Thankyou Cee for all these interesting questions .. Here are my answers -
1) What made you smile today?
My cup of coffee! It’s just early in the day here and my pick-me-up has had its effect ! I get my coffee powder couriered all the way from India as I’m truly addicted to this blend and nothing ever matches up to it. I dislike instant mixes.
2) Have any hidden talents?
I am very crafty. I keep making things out of waste.. tissue rolls, cloth bags , old bottles.. Waste – to – Best ! Recycle and proud of it :)
3) Are you usually late, early, or right on time?
I have to admit that I’m usually late ! I don’t estimate time well and my husband always does.. so he’s usually the one telling me I’m going to be late while I shamelessly argue.. only to be proved wrong ! I hope I change this sooner than later.
4) What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
I believe , truly living is when you allow all the sounds, senses, emotions around to penetrate you. In our day-to-day life we keep fretting about issues and in our attempt to find a solution,we stonewall ourselves from all that is happening around us. I worry too much .. and earlier I used to do it for everyone.. that left we very little time to observe what was happening around me. This left big voids in my memory of those time periods. It took someone strong to tell me to wake up and look around .. and I’m lucky that I married that person. I’m still a cribby bitch sometimes and he knows it ;)
Great answers to the questions Deepti! I've been in periods of worry like you mention and those days I can't even remember. It's so nice to be able to see and appreciate all that life has to offer!!
ReplyDeleteYup Cathy, I really regret missing those moments of which others have great memories .. makes me wonder how could I be so mentally absent from the moment... but well.. one always learns I guess :) And its beneficial to be forgetful sometimes ;)
DeleteSometimes life can be overwhelming and it's very difficult to get your head up above it all so you can really see. How lucky for you to have someone in your life to help you see!
ReplyDeleteYes, I am very lucky :) Just need to be reminded sometimes ..
