What do I talk- to my Kids?

"It is important to have a dashing personality" Be it while attending an interview or gr bride/groom selection,Grooming starts as early as when the child is a toddler. " The little one can turn out to be  a  king kong or  settle down as a door mat !

PARENTING DOES PLAY A ROLE!!


 I feel parenting has a greater impact, the socializing pattern and the culture in which we have been brought  up has a bearing on our emotions and behavior.

 I  appreciate the sincere efforts taken by parents to enroll kids in the best top schools and in all possible classes, extra circular programs hoping to see an IITian  football, sport champion in the near future. 

My next stand would be 'What is the rapport between children of today and their parents'? Sensitive question indeed!

Any healthy conversation happening between kids and parents? Not Really!

 Why not happy chat - between them- Sample this.

1. Dear Anu 'What fascinated you in today's newspaper'?

2.  Hi Biju  just tell me when  you r mad at someone what's the first you tend to do?

3. Maya 'Did you enjoy the harry potter series I got you recently?

How many families take out time to dine together? It's not the question of time it's the question of attitude and the wanting to bond and know more about your kids



#TALK TO YOUR KID#

'Next time don't you feel you have ran out of topics when you converse with your kid' -

The Magic is really happening!

If you're (IN) different - Give it a read!

"Attitude is a small thing, which makes a huge difference" - I tried to comprehend this phrase and realized there is a totally different meaning associated with it! I had been under the perception that attitude is a reflection of one's personality, the unique character traits one holds! But I am totally flawed!

Let me narrate few things!
If you got this- you're very close to having an amazing attitude!

  • -To have a great attitude, you should just not be yourself!
  • -Words such as don't worry, I will be there no matter what- are out of fashion
  • -Like I care, 'What ever' (Body language)- Artificial smile 


I understand that attitude and personality need to be poles apart, that's the new trend...


  1. Just try starting a fresh new conversation with your colleague , the more you talk, the more freaky your seen
  2. When you are in absolute distress text a buddy seeking help  the response you might get is "Make it quick, I got better things to do"
  3. Well, argue with your friend and the reply you would get in the end "WHATEVA, I understand, It just cant work"
  4. Talk to your love bug after a horrible fight '


  •  Darling I love you eternally"
  • Reply "Well, Its hard, and may not work out- Lets see"
  • But 'I love you'
  • 'Oh yes even I do. But 'Maybe'
  • What May be'?
  • K

 Does it sound familiar! - Well, we have all fallen into the trap sometime or the other -

Indifference has become the new trend. The more indifferent one behaves the more one suffers inside. It might look all fancy outside and it might be welcomed with a huge applause but inside the escapist mode s on..

Let me not say 'Oh you have attitude' and I have a problem with it

Let me say 'Oh you have an attitude disorder' I have no problem with it! 

If you can relate- COMMENT- SHARE your experience'

Await (s) the 'New look'

Mind Space - It's an expression of my thoughts, every random feeling which has created an impact !

Wait! It doesn't stop with that, it would be complete only when readers share there perception too!

I don't believe in maintaining  a genre and trying to revolve around that  small little world!

 Anything that hits your thought process and gives you the WOW feeling for a min needs to be documented! is what I believe..

Lets see how 'Mind Space' can expand and grow to the fullest extend!

Role Model - Lakshmi


Something that touched me!

Nurture yourself; you’re the master of your own self…

“Sacrifices are must and I don’t mind working hard to see my dream come true” says Lakshmi. She wears that ever green smile on her face despite all hardships. She was born and brought up in a family which could neither support her nor guide her. Lakshmi was wedded in her early teens and her lifestyle didn’t change for any good. It only brought additional unwanted responsibility and burden. Despite all odds, she stands all confident and believes that there is something great that’s waiting. She quotes that ‘when the going gets tough; the tough get going”.

                                                                                     ***
 Lakshmi had to make important decisions to sculpt her children’s future. Her decisions and strategic moves play a very important role in determining their future. She is very much aware of her limitations. Lakshmi being a road side vendor selling consumers non durable and perishables finds it very difficult to manage her expenses. “Chennai is a very expensive place, prices are sky rocketing. It’s sometimes very hard to meet our basic necessities. It’s the game of survival of the fittest.” she says. There is no immediate scope to either expand or diversify her business. She felt the only way to sustain is to save!

                                                                                     *** 
 A strong believer and a patient achiever is what defines her. Being a school dropout she had experienced the pain of not being educated. Her strong desires to see her children educated propelled her and convince others in her neighborhood to join the ‘Post office saving scheme’ thereby save every penny they earn. When asked her “How difficult it was to save a portion of her income, when she was in dire need of finance?” She smiles and says “It has taught me how to manage my expenses, prioritize my needs and reduce my wants”. Laksnmi started her savings account with mere two hundred rupees and over the years it has multiplied and reaped her returns amounting to ten thousands rupees ‘ I value every rupee, I encourage and advice everyone to save” she says. Lakshmi has indeed seen her dreams come true. Don’t be reluctant to save; it is going to give unimaginable returns in the future. Believing in one’s own self and being self reliant is key to success.

“Sow the seeds now; reap the benefits soon”
