The Optimistic Plus

Lockdown, a word that technically means a state of restriction of access taken in as a security measure. But this lockdown provided us a period to indulge oneself in some rational thinking and processing, it required us to take a break from this rapid pace of our lives, where everyone seemed to be a part of an endless race, that’s never going to end!! This break of human race from their regular lifestyle made those reforms in the nature, which were often discussed and debated by a number of learned Environment Activists, Scientists and even a layman on their social media platforms on The World Environment Day every year, back to back but never hit the ground reality. The Ganga and Yamuna, despite being the sacred rivers remained polluted the entire year but this lockdown phase gave them a new life and as per the recent news they have never be seen this clean in the last many years. Also, since this lockdown, we all have heard a number of positive news like the drastic downfall in t...

Well, we all moms one time or the other must have discussed about the endless responsibilities that motherhood is known to bring along with that cute and adorable baby of ours.

When the entire world is locked down....locked in the shackles of a deadly pandemic, a new chapter has just begun in my life. And this chapter is all about 'Self-love'...... Certain set of incidents happened in the last few days have taught me a lesson I would cherish my entire life time and would love to pass on this legacy to my boy. It is never worth taking loads of pleasing everyone, taking the pressure of being that perfect mom, that perfect wife, that perfect daughter, that perfect daughter-in-law and the list is endless. There exists "Nothing", I literally mean "Nothing", which is "Perfect" in all the true senses.

Appreciate them!!! Whole-heartedly!! Me being a mommy, a wife and ...
