Two weeks with Fever, Cold and Cough
I have made a promise to myself that this blog will have subjects regularly.
But last two weeks I couldn’t stick to it. Not because I was lazy and finding
excuses not to write. But a bad fever, cold and cough.
I just found out that a viral fever can be this
worse. I couldn’t get up from my bed. Forget about sitting in front of a screen
and think about a topic and write about it.
Two weeks before Adi came home with a fever. Temperature
was very high that we took him to hospital on the same day. Viral fever, nothing
else. He will be all right within two days. Doctor was right. His fever went
off within two days. But I got one.
I couldn’t getup from the bed and needed two blankets
to sleep. This lasted for three days. And that was not just. I couldn’t do anything
other than lying down in the bed for complete two weeks. It took only Paracetamol
tablets to reduce the temperature, but it took two complete weeks for me to
come back to normal life routines.
Thank God I recovered soon. 😊

Cat and The Butterfly
Looking through the window I could see
the cat walking towards the children’s play area. A butterfly is trying to sit
on the overgrown bushes, due to the rain we are getting for last few days. Cat
has set his eyes on the butterfly just like me. I am enjoying that multicolored designs
on its fire yellow wings while the cat is trying to catch that little beauty,
or he might want to just play with it. After all the cat doesn’t realize its children’s
play area.
Cat and The Butterfly |
While looking at the cat, trying to do
jumping jacks with the butterfly all I am thinking is to write about it. So, I took
my notepad and sat near the window, and started writing. Suddenly I hear a
voice behind me “Amma, what are you drawing?”. It’s Adi.
I Ignored him.
He came near to me, and asked again “Amma,
what are you drawing?”
“I am not drawing”. I replied. My
answer has shaped another question for him. “Then?”.
He came near to me, looked at the notepad
and with an exclamation in his eyes said “Oh! You are writing”. Question is not
over yet. “What are you writing?”
“is it Adi-tya, Adi-tya, Adi-tya?”
“is it Aditya?”
He is trying to read the words which I
have written. Ignoring him again I tried to continue my writing.
“Amma, can you stop writing, let me
read whatever you have written”.
He took the notepad from me and went away
with his own style of reading. A five-year old’s reading.
There ends my story about the cat and
beautiful butterfly.

Family Time
Oceans Kiss |
It’s sometimes
hard to put in Words,
Just What I
have to say.
It feels so
good
Family is so
special
Family time is
a bond,
This is like so
strong.
Gone to the
beach with family,
And play with
some mud and water.
Waves come
splashing over our feet
And away it
goes as we stand still.
Time spend together
Is worth every
second.
Look up to the
sky
See then sun
shining at you.
Build the sandcastle
For the water
to sweep it away.
Its so fun to
play
Together in the
shining sun.
What words,
what phrases,
Are at our hands
for use!
Family teaches
us values so real
Family teaches
us to share
It teaches us
to care
They are the
beat of my heart
The pulse in my
veins.
I love my
Family.

One More Time
Couple of days before I was going
through this old song. It’s a Malayalam song. I am not translating this to English.
I will never be able to do that.
No Malayalee can forget this song.

Happy Father's Day !
Happy Father’s
Day to all the father’s out there who love their children unconditionally.
A very special Father’s Day to the two
darling Father’s at my home.
My very own Acha who lived all his
life and still living for his two darling daughters. He did his best to give us
good education and grow with values in life. We might not express the love we have
but both me and my sister loves him and respect him always. My mom has always been
in his side to raise as we are today. If
we have any success in our life its all because of them. It might not require a
special day to remember and appreciate them but at least today we can go ahead
and tell that how much we love them.
And, the other one in my family is Adi’s
sweetheart Appa who lives entirely for him. He could do anything to keep Adi Happy. With
him BS is always a different person, the most caring, patient loving Dad ever.
I didn’t think about Father’s Day
until Adi came and told me yesterday about it. He told me his teacher has said
that its Father’s Day and he is so excited about it. It sounded as if he really
understands about the day even though he is only five years old.
In the night we both sat together and
made a beautiful card and he was also ok in giving his candy to Appa. Since it
was late, we couldn’t go out and buy gifts for him.
While coming from school Adi also had
a card which wrote Happy Father’s Day in his own letters. 😊. I loved it.
Also, Adi was humming Father's Day, Father's Day, Father's Day
We both Love our Dad’s to the moon and back.

What makes you Happy
Do more of
what make you Happy. Life only comes around once so go ahead, don’t hesitate. This
is one lesson which we need to learn as early as possible.
Sometimes,
the cost of not following the heart is spending the rest of your life wishing
you had.
Sometimes little things keep us happy. A sunrise or sunset, cup of coffee, an interesting book, long drives, giggles, a rainy day, music, conversations with loved ones, a day out with our little boy, these little things which means a lot to me, keeps me happy.
Doesn’t matter
whether its little or big, we need to just find the things which keeps us Happy
in our day today life.

Beautiful Morning
Morning is pleasant after the night
shower. Especially, when it comes as an end to hot summer. Waking up to this
beautiful morning has given a positive vibe.
Looking out through the window I could
see the tiny rays of sun trying to embrace the grass. They were slightly
bending down as if shying away from first kiss. Birds are twittering around,
without any traces of early morning sleep deprivation. This morning could only
bring me joy. There is nothing more I could ask for. Just want to freeze in
time.
You might be thinking why am I talking
about rain and rainy mornings all the time. Believe me look through my eyes, no,
look through my heart you will also start loving rain. May be because I was
born and bought up in Kerala, God’s own country which is most beautiful during
rain. Of course, I have not been to any other part of world to find out about
their beauty.

Power Boost
Adi is five
years already. I remember the moment when I saw him for the first time. Those
tiny little hands which was always trying to catch something. Looking at his
face all I could feel was contented. The feeling which I cannot, may be none of
the mothers can put into words.
Adi is a
sweet little kid who wants to explore the word on his own terms. He doesn’t
listen to me at all. 😊☹. The only fact which makes me
relived is, he doesn’t listen to BS also.
There were
many changes in our lives during these five years. One of the main is
relocating to Kochi. Me and BS always wanted Adi to stay near to his
grandparents. It takes an hour and a half drive to reach our parents home.
Driving with
Adi is very difficult task for us. He wants to reach the destination within
five minutes of our journey. So, occupying him inside the car is my
responsibility by answering all the questions about any topic which has his
attention.
If I
couldn’t justify my responsibility right, we will end up in listening to his complaints
such as
Why Appa is
driving slowly?
Why our car
is not fast?
Why Appa is
not buying a racing car?
Why don’t
Appa do a power boost?
Why is it
the place is so far?
Why don’t we
crash all the cars and drive fast?
He
thinks driving a car should be as easy as playing a race game in his iPad. (for
him its easy but me, sucks). Do a power Boost!! He is just five and I can’t
think about the time he become 18 and start driving a car!!!!

Balance the Life, Live it as it is!!
Do you feel stuck in your life? Do you
feel that whatever you do doesn’t bring any happiness? Do you think the life
which you were leaving is not what really you want? Then you are not alone I am
with you.
I have searched for a solution all
over internet. There are hundreds in there. But not necessarily everything is
for you. We are living our life. No one is sure what situation we are in.
The life which we live will be only
measured by ourselves. Others can give you multiple choices but the one which
suits you should be selected only by you.
I was going through similar situation
few months before. I didn’t know what to do with my life. Life felt to be
meaningless in many situations. After searching through n number of websites I
understood one thing life is what we take it. There is nothing which blooms
forever. We cannot expect to be happy all the time. We might not even take
things positively all the time.
Its ok to be sad, its ok to be
frustrated, its ok to be upset about things. That’s life. Nothing is forever.
Live life as it is.
Yesterday I was tired, upset, got down
on myself. But today was better. it will be the same for you.
Balance with what’s important and let
the rest fall as it is!!
You are not
supposed to be happy all the Time. Life hurts and it is hard. Not because you
are doing it wrong, but it hurts for everybody. Don’t avoid the pain, you need
it. It meant for you. Be still with it, let it come, let it go, let it leave it
with the fuel you’ll burn to get your work done on this earth – Glennon Doyle
Melton.

Content Search
I always try to think about the topics which I
am going to write. Maybe I am not great in dialectal. When I read an article,
it makes me wonder how people write so beautiful and simple. A note which takes
us to some magical world.
But I am nothing like that. Maybe I will try
to improve.
Its almost 8.30 pm here. Still have pending
works. But here I am sitting in front of my laptop looking for topics to write
or trying my imagination work.
It’s the end of May and the schools are going
to reopen by first week of June. Adi is going to UKG. He is not studying IAS
but still I am worrying about his schooling's.
Will he learn the right way?
Do his schooling's going to teach him to be a
great human being?
Is he going to fight in the school?
Will he listen to his teacher?
For a child who is just five, I am
overthinking. Why don’t I leave him as he is? There might not be any use for me
to think about something which I don’t have control over. Instead of worrying I
can guide him to be a great human being. Leave him as the kid he is. Let him
enjoy his childhood completely.
Instead of thinking about his not near future
why can’t I just go back and think about the dinner which was supposed to be
ready before forty minutes.
Here I am already late.

Transformation – hoping for the best
I have started this blog years before. Till
today, I couldn’t be a regular blogger. All I want is to turn this to be a
place where I can pour out anything comes to my mind. But my last post was on
December 2016.
Lot of things have changed till then. My son
turned five. We moved cities. Lost some weight 😊. Only
thing with no revolution is may be this blog. It has not improved a bit from
the day I started this.
But,
Now I know who I
am
Now I know what I
must do
There is a
positive change in me.
Hope I continue
the same without falling back to
My indolence.
