Going The Distance In My Country
The Discover Prompt word of the day is “distance”. There’s so much to write on distance. Here are the two facts you need to know about me before you read this blog – I hail from India. I’ve lived in India my whole life. Moved cities within the country but never really lived outside the…
Life in Quarantine
Discover prompt word for the day is “slow”. Couldn’t find a better place to vent about everything going on right now than here. The weirdest thing about life right now is that staying at home is pretty hectic – with all the cleaning, cooking, working from home but it’s also extremely slow. It’s like the…

Just Sister Things
Discover prompt word of the day is ‘bite’. You know the worst thing about being the younger sibling? It’s how your older sibling is so successful in fooling you when you are kids.

Divine Orchestra
I’m late on this one but Discover Prompt “orchestrate” totally threw me. Here is my take on it. I’ve been an atheist for the last few years because none of the religions strike a chord with me. But I do believe that there is a divine power out there that is unknown that in some…
Looking for something to believe in
Discover prompt for the day is “pairs” and I’ve had such crazy thoughts about what to write. I want to write about something happy but I think this post is going to be introspective. Do you believe in love? Do you believe that there is someone out there for everyone? Do you believe in soulmates?…
