My Two Cents

Allhumdolillah! I am at a much better place since my last post with series of lab tests, utlrasounds, a mammogram and some other really scary tests, and a gut wrenching anxiety of results. I am doing well thankfully everything was clear except low iron levels with vitamin d3 deficiency. These deficiencies are now on their way to recovery. It is worth noting that I have been struggling with intense brain and physical fatigue since 2019 but not a single doctor was able to identify my problem. Once somebody is diagnosed with depression or anxiety then every health issue they complain about is looked from the psychological lenses. Nobody asked me to check iron, vitamin b12 or vitamin d3 deficiencies even my mum who is a dermatologist always assured me that I am fine and this weakness is just a phase.   It was a phase alright, it engulfed almost 8 years of my life pushed back my career and research ambitions.  This is not the case alone with me but there are many people who silentl...

Day 45

There is nothing to write, nothing to discuss, nothing to reminisce just plain idle mind with no inflow of thoughts. Contemporary gadgets are there to occupy the idle mind but subsequently it all reaches a threshold and we become immune to its enchantment, its not alluring any longer. Night is falling in rather hastily yet there is no inclination to repose. Nevertheless, time presses us to give in and let sleep does it wonders. Morning, yes morning would afresh the brain cells, give them the required zest. With the hope to have an active, positive yet creative day. Love and sweet dreams for all………. Sonya.

Masking/ Unmasking

Is it reasonable to dislike something to dissect or scrutinize negative aspects of anything? Or is it if we observe negative then only we would be in a position to infer what positive is and what positive looks like. If this is the case then things are known by their opposites. Only darkness of night would make us realize the importance of sunshine. So in a way Bad is fine because it helps us to recognize Good . Reading about someone else’s persona urged me to take a hard look on my own public demeanour. To be honest I am in the distant and aloof category; to get out there, do my job, give it the desired input, pack my bag and straight back to home. No interference with others, except for courtesy reasons. Certainly if approached for a personal moment from the other, I shall be considerate but never the initiator. This modus operandi was adopted when I decided to become a lawyer, since law is male dominated thus to stay out of trouble, to survive, to learn and to be taken seriou...

Agatha Christie

Unnecessary worries sprout when the basic principles of prudence and common sense are disregarded. May this never happen to anyone of us, Amen! Past few days have been long and nights were lame, although there was so much to express but sitting in front of 14’’ screen or TV became nauseas and almost unbearable with the only urge to get some decent sleep. So instead of gawking at screen I preferred to shift my focus on books. No philosophical or intellectual wish-wash rather I opted for my personal favourite genre of murder mystery, and there is no better choice then to go for Agatha Christie’s classic “ The Mystery of the Blue Train ”. Agatha Christie is synonymous with England. Her quintessential “English” characters offer a charming view of a bygone era when people sat down to tea in the afternoon, tended roses in their gardens and where village life provided all the scandal one could ever want to hear; with glamorous characters, exquisite hotels and expensive trains ...
