MarchForWomen
March was Women's Month. And it started out strong. But somewhere it got hijacked by a dreaded little virus and took away all the attention. Today on the last day of March, here's looking at women again. And getting once again inspired. Because if we are to solve the world's problems, we will need the feminine energy more than ever. Here... do share with the women who you think have ...

My30DayTransformation
My 30 Day Transformation If I signed up for the #30DayBloggingChallenge, conceived and run by Sarah and Kevin Arrow, I knew what I had signed up for. I knew it would challenge me.

My 30 Day Transformation From weakling to warrior If I started with trepid...

FindingHope
Seriously. Where DO you find hope? I looked for hope everywhere. And found it outside my window. In the rustling of the trees. The sounds of the birds. The evening sky. The crescnet moon. And then I wrote this. And turned it into a little film. For you to see. Find hope. And share.

From Darkness to Light How does one go from Darkness to Light? These indeed are trying times. Where everywhere you look doom and gloom reigns. As I write this I've just come across devastating news of someone passing away. Someone young and seemingly invincible. If it is all darkness it is here. What does darkness mean in times like these?

HopeYouFeelBetter
Hope you feel better The times right now are tough. Especially the lockdown. Social distancing and the ensuing sense of isolation. And there's not much we can do for each other except give each other a virtual handshake or a hug. I've been sending flower emoticons to friends who are unwell, hug emoticons to thank someone and then the lovely one that shows biceps for a 'More Power To Y...

I wish you enough
I remember a time when a post with this title, 'I wish you enough' was doing the rounds of the Internet. In those days it came in as email. It was a touching little anecdote of a father and daughter saying their (maybe last) goodbyes to each other at the airport at which point each says to the other, "I wish you enough". It was a contribution by Bob Perks to Chicken Soup for the Soul. So...

There's so much people have said about HOPE. And what they said... about hope, is for times like now. As India moves into a 21-day lockdown, people are in a state of panic, uncertainty and to a small extent, hopelessness. But we cannot despair. Hope has to come from within. And all we can really do is... HOPE. What they said... about hope So here's a quote from Thomas Carlyle. And...

On a wing and a prayer
On a wing and a prayer In 1943 as World War II raged on, a pilot whose plane was quite damaged was trying to make an emergency landing. While doing that he radioed to the station down that he was "coming in on a wing and prayer". Inspired by this, a wartime song was written for it. It's set in that time, but it has a lovely marching beat to it (can almost imagine the infantry singing ...
