100th Blog Post – Random facts…

About me 😌. If WordPress is counting right, this should be my 100th post. It's a little unbelievable that I have shown up here about 100 times. It's true some of those have been reposts (if that's how WordPress counts) but I thought I could share a little about me. I have seen this trend …

Biz and Tech Week : Let it marinate.

Living in a world of instant gratification has probably worn out our muscle of patience. We've conveniently forgotten that good things take time and have the idea that if something doesn't pick we should abandon it. Half baked plans and half hearted attempts. I think this is what keeps us rotating around then idea of …

Biz and Tech Week : It takes a village…

To do so many things, including promoting and growing your business. So - welcome to your marketplace. If you are producing something, unless it's totally private and for your personal enjoyment, you hope there will be consumers on the other end of it. I hope that description just lights the idea of social media in …

How to finish well

Bringing this one out of the archives for today😅😅. This was my third post on the blog, a whole year and a half ago. But I think it holds some truth for the present. For a while in this season (the faith-beating season from about one post back) I have believed deeply that it is …

To the Mother still waiting to mother.

I have no idea what your day to day looks like. Or more specifically what a day like today, where every space you glance at is awash with the reminder that you are not there yet. But I applaud the strength - with which you face it all. Fielding unbelievably heartless questions year after year …

What the Wait feels like!

A thousand flaming hot-coals heaped on your head, with your mouth gagged and your stomach twisting to a load of tiny little stabs. And absolutely no respite in sight. That's grim. Maybe it's more like a glitch in your story. You think you are moving forward then once the glitching stops, you find you have …

An Introvert’s Strange Guide to Making Friends

Well certainly this is not a movie. At least I don't think it is. But if there is one by that title please let me know so that I can check it out. It's just a glimpse into my life. One of my unspoken resolutions for this year is to make new friends. In particular …

I signed up for a group writing challenge…

Have you watched 'Raya and the Last Dragon' yet? There's that scene where Sisu confesses how she didn't really do much. And she gave that classic allusion; the dreaded group assignment where there is usually someone who doesn't pull their weight but still gets all the credit. I laughed at that. I've been the victim …

5 things I learnt…or remembered from being offline.

One of my favourite scenes in The 100 Season 1, because I'm yet to go beyond Season 2, is when the ship lands on Earth and Octavia is offered the first step on earth. She steps out and doesn't go out in flames and she screams, 'We are back, b*****es' and then Radioactive by Imagine …

Digital Detox!

Who is? Well I am. For about three weeks. Maybe more, hopefully less. But I do know that a digital detox is good every once in a while. I was off social media about this time last year too. And I thought maybe I will push it to the blog too. Just to get my …
