Surviving suberbs
The thing I miss the most about South Delhi is
living close to friends and the amount of hours we would spend in Barista,
sipping lattes and contemplating the finer things in life. Spending countless
hours talking about finer things in life was always incredibly
therapeutic for this wandering heart of mine and off late I've been missing SDA like crazy.
The weather is pleasant today. And I am
trying to give Gurgaon a fair chance; I thought very carefully before deciding
to move here, but there is no denying that I am struggling immensely to accept
this place.For now, I am just trying my hardest to live in the moment, take
note of the fragmented beauty each new day holds and keep them tucked safely in
my pocket for the harder days.There was a reason I came...
I know that my ability to give all of my
heart to my job and not emotionally exhaust myself comes with having a happy
balance of life outside of work. And I've been putting forth a more conscious
effort on walking Zed in the evening, exploring new shops and restaurants in my
neighborhood. Life in suburb is getting a little easier. :)
On that note, let me tell you I have
constant cravings for incredibly domesticated desires now. I have the ability
to cook good meals, sew cushion cover and have potted plants and flowers.
Sharing a snapshot.

Being NT
It’s one of those days when I remain indifferently
unimpressed, and completely dissatisfied. What do I expect? It seems like I
have started to chase something outwardly that could only be found within. It
seems like I have forgotten to be observant and accepting like I first was upon
arriving in Delhi 11 years ago. Something has definitely changed and it would be
naive for me to blame my environment instead of looking inwards and trying to
understand the issue. Or perhaps I should just LIVE. Because in the end it’s up
to me to create my own piece of paradise within. It’s never lost, only
obscured.

From Jaggery Village (Gurgaon)....
I was 25 when I started this blog. I am 32 now.
Four years ago, I was going through a difficult time, fighting illness that almost took my life...feeling incredibly isolated from the world that I created for myself.Now? Currently, living in Gurgaon.With my dog, Zed and back in business. I can say I am finally at a place where I am enjoying my life again(touch-wood).
It's weird thinking of how much has changed in the last few years. It's hard.This blog has seen me through my bitchiest self, worst breakup, happy ramblings, grief and lots more. Probably if I had more time, I would have a more substantial blog with more dynamic posts but I'm happy as it is.
I want to thank all the people who have helped and supported me throughout the years I have been rattling on, and those who are continually in my life day by day.
There are a few things up my sleeve! But that will happen in a few weeks hopefully.
Check out Zed's pic for now.
