she strives to do it all
When we were young, parents encouraged us to take baby steps in any possible encounter. Be it to sit, to crawl, to stand, to eat, to play, or to speak – we attempted them all with courage.

Purple sky, purple sea. Is this an outcome of the sky’s reflection, or the other? Who we are today is primarily a consequence of our own decisions and actions. Whilst we are susceptible to conditions that are beyond our control, others too have no exceptions. Instead of finding reasons for failures, a good reflection of…

In fact, some of these initiatives are considered initially to assist women in competing better at workplace, in particular working mothers who return from long maternity…
A class of ten participants, I was one of them who attended the long awaited Art Workshop early this week. It was my very first, a novice who has never experienced an art conversation with other artists. Art is personal and it is an emotional topic. To establish a conversation about art, with candor is…
