Dear July, You felt too long. But then you always do. You were hot and warm and humid and there were bouts of sadness and angst and anger. Days I wanted to hide from the world and run away to somewhere better. But there were blessings too. Finally getting the much coveted jab. Reading some good books. Journaling. Writing. Some happy mail. Being good. Terrace time. Watching the rains. Finding peace. You were a mixed bag. A little good, a little bad and a tad bit sad. See ya next year. Love, Pooja. . . . #July #letters #notetoself #collage #monthinagrid #mymonthincolour #monthlyfavorites #bookmarks #art #books #bibliophile #bookstagram #nothingisordinary #favourites #favouritethings #momentsofmine #delightfullyordinary (at West Bengal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSAFhsWpMGA/?utm_medium=tumblr

Dear June, My little letter to you is going to be a love note. A note of thanks really, because you have (largely, for most part) been wonderful in so many ways. I read so many books. For a while it felt like my old self had resurfaced. I finished books in a day. Read some amazing stories and even did a spot of book buying. There were also several horror books read on rainy nights. There were other highlights to: There was good coffee. Cute new mugs. A plethora of great Malyalam films. Nights of Art Journaling. A bit of Happy Mail every now and again. Rainy Days. Laughter. Wisdom. And being quiet and happy. You were good to me June. Thank you 💗 All my Love & Gratitude, Pooja . . . #letters #monthinagrid #mymonthincolour #collage #June #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #gratefulheart #gratitude #givethanks #rains #monthlyfavorites #bookmarks #coffeetime #livethelifeyoulove #livethelittlethings #liveauthentic #momentsofmine (at India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQwRKP4J7C7/?utm_medium=tumblr

Dear May, Hmm...how are you over already? Looking back I can barely remember anything...maybe it's some brain fog but honestly you went by in a blur. The world didn't have a good month. Everywhere you look you found violence, death, destruction and anger. A strange month. In my corner of the world there was grief, sorrow, healing, rest and confusion. There were some silver linings too.. Some amazing books. Regional cinema. Re-watching some of Ray's best works. Rains. A spot of book buying. Beautiful handmade things. You were a mixed bag May. I hope by the next time we see you, the world is a happier place. All my Love, Pooja PS: My Monthly Faves and My Reading Wrap-Up for May are up on the blog.

Dear February, I am always a little blue when you leave. My favourite month comes and goes in a jiffy. A month full of birthday joys, cake, celebration, feeling special and gifts. A month I feel most cherished and loved. Also a month that makes me introspect about life and how far I've come and how much I've achieved and lost and given up. Birthday blues are real and terribly inconvenient. But overall this has been a month of joy. Of growing older, maybe wiser. Of buying beautiful handmade things. Of reading 10 books. Of blogging everyday. Of staying in. Of journaling. Of sleeping loads. Of writing a little bit. Of being comfortable in my own skin. You were good February. As you always tend to be. Come back soon.

Dear March, You always feel so long, not in a bad way, it's not your fault you follow February which goes by in a blink. You were good March. Full of gentle days, some sweltering, but mostly pleasant and full of goodness. Good books. God, so many good books read and bought. Reading women. You also brought some beautiful things in my life, mostly handmade and mostly from independent entrepreneurs. You were full of good films, mostly old, mostly from the 90s and finding some new TV shows to watch. You made me take things slow. Clean like a maniac. Re-jig my books. You made me journal more and make more of my silly videos. You were good to me. Thank you and come back soon. 🌸 All my love, Pooja . . . #monthinagrid #mymonthinagrid #collage #March #musings #letters #notetoself #unutteredmusings #writeups #writersofig #jewellery #bag #livefolk #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookishfeatures #igreads #booksbooksbooks #indianblogger #mumbaiblogger #art #grateful #monthlyfavorites #aesthetic #postitfortheaesthetic #light https://www.instagram.com/p/BvsBkbwHAiF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dhb8393l4ma7

Dear February, Sorry that this letter comes to you so late. I guess, you being my favourite month often translates into me being sad to see you leave. Short and sweet and full of celebration,you are always special and I am always sad to see you leave. This year you were phenomenal. I turned a year older. Traveled somewhere new. Explored remnants of the past. Pondered over the future. Chased light. Felt loved. Read some good books. Added more colour to my world. You were kind February, very kind and lovely. A birthday month of dreams. Thank you and come back soon.

Dear January, You were a mixed bag. You started rough and I felt like we were doomed from the start, but then things turned around..the clouds lifted and the light filtered through. You were a sneaky surprise January. You brought cold winter days that warmed my spirit. Bright mornings drenched in light. 17 books read. 20 films watched. Old, sepia toned films ruled the roost in my corner of the world. Flowers in unexpected places. Delightful things in the mail. A spot a sensible sale shopping. Planning, Journaling and documenting. A month I grew fond feelings for, eventually. Thank you for the lessons January. All my love, Pooja 🌻 . . . #mymonthinagrid #monthinagrid #monthlyfavorites #January #thoughts #longcaption #notetoself #writersofinstagram #writing #musings #unutteredmusings #winter #littlethings #postitfortheaesthetic #collage #documentyourdays #whimsy #whimsybookworm #mumbai #bloom #ootd #stylediaries https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUR87AHPGP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n8jvmatkbkit
