Love is the most looked forward emotion on this mo Love is the most looked forward emotion on this mortal planet, yet complex and mysterious. Mysterious like the morning fog when you can hardly see or comprehend anything until the day proceeds. Even the most selfish and evil person looks forward to this emotion from others. But the moment when we say love, every person has his way of defining it. Does Love have a name? If yes, are we not limiting it within a boundary? If you ask me, What is Love? It is the journey of a meandering river that sways with the rhythm of life rendering new dimensions as well as new meaning in every phase.
.
For me, the meaning of this divine emotion has evolved over the years. It’s more than happiness, to love and be loved.
.
I still remember when I was a child, I loved dancing and reading books most, my first love you can say. When I grew up, I was a seeker for love from a companion, love was friendship then. With marriage, I unveiled another shade of love both physical as well as emotional. Love earlier was desire now it was acceptance, co-existence and compatibility. 
Marriage helped me to dive deep into the philosophy of life and unveil various hues of love.
As I moved further in life, love for me was longing and hope for motherhood.
.
With Motherhood, LOVE became nurture, care and a learning curve.

Grandparents share a special bond with their grand Grandparents share a special bond with their grandchildren. The moment they arrive at our place, my twinnies hover around them. They want to do all their activities with them.

.Seeing his passion for aeroplanes and cars this plane was made out of packaging paper box that had our winter thermals. This paper packet was lucky enough to get a makeover rather making it's way to the bin.

A mother who wanted to treasure this gift, as well as the sheer happiness of her son, captured it forever.

Change is the only constant. Last year, we all wit Change is the only constant. Last year, we all witnessed a sea change in the way we think, live and introspect. A year that taught us gratitude and the importance of small moments of happiness that life renders us.
.
.The year 2020 has been devastating in many ways but most of us saw only the darker side of it. Missing all the life lessons that it taught us silently. Undoubtedly, a catastrophic year with millions of people being dead around the globe, economy spiralling down, jobs lost, natural calamities and the list goes on.
Nature was in it’s” Tandava Swaroop” and had come to warn man of his follies that he has been doing for ages.
With all devastations around us, this year also helped us in pushing our boundaries. Polishing us to shine more, to reflect more and to introspect more.
There were damages, uncertainty, fear and anxiety everywhere but the silver streak of hope kept things alive.
One who chanted the mantra “This, too shall pass” and moved on with life emerged as the winner. Going with the flow and facing the storm upfront was what was needed most this year.
Adversity is a boon in disguise. The curtailed freedom, restrictions, new normal taught us many things that a good or a normal year never would have taught us.
The 5 life lessons that this pandemic year 2020 taught us has left an indelible mark in our lives. It has brought a change in our overall thought process.

5 Life Lessons that the year 2020 taught us

1.Embrace the uncertainty with a smile

For me, the year started smoothly with new hopes and aspirations. Right in the first month, there was a change in our lives as we had to shift to another house in the cold up here in North India. I was highly irritated with no help around, twin toddlers and schools being open it was nothing less than Herculean task. Several days passed in agitation, anger and irritation that took away my peace of mind but then I realized everything can’t be planned earlier. Life always throws uncertainties but how we navigate is the key to sustain.

My first post of 2021. I was off from the Insta fo My first post of 2021. I was off from the Insta for few days. Was on a detox mode you can say. 
.
.But, want to share an interesting thing that I noticed a couple of days back while observing my kids.
.
.The key to happiness is to be in your natural elements. Kids never bother how they are being judged. Their behaviour is pure and raw.

So be pure and raw, the world might judge you but at the end, you will be a happy person.

The year 2020 has been harsh on so many, rendering The year 2020 has been harsh on so many, rendering fear, anxiety and uncertainty. Overall, a catastrophic year but few still managed to earn a fortune out of it. It has pushed so many to dream big, to do different and to fight back. As per Industry statistics, from having a handful of tech companies to dozens and now thousands of innovative new ventures, India’s startup ecosystem grew immensely in the past decade. From 29k startups in 2014 to a whopping number of 55k startups by the end of 2020.
Though dreadful, somehow this year has pushed me into several new fields apart from blogging that I had never imagined earlier. “Every dark cloud has a silver lining “, cliché quote but true. A couple of months back, I had faced a life-changing situation when my husband faced the threat of losing his job, being the sole bread earner, the very thought gave us sleepless nights. We were completely lost as to where to begin with, how to sustain life, education of two growing kids, ageing parents and an endless list of responsibilities that dangled from our shoulders.
Pandemic further had completely made situation from bad to worse, declining job opportunities, the shrinking economy made everything looked murkier. We were clueless as what to do next.
After a two year stint in Investment Banking, I had a long gap but had always managed to do something productive that helped me to earn my own pocket money. But, running a household is a different story altogether.
The ongoing pandemic had played foul restricting our movements and had curtailed our freedom in many ways. When the real world started shrinking, the horizon of the virtual world widened and looked rosier. Being a blogger, I was well aware of the power of Social media and how it has changed the fortunes of several helping them to earn name, fame and money.
