I’ve been gone.

Now that I see my stats for January, they’re better than in December! I guess distance truly makes the blog-heart grow fonder too.

It has been almost two months since I posted something on the blog. These breaks have been more frequent and sporadic in the last few months. If I promise myself that I will post something big and fancy on the blog, I end up missing my deadlines and skip the normal light posts too. For some reason, time and life have been incredible in the last few days and that did not leave me much time to just sit down and write.

It is not like I don’t have time, I while it away! Haha. It really is not funny but it has been happening. For every two productive hours I have, I end up wasting the rest of that day. Youtube, people, and life’s chores are the culprits. I cannot skip the daily chores while living alone which means that I wasted my time on the phone scrolling aimlessly. Or by chatting and talking to an obscene number of people.

Something changed at the end of November, which altered my mood and general outlook towards a lot of things in life and I attribute it to my long time friend P. If it manifests into good things, I will give her all the due credit. But for now, it made me very happy and incredibly bubbly for all the days that I’ve lived since then. You could say that I started experiencing a lot, living a lot, and letting go of a lot. I opened myself up to new, exciting experiences which were a scary but fun rollercoaster. I cannot really share what she told me, or what was the direct consequence of it, but I lived a life that didn’t feel like mine for almost a month! And then I slowly got to normal.

I am not even myself anymore! I am a little bit changed after experiences and feelings, because those were ones that could alter your personality. Don’t get me wrong, I was on adrenaline and life-high! But it was new to me. We went travelling to Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava in December and I will be posting the pictures and blog for that soon. There was also a trip to Harz mountains in Germany that will be a well sought-for post, especially for my friends. I am not the trekking kind of girl, but I went there! It was one of the most transformative trips of my life, along with the other one in December. A shell was cracked, some stuff spilt out, some changed and the highest impact was on the mood and the general vibe of my personality.

Long story short, I will be back to posting, regularly I can hope. And since February is exam month, I will definitely be posting regularly 😀 I am hoping that it will keep on the groove for the next few months while I’m pumped and feeling creative.

So thanks for reading my rant and very vague life update. I don’t share much anyway, and this is a lot considering my habits. But then again, I went through a mini transformation. Nothing is off-limits anymore.

Marry someone who..

Marry someone

who loves your morning

just-woken-up face!

I know this could get heated. I myself am not a huge fan of the concept, but for people who would marry someone, it could be helpful if they were in love with the real you! No makeup, no pretentions and masks. That is what this post signifies.

Define Love

Define Love.
It’s a feeling, an emotion, and a religion that you make. It’s a current that shoots through your body electrifying and numbing the senses, both at once. It ebbs and flows, transforms you all day, every day. It lifts you up and keeps you afloat. It can also drown you. Because there is no exception or definition of love that is complete. It’s you, and it’s that one person who you just thought of.

 


We’re defining love today! I wouldn’t take up this immense task myself if it weren’t for overwhelming feelings one day, and this piece was born. It has been a while, and I still stand by this definition. It could change one day, but the last sentence will always resonate with me. Sometimes I surprise myself with some of my words. I just have never known that this feeling or this emotion exists in me – it is birthed in grandeur frequently. However, the underlying emotion resonates with a lot of people, and I am taken aback by the power of words! Especially when it is about life, relationships and/or love. I do not claim to be the authority on all of this, but a good grasp of the concept is enlightening and honestly a little bit empowering.

I share my raw feelings here like it were my diary. If you’re looking for me, you’ll find me between the lines, the rhetoric of the meaning and the metaphor of the cliche. What can I say, I love words and the English language!

Hope everyone reading has a lovely day! Signing off.

Talk to Me

Talk to me and I will not let your words drown in silence!


Do you have someone you talk to? Someone who will listen carefully, and then give their advice. Help you through difficult or tough situations? In this post, I’m proposing that I would listen if you talk to me. I will not be silent if you share your deepest desires, secrets or regrets either. Share. Have a great day. 😄

Share this with a person who is your rock. Or that person who you would love to listen to. Leave your thoughts below.
This I posted a few days ago on my Instagram account. You can follow along for more impromptu posts and Instastories about the food that I cook/eat, about the places I visit and more from my daily life.

Fat.

Fat is a feeling.
Do not let it overpower you! ©

This is something I tell myself every day, or on most days when I am feeling not so well about the physical form of my body. I am generally body-positive, and these lines are my strength. And now I’ve shared this with the world. More power to everyone!

Love,

Saloni

Diamonds in making…

Do not feel forweary about the things you do daily. Only hammering the stone a million times brings out the diamond.


A little post for motivational purposes! I wrote this while I was still working, and I myself needed little boosts of inspiration to keep me going, to keep from feeling disappointed. It was really important to have a positive aspect in my life, and this seemed like the most appropriate way of saying what I was feeling. Have a good day! Share your words of wisdom, if you follow something in particular.

Electric!

Sometimes, the spark is so electric, so exciting that it ends up birthing poetry and stories that are magnificent. You can spend weeks so bathed in the light of new love.


I think this was written about a few months ago, and posted exclusively for my Instagram profile. This is a simple description of all the exciting things that love can be associated with.

Honey,

I wear these scars with pride.

They’re a reminder of every battle I’ve won!


Each scar could be a representation of the obstacles you have crossed to achieve something. It is hard work and challenging to do new, out of the box things. So the protagonist is proud of their scars. It was first published on the blog in May 2018.

Smile!

Just smile.

Everyday!

Sounds simple. And yet we forget to do that for ourselves. It is the little things that can turn your day around. And a smile, for yourself, could turn out to be one of the most positive things you do. And the ability to smile through troubles or life makes you a stronger, happier person. Have a great day, everyone!
