Do Not Stare, We Are Breastfeeding Our Baby

Do Not Stare, We Are Breastfeeding Our Baby

Do not stare, we are just breastfeeding our baby! High time we speak about the importance of breastfeeding, and the taboos surrounding it.

In lieu of the #WorldBreastfeedingWeek2019, I just want to contribute my writings in a reminder that breastfeeding might be a mother’s task but it is everyone’s responsibility in order to provide a private and secure environment for the new mothers.

CCD founder VG Siddhartha pays the debt with his life

Waking up to the news of the sad demise of the founder of India’s largest coffee chain Cafe Coffee Day, VG Siddhartha left me questioning what goes inside the human mind when one decides to take such huge step?

Five things I learned while growing up

Five things I learned while growing up

We learn and we grow, I say this all the time to everyone I meet, to everyone I try to encourage and follow their passion. Growing up is not giving up.

Albert Einstein said that “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” Hence I test my abilities for myself. I trust in my instincts and I follow my heart.

Bollywood and Mental Stress

Bollywood and Mental Stress

Success is no guarantee for satisfaction, as I condemn, Bollywood says it all!

Life at Bollywood

Bollywood is no less than a dreamland. The actors and actresses as in the role of the shining stars set dreams…

Why do I love blogging?

While there are so many reasons I love to write and created this blog, there is this single reason which is the most important to me 🙂

प्रति – योगिनी

यह पल एक जीवन शाला है इसके तृण तृण में सार समाया है कुछ मिथ्या है तो कुछ सत्य कुछ मिलावट है तो कही थोड़ी सजावट है

रोज़ नए पाठ पढ़ाते हुए हर एक क्षण का हिसाब लगाते हुए समय की सुई के साथ कदम मिलाते हुए बस चलते जाना है

जो ये खेल है जीवन का, तो कठोर तप मेरा सांझाकार है जो ये खेल है बल बुद्धि का, तो मेरा आत्मविश्वावस मेरा साझेदार है

ज़िन्दगी में उतार चढ़ाव का सामना करना अब कुछ हद तक सिख लिया जो न सीखा उसके लिए…

कुछ पुराने पन्ने -कविताएं और दोहे

कुछ पुराने पन्ने -कविताएं और दोहे

मुझे हिंदी कविताएं और दोहे बेहद पसंद है, पढ़ना भी और लिखना भी..आज अपने स्कूल का ज़माना बहुत याद आता है जब हमे हिंदी की क्लास में कविताएं पढाई जाती थी, हम पढ़ तो लेते थे पर तब उन कविताओं का वास्तविक जीवन में क्या अर्थ है यह समझ पाना कठिन होता था.

आज जब ज़िन्दगी में थोड़ा आगे बढ़ने लगे है, उम्र के पड़ाव पार करने लगे है कुछ कविताएं और कुछ पुराणी कहावते खुद बा खुद संगीत की मधुर ध्वनि की तरह ज़ेहन में…
