Growing up too fast!

 Helllloooo!!
How have you folks been?
I've had a few errands pending since months literally, that got done. pretty relieved. *Phew*
I've been wondering, my babies have grown up so much, my older one pretty much manages most of her chores herself now, they do grow up so fast. Only you realize it later.

 I remember when she was born, I was so scared, I felt like this is A HUGE responsibility.  Another human being has been brought on earth who is totally dependent on me! How am I going to take care of her. And mind you, I knew most of the 'chores' that babies require to get done because I had nephews and nieces before I got married; chores like changing diapers, putting them to sleep, feeding them, massages etc etc. I wasn't one bit concerned of physical work. I was going bonkers because I thought the world is cruel and I will be taking care of a new human being.


Fast forward to now she's almost 5, VERY strong headed, a tiny heart and a brain FULL of questions. I swear I answer almost 926346 questions everyday. Honestly sometimes it is annoying :p


Don't label me as a bad mum, I have my ups and downs.


Life is full of energy and happy chaos. Everyday brings new challenges with itself, but it doesn't only bring challenges;  it kindles new smiles and new hopes everyday!

Being a parent is a blessing!
ThankGod x infinity.

Technology and Morals

 Hi Ya'll.

While technology has been deeply rooted in our daily lives now, certainly it clashes with ethics and morals in some spaces. Our daily routines have been so accustomed to the use of latest gadgets and apps that we’ve become somewhat slaves to it. Who remembers using landlines anymore? We have mobiles and they’re so much better! 

We find these devices a better, faster way to get anything done but we’re also damaging so many things in the process. Condolences are paid on phones and we lost the feel of hugging someone who needed it the most. Your best friend had a baby, you video-called instead of actually visiting, couriered the gifts along; the baby became familiar with you as “The aunt who comes on my phone and sends me parcels”. Oh and food is eaten only AFTER you’ve taken a few good pictures to be posted on social media.

The granny who longed to see you and talk to you is now hopelessly watching you staying busy in your tab sitting right beside her, as if you weren’t even there. The education suddenly flipped towards online meetings and assignments. The little children lost interest because they wished to sit beside their friends and learn together. 

Certain someone wants to keep a specific news to themselves, their news spirals like a wild fire because someone else posted and now social media is full of that one news. Your next door neighbor is extremely sick, you haven’t visited them in person since ages, so you find out about their illness through their social accounts rather than through going to their place.

Being rude to strangers was never even thought of in olden time, now we find everyone on the internet fighting with each other. Perseverance and patience is drained down the hole and everyone debates over who is right and who is not.

We lost the human touch as we dived deep into technology. It will not be wrong to say, we grew closer to technology and farther from our dear ones. We’re busy capturing photos of rare moments instead of truly treasuring them. We are too busy being ‘tech-savvy’ that we lose the real essence of an instance.

I truly feel if in some ways, technology is the best solution to a lot of issues, we’re somewhat downgrading our ‘human-ness’ due to it. 

We need to breathe and live more then being ‘techy’.

Conquer Hearts

 

Oh darling, don't be ready,
For serving trays delicious,
To people who are vicious,
For trolley full of eatery,
For people to munch on,
For table of exotics,
For ones who don't even care,
But darling please be ready,
To shove their opinions down their throats,
To let them know,
Their validations,
Aren't your necessity,
To punch a face when they make one,
Over how strong you are,
But,
Be ready my super human,
To achieve greater,
To believe better,
To know far more,
Then any of us do,
To stand taller,
To excel farther,
To top forward,
To be strong,
To be ambitious,
To be courageous,
To ALWAYS do the right thing,
No matter how down it feels,
To standup for yourself,
And walk over others' weight over you.
May you conquer hearts,
Rather then conquering the houses.
Amen.

Untitled Babble

 Heeeelllllooooo Thereeeee!

Lol yes, I abandoned this baby because I got real human babies to take care of!

Yup I became a mama bear to two beautiful souls, for whom I could do anything at all.

Life is different, I am a completely different person now. I didn't quite know that. I have changed, no, more like I have evolved into a completely different being. I am more of a kickass now. ;)

I didn't realize that. That after the birth of my babies, I'd meet someone completely different, and that will be me, A Whole New Me.

My older one is turning 5 in a few months and her younger brother 2. Oh how over whelming it still is to think I have tiny humans of my own who depend upon me for everything.

Sometimes no me time and only their time stresses the hell out of me. I have now promised myself, no matter what I will be making a tiny bit of PRODUCTIVE time for myself too. The reason this 'productive' is such big fat word is because I have spent this me-time doing absolute-unavailing and purposeless activities.

For now I have just two things in mind:

* Write more on my blog/Facebook blog (yep I have one called advents of mommyhood, and I am shamelessly promoting it here.)

*Exercise. Yep. Gotta loose the tummy tyre. can't blame two cesareans anymore because they happened long ago. :p
