Because it’s hard to say in Person!



We need men. We- mothers, daughters and sisters need men to raise ourselves. Most important role of any men is of Father. And that the bond of father-daughter shares is indescribable. I am not that type who would keep posting pictures with dad on Facebook or WhatsApp. Even I won’t hug my dad just to wish him Happy Father’s Day. And I might not want my dad to read this post also. So here it goes; my feelings for my dad.

Dearest Dad,

You are the only man in my life who loved me before I was even born. Loved me before I could open my eyes or speak anything. I am now 22 but your love for me still remains intact. I have always looked up to you, I want to become like you. Even as a child, I loved your attention; running behind you everywhere. I still remember the day when I changed my school, how you came till my classroom to drop me and ensured that I had a place to sit and someone as a classmate to make me comfortable. I still remember how those eyes were filled with pride when in every course, in every test, pretty much in anything when I excelled. Today when I get upset over my boss for talking in a harsh tone with me, I know you are always there to listen to it and make me understand. You know I love you the most because every time I met with an accident I was so afraid to call you, and when you would ask me the reason, I would end up crying by seeing you. You have till now never raised your voice when it comes to your daughter and that is I can easily share everything with you. I am so proud of the fact that you respect my every decision regarding studies or regarding marriage. You have never forced me for something. All you wanted is me to get excelled in whatever I do in my life and be independent to accomplish my own needs. On this day, I still remember the days of your struggle still providing best education in best school to me. You had to earn at age of 16 to survive and still you managed to get a degree on your own terms. And today you are so successful. Still I hate it when you don’t get yourself anything. And that is why even if once in a while you get yourself a phone or a car we are so happy. Every son should learn from you how to take care of his mother. I still know your endless sleepless night while grandmother was sick. You are the best. And dad, I promise you one day that I would get you a big car; would not let you pay for my weeding and under me you and mom would live a comfortable life. At least you deserve these after providing me the best education. Thank you isn’t enough for anything.

Yours loving daughter,
Pranjali

We miss you Grand mom!

That day, 31 st august, 2013; mom came in my room and in a heartbreaking tone she ordered me to shut off the T.V. I probably knew the reason but never wanted that to come true. As soon as I entered my grand mom room she lost all her senses. Did I really lose her? Was she no more in this world? I stood there; unable to move myself and trying to believe the reality! Tears came from my eyes. Everything stood still for me. I wish she lived more. I cried in an empty room remembering each and everything she did for me. My grandmother. More than a grand mom she was equal to my mom. I spent 19 years of my life with her. She pampered me like no one else and she probably had a hand in spoiling me and making me so stubborn. She used to tell me stories and sing lullabies every night to make me sleep till I turned 15. She would feed me at times when I had a row with my parents and she always fought with mom and dad to support me. She encouraged me even in studies and every time I used to ach

Book Review #1

Just Friends :D While searching for a fiction book to read at my sis’s place, my eyes suddenly stuck at the title "Just Friends" by Sumrit Shahi. The title itself forced me to pick up that book from the bunch of other fictions. And in the end all I could say is it was the best choice. Not because I was so willing to read it, but it was related to my life in some way. Whenever we talk about a romantic novel, we talk about Nicholas Sparks. When it comes to "Indian Authors" and "Love Stories", I stay away. But as soon as I read out the synopsis of the book, I couldn't wait to read it. It defines the same old question "Can a girl and a boy be just friends?" This question because at the end of the day a bond is formed; a bond secure enough to make us so habitual about each other. There are so many movies and books that defend that a guy and a girl can never be friends. The author has indeed penned down a straight from a heart

Minimalism

\   Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication -Leonardo Da Vinci Living a simple life has always fascinated me. My life revolves around my friends and family. They are enough to give me all the enjoyment I need. I do not require materialistic things to complete me. I am neither a fashion buff nor I have craziness about branded clothes. I get whatever I demand from my dad. Even though I am simple like other I celebrate my birthdays with huge cake, hang out with my friends often, and splurge on a nice hotel. I do all that makes me happy.   But sometimes we often complain of not having contented life. We compare our lives with our neighbors or friends or other family. Due to all this I see a world around me everything ballooning out of shape. Cars are the size of school buses, houses are as big as convection centers, shopping mall are the size of pentagon. It seems greedy to take more than my share of water, electricity, gas, ozone, food and goods. I think bigger is blander,
