On this beautiful day of the Nativity of Mother Mary , I experienced the simple joy of giving. This morning, I called the society security guard and handed over some unused groceries and clothes. The smile on his face is something I will cherish for life. His words touched me“This will be sufficient for many months, and my wife and daughter will be extremely happy.” In that simple moment, I felt an immense sense of gratitude to God for his blessings.

Today also reminded me of my late maternal uncle, whose birthday falls on this day. He was one of the closest people in my life , a man who lived with the belief of giving. His presence is missed dearly, but I am sure he is smiling from above seeing that his values continue to live on in me in my own little way. The joy of giving felt deeper today as it beautifully coincided with the birthday...
I have never been someone who believed in Valentine's Day.

Long back I decided that I never wanted to celebrate 14th February, and somehow, it aligned exactly that way. A surprise from my love was supposed to arrive on the evening of 14th February. Due to some issue, it got delayed. And instead of the evening, it arrived at 15th midnight. The door ...
The moment you walked in, The spark in your eyes, The expression when I fed you food, The way you shown me care the entire time, To our favourite song which played coincidentally in the nearby restaurant while we were walking on the streets. The feeling of belonginess. Then the painful time of finally giving a hug and saying goodbye. Those 2 hours meet was worth the wait of 2 long years. To this special friend and person in my life. Hope we stay the same always and forever. Nothing less, Nothing more. Just the same "us". #13Apr23
