4. A week of de-cluttering unnecessary objects, toxic people  and toxic thoughts.
5. A month without complaining.
6. A month of minimization - of expenses, products etc.

The Palace of Illusions - Beyond The Storyline

“The Palace of Illusions” has been popping up on the feed of my good reads since a very long time. For my disinterest to read a fiction I did not choose to read it for quite a long time but we never know when and why we choose to read a particular book :) Finally I downloaded it and started reading two months ago in bits and pieces. I was fascinated to see the imaginary yet relatable perspective of Draupadi on the story of the great timeless epic Mahabharata.            While the story of the epic remains the same, the author Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni gives a gripping narration of the story of Mahabharata through the character Draupadi herself. The book sets us on a journey from the superficial understanding to the deepest, darkest thoughts of Draupadi . Draupadi , who is considered as the most powerful, chaste, pure character of the epic Mahabharata, gives a detailed narration of her most vulnerable feelings. In the novel, she as...

I’m trying to re-choreograph, retry, reimagine. But it’s mentally exhausting. Is this confusion due to a lack of clarity? Or is it growth? Growth in awareness, in taste, in sensibility? When I ChatGPT-ed the...

          "If You Don’t Heal What Hurt You, You’ll Bleed on People Who Didn’t Cut You."                                                                                                                            -Unknown                All the ruckus in the world is a result of not loving ourselves enough and not healing ourselves from what broke us. Anger, greed, jealousy, insecurity, lust, power are the emotions that we spill on others to meet our own shortcomings. This is because most of us run away from our emotions like grief, jealousy, insecurity and the like. We think that by running away, we can get rid of ...
