Thoughts and comments on just about anything and everything….
This, that and the other.
I’ve always been accused of tipping ‘too much’. There’s no such thing. People, in especially the service industry, slog a lot. I have got this receipt from when I was in Mumbai in 2008. My total was Rs. 311 & I put down a Rs. 500 note and asked him to keep the change. He came back with this note written, and a sweet for … Continue reading How much is too much?ย
“Excuse Me Please, Have You Got A Momentโฆ?” Usually when someone says that to me I groan inwardly because these words are generally uttered by those relentless people standing at strategic places in shopping malls trying to sell you time share holidays you have no interest in. Or maybe itโs just me who attracts such people. The thing is that Iโm usually rushing to get … Continue reading “Excuse Me Please, Have You Got A Momentโฆ?”
I saw this shared by a lovely friend on Facebook and just had to pass it on. We both aren’t aware who the original author is but this was just too beautiful not to pass on. Continue reading The Law of Karma
I used to love wearing bangles, then I stopped. Last night I brought down the shoebox I store them in and got carried away adorning my wrists. I stopped wearing bangles because someone else didn’t like them or approve of them. I gave up doing something that made me happy because someone else didn’t like what I did. Don’t do that to yourself. You deserve … Continue reading Wear your bangles…
Back in 2007 when I’d just joined East FM, the then Manager of Fox Theatres sent complimentary tickets for the entire East FM team to go and watch Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. I recall that we all met up and watched it at Capital Centre. The next day I called the very generous Manager to thank him and he was quite taken aback and said that … Continue reading Some gratitude…
I think it may have been last year or early this year when I saw the most beautiful doll cake on a Facebook page. I stopped to comment on the picture, duly admired the beautiful cake and added that I’d never had a doll cake in my life. Fast forward to yesterday and I received a call while doing my show. I was told there’s … Continue reading A Doll Cake At Last!ย

I have finally finished this doodle. A lot of thinking has gone into it! I usually don’t doodle for creative reasons. It’s because I’m thinking of something that needs to be sorted in my head before I negatively react to it. I’ve always done this since I was a kid. Mum often recalls that when I’d be upset, angry or in need to destroy my … Continue reading Doodling and Anger Managementย
We inherit genetics from our parents, and thatโs a given. Is it a must that we also inherit what they own? Iโve often thought about this and donโt agree with it at all. Iโll tell you why, and Iโll run this through you by my own example. Iโve watched my parents, for the longest time ever, struggle to get their business up and running. They … Continue reading Is inheriting from your parents a right or a privilege?
