Just another day full of realisations!

Just another day full of realisations!

26th June 2022

As I took some me-time, and sat down with my diary, pen and my chai, I realised, I didn’t have anything to write. With the past few months keeping me over occupied, I was feeling absolutely blank. I was constantly worried about the next day, not being in the present moment. I realised, the stress sometime showed on my face and most of the times I could feel it in my body. I would blame the situations, but the fact that I was not being able to manage my time, was irking me.

And then, I woke up early the next day, poured chai from my cute ikat grey ketli, gifted by a very dear friend, and sat to work for a little more than 2 hours with all my energy. The feeling of  ‘all tasks done’ hits different.

The whistle from the egg boiler told me it’s time to make egg sandwiches for breakfast, along with matar paneer for lunch. Getting done with kitchen chores before the little ones wakes up, feels like an accomplishment. It was 7:00 am by then!

After enjoying her daily Banana Shake, she gave me some more time to get done with cleaning the messy balcony that was left unattended for very long now. My help and I have made it shine and I’m looking forward to cups of chai in monsoons.

Met an old friend for coffee thereafter and was both amazed and happy to see him giving all the ‘life ka gyan’ to me. It was role reversal you see! 🙂 I wasn’t prepared for it, nevertheless that made me ponder on a lot of things about my own self.

We learn to live in our own stories, until someone gives us a reality check. 

There’s so much we can do in one day. Let’s just learn to live, One Day at a time!

    When you live through your experiences is the time you set yourself out for realisations.

    We’ll written,Avi
    It’s always nice to take cues from circumstances but navigate the situations your way…….. words written in the best of books may not be for everyone as each person is in a different space at a different time
    Enjoy the rhythm of life ….. sometimes full of creases yet enjoyable and other times seemingly placid but not enjoyable…..best wishes.
