What I Need To Learn From My 1 Year Old Son

You can only apprehend the true meaning of love when you experience motherhood. Moreover, your highest level of endurance can only be tested when you deliver your baby. This is exactly what happened to me!

Every single day I am reliving my childhood doing silly things just to see my son laugh. And my Little master make everyone smile and laugh around him. I Guess nobody can be as carefree and happy as babies are!

Each one of us must have thought to themselves the key to be happier and empower ways to be successful in life.

The Way He Greets People

Whenever he looks around and observe someone looking at him he passes a smile. And then the other person tend to have a bright smile on their face.


He Is A Drama Master

When he wants something he becomes adamant to get it under any circumstances! There are times when there is something that is delicate or can hurt him; so during that time we try to divert his mind and give any other stuff. Initially, he doesn’t want to settle down but then within few minutes he starts enjoying “the new” thing.

I wonder can I learn something from him on how to be happy and be appreciative with what you have?

How He Forgets that…

Once in a while when he is being demanding I have to say No! And then he becomes silent and upset for few minutes and then comes back again in his usual self! He is getting naughtier day by day!

I wish I have the ability to forget and forgive people who upsets me!

His Range Of Changing Moods

Once in a while he gets moody and need my total attention; when he doesn’t get my attention he makes innocent faces towards me! I know how I used to fight with my husband whenever I thought I was not getting enough compassion. Now I have learned the art from my son on how to get attention with “just a look” that can say it all !

Smile Does Increase Your Face Value

The research suggests, on an average baby smiles more than 400 times a day. Woohoo!

No wonder why babies have lovely looks and the charming skin! So now you don’t need any beauty enhancement treatments just Smile.

How Silly and Little Objects Can Entertain Him

He loves playing with kitchen utensils, brooms and any other household thing. He brings a sense of joy and fun to any item of the house. I have literally stopped bringing toys for him now.  Won’t it be amazing if we find joy in doing little things; instead of running after materialist things.

Do share your observations on how you can actually live happier if you start thinking like a baby! Talk to that little baby inside you.

I myself have experienced various ups and downs in my life; during those times you tend to rummage for someone with whom you can share your insecurities and negativity. Who can be a better person to understand you than your “life partner”?

LOVE COUPLE

Have you discovered someone with whom you can share your darkest side and in return you are quite destined that you won’t be misjudged by your partner. The sad reality of our society is that not many people marry the right person, typically most of the marriages end in “Divorce” You won’t be stunned to see the figures doubling in the next coming years.

Basically, what’s the reason – Why do relationships fail? Do we rush into commitments or we get captivated towards an outer beauty more than inner beauty of the person.

Before you chose to get married with the right person, you need to apprehend the true meaning of “institution of marriage” The main decision lies in choosing the right person who knows how to honor relationships.

Relationships Are Made In Heaven But Are Developed On Earth

God may bless you with a partner that you have dreamed of, but you need to work on the relationship. When you experience struggling times in a relationship you need to accept it as an opportunity to understand your partner and work as a team in the relationship. Each one of us are going through challenging times in our day to day life i.e career struggle or financial problems.

It’s natural to behave differently when you are going through tough times. This is when your partner should realize the outside hindering factors that are disturbing you. If your partner realizes the reason of your depressing state of mind and can be your friend with whom you can talk to; then nothing can be more fulfilling then that!

You need to accept the challenges of life, because this is called “LIVING” And when you have an understanding partner who shares your life in any kind of circumstances then you can surely excel in life.

So now you know how to know whether you have the right person in your life or not.

Honey It’s been a long time when I last wrote a love letter to you. I have written at least 100 love letters to you and you have written just 1 ! You always say you don’t know how to write a love letter and I Say at least say it how much you love me.

Whole Lotta Love duh duh duh!
Where do I begin,,, she has been there for me like no one else has. She is the mother to my child, pink to my black, smile to my frown, white light pointing the way forward in darkness, heaven sent, fire and ice, the tempest, wild beauty, untamed heart, Emilia to my Iago (except that she helps me to become a better man), the eccentric sportsmen, creator of the “piyo”, rebellious anti-romantic, lady for the poor, mama’s girl, the German Sheppard lover, from innocent to naughty, from seductive voice to conservative libertine!

She lift my days and light my nights, yet she can kill you with a smile or with a deft touch, an ocean of incoherent thoughts for me to find my way to her promise land. A promise land in pink and white, where she he is running on green grass making heads turn as an aura passes them by. The love for sea food, newly acquired taste in Guinness and Newcastle ale tells a tale a girl wanting to be much more than her present.

She comes from bright land of wisdom, innocence and peace. She has unknowingly kissed chaos; she did not know what was coming, she was tricked into believing only the good and not the bad. She cried foul but took the punches in her stride, giving her strength to her man. Standing by her man! Casting a spell of purity and magic, protecting him from betrayal and thoughts that are tragic.

She did not realize but she has crossed the chaos, the flooding river, yet she feels lost in her own promise land. Did she really want it to start with? A little tired of waiting for the next big wave, she has started to create her own, ushered in by a born-again man, they come together in the most needful hour, they are the same. She needs to believe in him more, he needs to give her more. She will win her actual promise land, her freedom from confused thoughts and negative vibes! She will triumph over adversity only if she BELIEVES in herself and her old new man!

Don’t Forget!

The first kiss on the Ride back home, to Delhi haat, outside Dayal mansion, Bangkok boat ride, Parikrama parikrama, Paul McCartney rain and clutching of hand to go home and the smile when he came on to sing, the FA cup final, Momo, 9-1 baddy thrashing at amby (felt really good huh!), slippers in -21, O’briens, Mister chef, corono drinking and sleeping, champagne bottle in 5 minutes, loving breezer, the test in bath room and screaming, joshu’s heart beat, Oscar performances (how can I miss), navel revealing rebel to you know who?, rolling stones is a …….. , the window at krasnorminsk, cozy home in 7 days, endless relatives, the poise at lunch with Ukrainians, Goa train ride, guarding you in Jammu, this is where your humor lies, the shouts at Centaur, the naan at Centaur, Amitabh’s story on the drive home, so many stories! Your first Paypal sal! I remember! The new opportunities which you brought in for me. Your hand in my destiny, from Dubai to Kiev.

So remember Wifey, even if I “think” I am the brains of the outfit, you are the soul of the outfit, the guiding light and the destiny of the outfit. If you want me to get Jake, bring Jake to me! Only you can! Just ask God! As I will ask for you to start and achieve your destiny! (I think it is business…)

From Ankhiyon Ke Jharokhon to Whole Lotta Love! Darling your journey has begun! So forget about what’s been, embrace your future, your love, your Joshu, your man! Fall in Love again with me! I still love you after all these years! And even though you don’t think I do! My silly sassy girl – I DO!!! I love you like crazy! There never could be a better moment than THIS ONE!

So in the words of our Bono

“All the promises we make from the cradle to grave, when all I want is you”

The minute the doctor brought him to me and touched his skin against my cheeks the first thing that I said was “I Love You”
One of the signs of pregnancy that every woman face is the “weakness” “tiredness”; especially in the last few months of pregnancy when your baby weight is increasing at a faster pace. Any normal person can understand how challenging the pregnancy can be. But you will find some absolutely unbearable people who have no sense of understanding.

During the time I was pregnant I used to feel weak and tired, not to mention my too much weight gain that made things worse for me (thanks to my bad eating habit).
I came to my home town in the last months of my pregnancy before that I was in “Kiev”. Like everybody else you want to be with your mom in the last months of pregnancy. As I am very close to my mom so I intentionally made a decision of joining mom.
But But But

There were some incidents that shook me…. So today I am going to uncover all

• One day I went to a university where I wanted to fill some forms to enroll myself in some programme. The guy who was distributing the forms was not around.. two chairs were lying there.. so I sat on one chair as I was literally tired waiting for the guy. The guy came and said “ get up” I gave a disgusting look and looked at the other chair kept right next to him.. I stood up anyway – I was amazed to see what I saw afterward. He sat on one chair and put his legs on the other one. (Did I forget to mention I was 9 months pregnant then?)

• I was crossing the main road and it was a green light all of a sudden one speeding car passed by me with the full music on .. I thought to myself was he blind? There was a difference of fraction of seconds otherwise I would have ………….

• Once I was standing in a queue ..it was a long long queue but nobody proposed to help me.

• I was in Mc donalds waiting for my husband for over half n hour, it was all full but nobody bothered to offer me a seat to sit down..

• And this incident was after “my son” “joshu” was born. He was having a fever so I took him to the nearest hospital, I was all alone at home so couldn’t take him in a car as he can’t sit on his own. So I took a riki; reached the hospital quite comfortably but when I came out of the hospital it was raining like “cats and dogs”. I was not having an umbrella with me as I didn’t expect the weather to be like that. So I was struggling to cover joshu with whatever I could. After waiting for some time I got a rikshaw the minute I sat on it he saw some lady and asked her where are you going. She said “xyz” place the rikshaw guy looked at me and asked me to get down because he got the passenger who could give him more money… While my house was quite near to the hospital. I couldn’t believe that he actually was asking me to get down seeing my son drenched badly in rain.. I controlled myself though I was on the brink of breaking down..

On the other hand when I was out of India wherever I went I got a special treatment in every possible way; from kids to old people everybody helped me, gave me a way and even went out of the way to do anything possible to offer me comfort.
I feel sad to say if it was not for my parents I wouldn’t have chosen “Delhi” to spend my “pregnancy period” .
