Note to Self- Recap of 2022 and learnings

  Dear 2022, You have been a roller coaster ride.   Some memories to cherish, some learnings to carry on as I will be entering another exciting year which means new opportunity every single day of the year. Some tangy experiences leaving pungent impact that I may want to erase from my life. This is the season of celebrations, of baking, exchanging gifts, relishing cup cakes and taste mouth savoring desserts, travelling, house parties, of bonfire, making customary resolutions😃 , taking forward some learnings from 2022 and beyond.  On the last day of 2022, I bid adieu to my older version.

DIFFERENT SHADES OF HAPPINESS

In October 2017 I visited Dilli Haat with my mother to enjoy the organic food festival. We walked through various stalls and bought some organic stuff. It was at one of the stall, while buying lemongrass, when she already handed over the money to the vendor, she changed mind and decided not to buy the same. Without realizing that she hasn’t taken the money back, she politely refused the vendor and started walking with small steps.

The vendor, a young boy hailing from Uttarakhand, became the hero for us. The mere thought that honesty still prevails and people do have strong value system made both of us happy. While travelling in metro last week, a small kid boarded metro with his mother and started roaming. People were enamoured by his innocence, his gullible acts. He would walk few tiny s...
