The in-laws that embrace unconditionally!


Day5...#100happydays #100daysofhappiness
We love and laugh, we cry and share, its all in the family and that's all we care. All through my years in college and after, I used to paint a picture of my in-laws... wish against reality. I had heard so many horrid stories of the 'in-laws' that I could only expect the worst. But happy to say and blessed in every way, I got lucky as my wish came true :)

Calm and poise with their spiritual bend, it’s a treat to spend time with them. I love the fact that they understand space and boundaries, it’s a rare quality but in our relationship we nurture everyday. That lovely cottage in the charming estate is a pretty picture with both of them there. Our vacations at home are always exciting, the relaxed holidays, the mouthwatering food, playful grandparents with grand kids in the yard, dodging the dogs - its our 'perfect getaway'. So much to appreciate - their unconditional love, their readiness to be there and thinking of them adds to my days of happiness in every way. They are not on Facebook, but they know they are loved, respected and cherished always...

Day 58.. ‪#‎ 100daysofhappiness‬   ‪#‎ 100happydays‬ This one was long overdue..in fact from feb onwards, but am not sure why I delayed such a valuable post. She is my forever friend, cause I have actually known her for almost forever -  Suhasini Ranganathan  whom I fondly call Su. She expresses with such warmth, she cares with an open heart, she trusts like no other and helps in any way possible. We have grown through our awkward years and built magical memories in the most simple  activities and moments. She cherishes the time gone by and always is by our side. She is the brightest I have known (with a report I still dream of) and yet appears in such simple modesty. She is the KPMG star, whose dedication is unquestionable. She is the perfect host and welcomes with such an open heart. She laughs in joy and holds dignity when laughed at. This badminton champion is a selfless Pisces woman who is true to her zodiac - creative, positive and intuitive with people she loves. We have

Day 93.. #100daysofhappiness #100happydays Tears were flowing uncontrollably and I almost thought that I would bawl. People around me were choking on emotion and I was sure that everyone was grateful it was dark and no one was visible. It was not just tears, but smiles too. It was not the filmy bollywood entertainment from any angle, but had a story that had to be told. Thankfully, it was a story that was narrated in perfection, had the impact that it deserved and left the audience, heart broken and motivated all in those couple of hours. While it inspired many even for a couple of seconds, it was a meaningful cinematic experience and a biopic that is lasting. My 100 days has tributes of people or experiences that are meaningful in my lifetime, so this definitely fits the criteria... a true story from my lifetime, when I was 6 years old. So here’s to Neerja – the brave heart who ruled hearts in silence. This true story took place in 1986. At that time, I definitely have
