From Weakness to Strength
I’ve had a weird couple of weeks, which doesn’t get old because most of my weeks are weird. There’s a lot going on upstairs – in the mushy room. Two weeks ago, I’d mentioned understanding & acknowledging my weaknesses in order to be able to love myself completely. Today, I’ve been thinking about them a…

Gaining Wisdom
I’ve been asking myself all week how I would feel to be exactly a year away from 35. I’m here now and don’t feel any different than I did yesterday. Looking back through the years that have passed though, I can see quite the difference. I’d made a habit of writing in my journal every…

A Love Letter To Me
I’ve started reading this book, it’s more of a working on myself kinda book. And today I was instructed to write a love letter to myself. One that highlighted and acknowledged the parts of me that have done well and made it through the struggles. I’ve made multiple errors along the way, with and to…

Once in an Everyday
My kids, each of them, individually, are my proudest moments in all of the years I’ve lived. They are somehow my pain points too. Even considering today and the kind of week I’ve had, I would never want to have it any other way. I cannot imagine not being mom to even one of them.…

Measuring Happiness
Today was meant to be my cheat day. Thought I’d skip the weekly post and just be. I couldn’t make time to write something during the week. It was a busy week. Festivities do that to us don’t they. Celebrating with friends & family, getting involved in the hustling & bustling of cooking and cleaning…

Being gifted a win!
I needed a win! By mid-day yesterday, my eyeliner was only visible over the lid of one eye. And the other resembled a panda’s. My day started at 5:30 am. No one needed to be up that early in my home so I was sure I was going to completely lose it some time during…

Staying Afloat
I was guided recently to envisioning parenting, at any stage of life, to falling in a pool of water. When our child is playing by the side of the pool or learning how to swim and we’re standing by watching them, and they slip and fall in, what happens to us? How do we respond?…

On Friendships
I’d like to dedicate this post to all my friends out there – the real ones, who’ve seen me through the struggles and decided to stick on. August being the month we celebrate friends, I thought it appropriate to travel a little into my journey with friendships – past & present. When I was a…

Being Woman
I read somewhere recently that women are the main culprits at bringing down another woman. Why do we do this while we’re each on our own empowerment journey? I see the truth in that first statement as it’s something that’s happening all around me. This is me trying to understand why this happens so often…

Running Forever
I hate the thought of marathons. I honestly can’t imagine how people put themselves through something that intense, for no clear reason, at least to me. Movie marathons though..that’s a whole different ball game! One, which after becoming a mom has also ceased to hold the level of excitement it used to. It burns me…
