The eternal question that life asks...

-
Very often I get into the situations where I have this eternal question in front of me- to 'hold on' or to 'let go'? And most of the times, I don't have the answer...!

Festivals

-
Festivals exist to bring people closer. They're not about "me time"; they're built around rituals and traditions that remind us to connect. Every festival has its own unique cadence and expression. Navratri is celebrated twice a year, Diwali once, and Mother’s and Father’s Day annually. We still look forward to them and celebrate in whatever way we can. We don’t wait for a day or moment when we “naturally” feel like celebrating Diwali. Regardless of our mood or circumstances, we show up on the date Diwali is.

That's how our beliefs evolve, and we humans evolve.

So, the very first time you wear spects, there is an 'ackward feeling'. For me, the definition of ackwardness was hilarious, confusing and 'thoughtful' questions :P  I'll give you some examples, '' Is it normal for your eyelashes to touch the glass?'', ''How do you see things that are above or below your frame?'' 2. Well, there's more to it.. The very first week of wearing spects is all about adjustment - for you, and for the people around (seeing a new 'you'). But for me, not many people were able to notice my new look as they assumed I have always been wearing the spects. :O 3. Then comes a stage when you are finding your "comfort time'' with glasses. You don't know if you can see better with glasses on, or g...
