If you are a mother, do you assume yourself beautiful?

What makes you beautiful as a Mother? I am not talking about your beauty from any other's perspective. I am asking what your heart thinks about it. Let's take examples of mothers you know personally. What makes them so amazing? Is their beauty about how they physically look OR how they look at their kids? You might not assume yourself graceful but fact is You Are. Sometimes we tend to ignore what little things we do everyday that make big changes in life. We, mothers, often consider ourselves insignificant because we always look upon our failures. But believe me, mothers are running this whole universe. 
No language can express the power, the beauty and the majesty of a mother's love..
A mother is beautiful when she confronts her baby in middle of night..
She is beautiful when she reads for her kids even being badly tired..
She is even beautiful when she kissed scrapped knees..
Great is how she loves her kids unconditionally..
Wonder is how she lifts them up and stand by them..
Magic is how she can understand unspoken words..
Mothers are beautiful because of their beautiful acts..
When she cleans, cooks and care for family selflessly..
When she listens to crying babies without getting frustrated..
When she eats leftover food of her baby's plate without feeling low..   
When she stays up late in night to make sure kids can go school timely next morning..
When she keeps on ignoring doctor visit for herself whereas a single cut on her kid's hand can make her cry..
And Beautiful mothers can be found every where..
They are like silent saints staying with us at home..
They are soldiers working to make our world more beautiful place..
They are social workers fighting for the rights of their kids..
They work hard to protect families around them even if they don't have their own kids and families..
So mothers, next time when you look into the mirror, notice few things instead of dark circles and not-so-fair face. Instead of wrinkles, see the experience you gain with time. Instead of noticing extra kilos, observe the strength you have now. Instead of inspecting dark circles under your eyes, think about the immense love your kids give you. Instead of spotting burned hands and callused feet, feel happy that you can work harder. And instead of seeing your failures, see how much you are blessed. We all may not see this inner beauty in ourselves and feel inadequate, so from now onward whenever you see any mother passing near to you, smile.. Even go to her and talk about her kids and family. Ask how she is doing health wise. When you see a new mother rocking her baby, give her the encouragement she needs. When you note a mother handling her tricky toddler, go offer help. Because a little love goes long way.. Every day mothers are doing beautiful things around the world. So from this Mother's day celebrate a Mother's true beauty and her heroism every day..
Ritualize Every day as Mother's day..

My 'Invisible' Accomplishments #DecadeHop #RRxMM

As we entered 2020, through this post I am trying to contemplate the coolest, most daring, and most significant feats of my life during the last decade. Now the more I regress my memory, the more I feel there are two types of achievements or accomplishments that I can ponder upon; Visible and Invisible. Visible ones are those that I can count on my finger like a parrot and others can nod also. I got specs on, married to a not-so-romantic man, produced a baby, started writing and added good 17 kgs in my body volume (I was 50 in 2011). However, there are many invisible accomplishments too that either I know silently or very few can assert. From 2011 to 2019, Who am I now From a coy soul to now an outspoken woman, the trek was not easy. I achieved it. From being a no-makeup girl to now a lipstick swatches observer, the transition was tough. But it happened. And from being a sweet hater to now a sweet lover, the change was mysterious yet occurred. And now I can die for Gulab Jamuns....

Cheap vs.Expensive Bottled Water-The Cost of What is Free & Essential

If I ask you when you last bought packaged drinking water last, I am sure you would not count it from long ago. Obviously, because gone are the days when we used to count water as a free goodie from nature for all of us. We now buy this essential for life thing in various amount as per our needs.  Be it a shopping mall or an amusement park, hospital or restaurant, travel time or even at home we pay for our drinking water. During Durgapuja festival I had to buy drinking water from many places which made me notice how the price of the same drinking water changes from one shop to another. Buying a one-liter bottle of a reliable brand from a general store cost me Rs. 20, while the same brand bottle of an equal amount of water filled inside a pizza hut store cost me RS. 50 on the same day. The last bottle that I had bought was left in the car parked outside and I felt thirsty again while waiting for my ordered pizza. This made me ask for water at the cash counter where the person o...

Vibhu and Web Series - Gullak is a cheering story

After watching Panchayat , I was again on a hunt for another web series that Vibhu (my 7-year-old boy) can also enjoy. Luckily I found one. It was again a neat and uncomplicated one. No abusive language, no inappropriate talks, and full of comedy, it was really fun to watch " Gullak " with Vibhu. Set in a small town in North India, this web series is about a middle-class Mishra family and their day-to-day struggles. Being a 90s kid, I have seen the craze for clay piggy banks, typically called Gullak. Be it any fair or festival, buying a clay piggy bank was a custom in families of North India (UP) during the early 90s. The Series is named Gullak as in the show, a clay piggy bank, is the narrator of the plot. The Mishra family includes a giving husband, Santosh Mishra; a sarcastically speaking wife, Shanti Mishra; and their two sons. Then there are nagging neighbors, demanding relatives, everyday life struggles, and lots of humor with all. The performance by everyone in the ca...
