Busy–ness & Expediency vs. Love

-
I apprehend that I might have somehow gave an impression of being very busy lately as I am most of the time inactive on facebook and lazy with other modes of communication but the truth of the matter is that I try my best to keep myself active. Busy as well as being creative and productive with our time I think is a sheer blessing, therefore my day routine is almost moving from one quarter of an hour to another with many chores and at the end of it all when I sit in front of this 14’’ screen and put my heart out to all of you is the most wonderful climax I could imagine to my day.

Although I was also busy in the past; nevertheless, it was only to meet my own requirements and lift the burden of regular life. Life could become a miracle with magnificent outcomes when you surrender it to the Higher Power and let Him navigate every moment, hour and day.

This is what happens to me when I am tired, I speak of things which have significance for me only and I overlook the fact that all of you are there as well; hence I could only but apologize for my conduct.

Sometimes the society and its norm; or our own ego create hindrances for us to be sympathetic and concerned and we forgo the laws logic and rationality; or our stance in any situation makes us rigid to the extent of being callous and our expediency takes over our compassion. And if all this is accompanied by the fear- fear of rejection, fear of rebuff then what a misery life turns into.

We need to ask ourselves- do we prefer to be right or do we prefer to be happy…

Night presses on so as the need to move towards the comfort of duvet.

Lots of love & more……………

Sonya. (Day 133)

After fighting with an alien cat in my dream, I am awake at 1.30 am. It all is followed by a futile effort of building a sleep pattern of 9.30 pm to 6 am. Alas, not all wishes come true at once. No problem I will keep on working. Being a really smart gal I have messed up with my sleep-wake cycle long ago, and today when I accidentally opened Rujuta Diwekar’s video on cortisol on my facebook page- I realized what has been going on with me.  For all of you who are not aware that I am a distant relative of Kareena Kapoor Khan and Rujuta is the link who tied  Kareena and me  together. You all must be wondering why have I never discussed this earlier, why I took so long to disclose my bond with Kareena. Let me explain.   Rujuta Diwekar is a God’s blessing for all the fools like me who for some stranger reason believe(ed) that going on USA or UK-based diet programs would make us patla (thin/ lean). It was Rujuta’s eating desi ghee and daal sabzi ch...

From Home to Dubai: A New Year's Journey

-
 A very happy new year to all my lovely family, dearest friends & amazing readers. I am amazed that on 1 January 2024 for the first time in my life I am not home but in Dubai. Dubai, a city of lights, kites, bikes, heights, and of course Rolls Royce; where people of so many beautiful & different languages, cultures come for earning livelihoods, some for shopping, others to optimize their wealth and while others come aboard on winters to have some fun. Dubai was not in my bucket list because it was synonymous to earning money and I hardly had any sense or concept of wealth. All I enjoyed is the little pocket-money that my mom used to give me out of my own salary and that was my life. I could buy coffee, I could go crazy with stationary shopping (I know stationary sounds crazy but I never claimed to be normal). However, it all changed about two years ago when, one fine day, my mom handed over the burden of financial management over to me. No more pocket money but I will b...

23rd March is the  Pakistan Day or Pakistan Resolution Day, also our Republic Day, a national holiday in Pakistan commemorating the Lahore Resolution passed on 23 March 1940. Today after a long time, I have truly felt celebrating Pakistan Day- amazing parade by our esteemed armed forces, rangers, police, also participated by our distinguished friends and guests.  A warm welcome to Malaysian Prime Minister Mr. Mahatir Bin Mohamad on his visit to Pakistan. Congratulations and best of wishes to our Prime Minister Mr. Imran Khan, his team and our President for all their efforts and hard work. I am extremely grateful to Muhammad Ali Jinnah and all the great leaders who gave us the Gift of Pakistan, so we all can live with  dignity and breathe the air of independence.  Pakistan Zindabad!     Around December 2008 I started writing this blog, I could have never imagined that I would last writing it the next year yet I continu...
