Defining Being

As you may know me.... I try to pen my feelings, with more honesty than with language and grammar. While reading the posts below you may experience what compelled me to write these.
While I was thinking of giving a name to my Blog; this came to me; "Nuances of Being"
Being "Me" is the best that I am at and hope that will show in the posts below

And Thanks for reading

A Milestone


I know it is a milestone, but then there will be more milestones and I will not miss those, I promise.

That was me 25 years ago, I was in college and I had my exams so I could not travel back home. Once I am done with college, no more exams so no reason for me to be not there; no power to stop me from being there.

But here we stand, 25 years later, another milestone and this time a power bigger than all of us stopping me from being there. But, like last one, I am there in spirit, right next to you singing, smiling, dancing, and thanking God for this day.

This day 50 years ago when two of you got married.

HAPPY GOLDEN JUBILEE 
Ma and Papa.

I am sure a lot changed in these 50 years. The world around you is not the same. From the little house in Amritsar to something is Harsar (where the awesomeness was born 😊) to Amritsar again and then Jammu and Udhampur and Jammu and Chandigarh and then Mohali. I am sure this must have been quite a journey. And I am thankful for you for holding my hand in a lot part of that journey and making me capable of what ever I am today.

50 years, so many places, so many seasons, so many situations the one thing that I have not seen change is your love for each other including the fights you pick with each other frequently😊. Anyone can see the mutual love and care that you embody even during your complaining moments. 



I will not add too many words here as words mean nothing compared to the fact that 50 years of togetherness is an amazing feat. A feat that certainly calls to be celebrated. A feat that is worth learning from and following for all. 

Although for a formal celebration in the worldly way, we will have to wait till the travel restrictions are lifted and planet becomes safe again for people. But for a real celebration that blooms in the heart and make one’s eyes shine; That has already started in my heart.
Celebrating the love, Celebrating the fights, Celebrating the caring, Celebrating the guidance, Celebrating the freedom, celebrating togetherness, Celebrating joy, Celebrating us all as an awesome family and that starts with you.

Happy 50th Anniversary Ma and Papa.





I Missed being there on 25th and now missing to be there on 50th but will be there on the 75th; I promise.
