 2015
Yesterday in my Yoga class, somewhere during mid of the session, our instructor asked us to jump and move 90 degrees with the legs apart.
