Accidentally & unknowingly, the pandemic gave me an opportunity to commence my new excursion
A journey of residency in the fairytale land of words
Where brewing stories every day is done by the humble and adept minds.
I made a small place for myself, & was welcomed with open arms
It’s the start of my Writers’ Stride.
The town of syllables is my new abode,
The community of my fellow writer buddies are my new kin,
And each story I write is my baby…I live in two different worlds

But the magical paradise of words is where I pour my soul’s essence untold.
100 Reasons for My Happiness
Growing up, I fancied learning and augmenting my language skills. I always yearned to master them. Not that I’ve mastered any; but I still sure have the inclination and motivation to do the equivalent. English, is a language I enjoy learning and exploring each day. I am an avid reader and I find pleasure in books and words.
To give wings to my endeavor, during lockdown I came across blogging, and soon I started writing. I explored the new ME. I knew I could write, but wasn’t sure that I would commence the journey and would start penning words. Never had I dreamt of getting a label of an author/blogger. It is an elating feeling, each day when I write prompts and quotes and brews. As a neophyte, discovering from the fellow mommies, the excellent orators, and essayists, I admire each one and their strengths. I wish I reach a level close to them someday.
Today is a momentous day because, in the pursuit of finding myself, I found my happiness in writing. In the pursuit of happiness, I have found a writing spirit, the storyteller, I found in me.
Applauding and commemorating each one who made me believe I can do it. My hubby is my greatest support system and believer in me, my kids who never failed to amaze me by giving me space and calm when I need my writing time. Every bit of the universe conspired in giving me the happiness I longed for.
Today I’ve not one but 100 reasons to be happy. Taking those tiny steps, I didn’t realize when I trod so long. I know it’s still just an advent, and the voyage is still to sail far. With all the love and support, I’m sure to achieve many more feats. Hope to reach the stars, with my writing goals and reach far beyond. My journey is to discover, reflect and grow each day, expressing my thoughts in black and white, yet giving color to the imagination of the readers.
The pursuit of happiness is not a journey to embark on, rather it’s an effort to dig deep within oneself, as it has always been residing right there in plain sight.
