Thank you 2017 
For all the lessons and realisations
Some of which I had forgotten earlier 
Thanks for the strong reminders this year 
For removing the toxic people from my life
It’s so important to have
Real
Kind
Supportive and 
Positive people around you 
For you- not to doubt yourself
Every waking hour
Thank you
For gifting me with an empty slate
Just about when I needed it the most
Thank you 2017
For helping me restore my faith in life 
And myself
It’s been good
For the most part
Actually not so much in the beginning 
Thank you for ending it right for me
Life feels like 
A path of roses

But luckily the thorns don’t prick me as much now.

I Hate My Siblings

They are always on my nerves. My brother trying his wrestling moves on me without my consent, from the choke-slams to the face busters, I have been at the receiving end of everything by this little Hulk Hogan (or so he thinks he is). He's eleven, short and slender; strong, nonetheless. I am almost always on the verge of either crying or yelling at him with such an intensity that it's a miracle I can even speak after. When he makes a mistake, I try to shower him with 'Pria's Eight-fold Path' to wherever it is that I am heading. His response is always positively mimicking me and disappearing into thin air after. I wish I had that superpower. So while we are on the topic of hating siblings, let me tell you about my youngest sister. Hold on a second, let me grab the list (which makes for a book honestly)of the times when she has justified me calling her an imp. From ruining my gifted tops to losing my favorite book to eating my exquisite Belgian chocolates which I ...

Hi there!

Welcome! You have come to my happy place. 💗 This has been a long time coming. I am not claiming to be an exceptional writer here but that does not change my immense love for writing. I have had an on/off relationship with it though. I gave it up periodically for more important things at the time; or so I thought. Only now have I fully realized nothing, I repeat, nothing is more important than doing things that make you, you. You don't have to be a pro at it or compete with anyone else as long as it feeds your soul and makes you happy. You don't have to feel stupid doing what you like because honestly everyone has their secret vices. Sorry, I digress. You'll find me deviating from what I am writing in pieces like these more often than not because that is how my brain functions. I have the attention span of a goldfish. Anyhoo, back to my relationship with writing. The 'off-times' have been meh but the phases in which I chose to write made me feel like m...
