Inflation is a constant thing in any country and it impacts developing economy more. It does hurt but is actually unavoidable. I don't save money as such like a regular saving. But yes, I have buckets for emergency fund, Recurring deposit ( I turn them into Fixed Deposit or some investment...
@Kennysplash . That sounds good. And it is so impressive that you don't do any work related things on weekends. That should be the practice to have better personal enjoyment and also to create a work life balance. Even I try to do that. But being an educator, I have to plan certain things for...
@Ginger. I am actually not a very extrovert or social butterfly kind of person. Many feel that I am shy or at least keep a very low profile in public. But I enjoyed the theaters once I joined it shedding my inhibitions. I have participated in many public speaking competitions in my School and...
@Sanjeev . Even for me, lyrics is very important. The songs that are loud and noisy are a strict no for me, even if they are in the languages that I understand. I like soulful songs. Even good pops and rock ones that have some good voice or instruments to be appreciated. There are many created...
@Sanjeev . Having only one day off in a week will make it even more precious. What you do for your Sunday sounds pretty good and very much what a family man would do. After six days of work, you need enough rest. Long sleeping hours and naps in the afternoon sound good. And ordering dinner from...

I have been brought up by my mom as a single parent. I had my grandparents who were loving authorities in my growing up years. I am fortunate to be brought up in a very loving and safe space. We got all the nurturing and nourishing. But yes, tough love was also shown at the needed times...
@Shortie . I am glad to know that. I can relate to that. I didn't marry my best friend. I married him after we were very good friends. And now without any doubt, I can say that he is my best friend and the most reliable one. Out of all the things that I value our relationship for, friendship is...
@Sanjeev. That's a long time in one school..and for sure you would have developed close friendship. I thought that staying in hostel gives more opportunities to develop closer relationship. I am sorry thar you didn't get good people in college. I was lucky that way. I had good people around me...
I know that I am a bit too early to start this discussion. Year 2026 is still a couple of months away. But soon it will be here. Many people have the habit of making new year resolutions. And most of the times, they are not achieved in one year and keep spilling to the next year. Haha.
Well...
It is said that for a music lover, language is no barrier..music connects deep to the soul. I am one person who values a good lyrics in any song. And to understand the lyrics, you need to understand the language. For most of my life, I have listened to songs where the lyrics made sense to me...
We all have certain things that we do out of habit or choice in the morning. For late risers, it can be later in the day when you begin your day. There are certain things in that morning ritual that we do out of compulsion as we have no choice and we do it. But then there are some that we do...

I love rain. I find it very romantic and just love the lush green surrounding that every shower brings. Fortunately, I stay in a place which has no specified time for rainy season and it rains throughout the year. We have a pleasant even weather throughout the year. But in the last few years...
Thanks for the clarification @Mike30 . I will keep coming back here and keep posting. And will keep my fingers crossed and hoping that my post grabs one of those lucky opportunities. Anyways, it will keep increasing my post count for other microlikes benefits. It's really fun.
It is said that marrying or being in relationship with your best friend is blessing. Well, not everyone is so lucky to get that kind of blessing..but then you can always be friendly with your spouse or partner. If not the best friend, he/she can be a very close friend. If friendship is there...
