QABOOS the great leader

A  note to my childhood .

So today I woke up with the status updates about Qaboos bin Said Al Said who passed away . My memories of him will always be fresh . I am 32 years old today but still the memories of Oman are always to be treasured. From the day I knew him he has always been the bestest leader . My best memory of him is seeing his picture fixed of the street lamps . I remember counting them while going in car with my family . Like wise so many memories and his face is unforgettable. I know like me many would miss him. Who ever has been in Oman would understand what I mean .

Now many might think why I wrote such a post for him especially.  Few memories are unforgettable especially the one whom I grew up seeing as a great leader .

Love to oman always ♡

Last post of 2019

2019 has been an ok ok year I would say a mixture of tension , harwork, dedication, self esteem, patience , arguments, tears etc

I am happy that I am making this the last post of 2019

What are the few things that 2019 taught me and what am i taking forward.

1. This year after going to Armenia( tunglis 1st vacation ) I decided every year a vacation is must because tungli enjoys it and as a family we get a good time to spend and end up with lot of memories and experiences .

2. Not to spend too much of money on birthday party instead go for a vacation

3.Save money as much as you can because liquid cash is always needed . Very important .

4.Kids will eat only what they want and not what you want them to eat so let them go in their way .

5. Never trust anyone because you never know how things will turn down so trust yourself and move on .

6. Hardwork and patience will definitely give results .

7.Deal most of the things with patience because it helps you keep calm and doest make the situation worst and gives the best result .

8.Do not talk or discuss anything to a person who dint stand for a particular scene . If it was a no! maintain your stand and get it done in a good way and stay humble.

9. Matrimony search is the most difficult task . Never an easy job

10.Wrong people will always teach you the right lesson and many did this to me this year .Thanks to them .

Point no 11 I learnt this from my brother

Do a good deed and throw it in the river , one day it will come back to you in the desert and this is 100 percent true . Trust me it comes late but it will ;)

So guys , let's start this year with good thoughts for us and others as well 

God bless you all .

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2020 .

Few life lessons

So as I have woke up early today and sent naveen to office with lunch boxes sitting with a coffee here with a positive head just thought of pointing few life lessons that i follow towards my daughter .

1.Allow the kid to talk whatever they want . Give that freedom so that they can be a better person

2.If you give them a task to complete and even if they dont like it  somehow make them to complete it so that they will learn to take responsibility of doing it . Try your best that they complete it .

3.Show them unconditional love . That's all that that need .If you dont then they might do things in a secret way and end up in problems when they grow up .

4 .If they say anything listen to them .They might be right . Do not think only you know everything because you are the parent .

5.Do not argue or fight with them .If they dont react properly definitely there is a reason behind it .Try to find and solve it or find an alternative way .

6.Do not enforce them in life .They might lose their interests and talent or who they are .Let them free.

Last but not the least

Be the bestest support system to them so that they be good humans .That's more important than everything else .

You have to go in their way to an extent there is no other option . You cant be a strict parent always in life .

Appa

Reading these letters
I get that pain in my throat
But not tears in my eyes because I dont have much of it.

The only thing I thought reading it is ,if at all I had been a grown up that day or if I had the money that I have now these letters would have not been alive .

I am so sorry that I couldn't help you in any way or save you,I was too small .

I would have never let you ask help to any
But there is one thing that we learned from you..

Live life to the fullest because its uncertain and I also understood that humans are selfish and jealous most of the time .

I am happy that you brought up us as good humans who understands others and live a meaningful life with humanity.

You taught us life in a very young age and I dont know whether to be proud of it or sad about it .

Love you dad

Navarathri 2019-Dubai

Hello everybody !

This Navarathri I am in dubai and this is the small arrangement that I made at our home.I hope you all liked it . Post in your views . The forest was set up for tungli . Had few friends home and a good time this navarathri . See you all in my next blog ♡

Onam 2019 _ Dubai

Happy Onam to all of you . My onam memories goes on like this . We lived in a house which was located in a village in palakkad . We had a big veranda to make the pookalam ( designs) . I am actually good in climbing walls and trees like monkeys to pluck the flowers from the backyard .Myself , my brother and sister would take a basket and go to the backyard early in the morning and make sure we get the bestest flowers. We have to really go early or else others would have taken all the flowers hence it's a funny task . Some days we get many flowers and some days it's one or two that's all.

The flowers which we had in the backyard were chebaruthi , sangu pushpam ,pavizha malli, nandhiyarvattai and there is something called as mathan poo ( pumpkin flower )and pasharu(green algea). We used take the algae from the walls of wells at home .

On the day of Onam alone we go sultanpet market with our father to buy flowers .Rest of the days we make pookalam with the flowers we have from the backyard .

How we design it ?We wash the veranda and look at the roads for cow dung . I am the one who takes the cow dung in hand because my brother doesnt like to do it .He would catch the cover and I would take it and put it in the cover . We add some water to it and make a round design with the cow dung and keep it in the middle and keep a flower on top of it . This is mainly done because for the cow dung smell no animals or insects would come and spoil the pookalam.

I am always the one doing the art and my brother and sisters play the PA role ;) My parents would see and say very nice shilpa,super design today . After this we just go for a walk to see the designs in others house and we tell to ourselves oh the design in my house is wow ;) how funny when we think about it now . New dress and onam sadhya is a sure one .

So this is how we were celebrating onam !

Today , sitting in dubai I think of all this. I made a small pookalam because we stay in a flat. We went in taxi and bought flowers . Just wanted tungli to know there is something called onam and this is all we do in our family . I made a small Onam sadhya because I dont want to buy it from hotel as others do . Tungli helped me a bit in peeling onions , cleaning coriander and so on . She knows to do all these because she sees me doing the household everyday .

Surprise is naveen got me a Onam saree and a jewellery .Though he is from Tamil nadu he appreciates everything that I do and loves it hence I am happy . Peace .

I wish everyone a happy onam and enjoy the best . Childhood is always the best and if you have kids do try your best to give atleast half of the childhood memories you had . The world has changed a lot actually .....not like before . In the name of modern many beautiful things are lost ...I wish many realise it and live life to the fullest .

I shall post our onam pictures in the next blog soon .
