Whether a success of a fail- you will gather the judgements for sure. Minimalism is surely x-factor in this world full of rage, clutter and consumerism. If you are successful in keeping yourself at bay to these – You are already a Minimalist. If you find time for the things you truly Love- You are already…
Sometimes, a casual conversation ends up in food for thought. There’s a girl in our Office building whose first glance is so impressive that no one can take their eyes off her. Ahh, I am going wrong again- How can I decide for others. Okey, editing my words- I myself could not take my eyes off her. She is so PERFECT in her dressing, hair, skin and everything that first glance tells. Yesterday, she was a part of our discussion.…
Unsolicited advice is a common thing in our country. Every Parent has to face it. ‘WEAK’ is a haunted word to me. It’s been overused by people around, to the point of losing its original meaning. Let’s not confuse it with slim. This interchanging of words has become ingrained enough in our psyche as to become a cliché. I was a lean but active child- fond of butter and paneer. Despite my love for milk products, I did not ever have…
As I am writing for this post, I cannot miss re-posting an old incident happened way back in 2011: You must have heard about the infamous local train journey in Mumbai.Yes you are right, its overcrowded but lively and memorable.

Its high time we leave these habits as they reflect a bad picture. 10 Indian Habits we should give up- Breaking traffic rules We cut the Queues. We Break the Traffic signals. We don’t respect Traffic Cop. Turn the newspaper and you will read about endless incidents proving my point. Unnecessary Honking…
Hospitals should be packed with Positive vibes that they can surpass the affect of Grief and Sufferings of patients. In one of my previous Posts, I shared my experience of a day spent in Hospital. A helping hand is missing in Indian Government hospitals and latest experience of my Family proves that true. Few days back, one of my Maternal Aunt was diagnosed with swelling in Kidneys. She referred a private Doctor who advised her to undergo a small surgery.…
Less fortunate- A phrase with varying definitions as it can only be measured relatively. When we compare ourselves with the ones more privileged, we would always feel less fortunate. [clickandtweet handle=”lifebioscope” hashtag=”education” related=”” layout=”” position=””]In this Digital age, we tend to forget about the things we are blessed with.[/clickandtweet] It was my Husband’s Birthday and like every year, we have chosen to donate fruits to the less fortunate Kids sitting outside the temple.

TOI yesterday’s headline was World Climate Change as Nations are gathering for Climate Summit in Paris. Thanks for diverting to the real issue after those Religious Hogwash. Mr. Prime Minister is very right in saying “CHECKING GLOBAL WARMING IS EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY. ENERGY CONSERVATION IS THE BEST WAY TO DO IT” When it comes to Unity, our minds are stereotyped to think about only Religious Unity and we let trivial matters such as Climate to be tackled only by Ministry. As…
