Clothes Pins and Flowers

How you hold up the wet clothes to dry dear clothes pins, I've held myself up and hung myself dry, from soaking ,dripping wet tears to overcoming fears and getting out the sadness and grief, to come out Dry, Fresh, Clean, Clear, only to get wet again and to be hung to dry again... To then be able to smell my true fragrance..Poorva11th Jan 2025

And when your hair also feels all scattered like you- All over the place... Giving myself Space to stay Scattered and not comb my hair and stay with my Scattered thoughts and not comb them down..

Musical 24 hours.. What Magic uff

Such serenity and calm watching this, and the stark contrast watching your parents flay oy sway or become shaky.. We as their children doing everything to not want to see them fall, or touch the ground..It's the toughest phase to watch them reach their Autumn, and...

Being Grateful

Expressing GratitudeThis morning, I find myself waking up appreciative of the simple yet profound things in life: the ability to breathe, the health and functionality of my body, the presence of my daughter, and the continued companionship of my mother, who remains with us in her physical form.

Being Fearful

Today is day 4 of my otherwise always active, never caught doing nothing mom, feeling under the weather, having fever, she's 73,.

Being Moonlit

Allowed myself to experience this night  at Zapurza, an art museum in a village called Kudje next to Pune. Was part of a beautiful full moon night led by Varun of Taal inc and Manisha of Oneek. To be one with the moon, to dance to the drums, and totally let go, not be seen and yet to see myself completely was a profound experience.. To surrender to the moon, and to let it soak me up like a thirsty...
