A letter to my little Krishna...

-


My Dear little Krishna, you are turning 2 today and yes its been 2 yrs since I had an undisturbed sleep and since my phone was kept on high volume.

I am accustomed to watch videos on mute and the carts of ecommerce sites are already loaded with your items only.


"Intha nimidam Neeyum valarnthu Ennai thaanga yenginen

 Adutha kanamae kuzhanthaiyaaga Endrum irukka vendinen"

 As rightly penned ,i wish to see you as a grownup soon (so that my sleep cycle would be normal) yet  i wish you to remain the same to enjoy your innocence.

 From, you being spotted as a dot on the scan report to becoming a Boss baby in the home now, the Days pass by so fast.


The feeling I get is priceless whenever you say amma.

Your Actions make me realize that the kids would follow rather actions than words.

The thoughts of how we gonna bring you up as a respectable and responsible person in the society always linger in our mind as I always question my parenting.

Man, you never fail to keep us on our toes.


 we often relate to the Tamil movie dialogues "6 maniku mela ivan avadharame vera" ,whenever somebody tells you as chamathu and "1 latcha rooba contract da manalli potraadeenga" when somebody talks so loud when you are sleeping.

Your actions make me feel that getting a degree is not a real struggle but the parenting is. Yes, we do learn a lot every single day and grow along with you.

"Life is beautiful""...and its even more for us with you....


Every mother undergoes different kinds of emotions during parenting which is never ending and whatever we do is no lesser than others.We are doing a great job and never loose heart because  we do this for a beautiful soul who just smiles and come back only to us ,even we show little disappointments towards them. :)

Dedicating this to all moms and mom-to be...

How many languages do you know?

This question has always confused me — should I say Tamil or English? Or should I list C, Java, Scala? But on July 19th , as I complete 10 years in my career , I realize — I've learned more than just programming languages. I've learned the language of life. I still remember this day , 10 years ago , standing outside the Mindtree Kalinga campus in Bhubaneswar, Odisha , with my Appa. We had just completed a 2-day train journey. Both of us were wondering what this new IT world had in store for me. It was a strange mix of emotions: homesickness, excitement, fear, and curiosity. Being 1500 km away from home, in a new place, away from my family for 3 months — something even college hadn't prepared me for — was overwhelming. But what an experience it turned out to be! From meeting roommates from different states, tasting different foods, learning new cultures, struggling with training tests and projects, late-night discussions, and hunting for idly/dosas in Odisha... to managin...

One Phase at a Time – From Plaits to purpose

-
  It's been a while since I last shared something here. I’ve often tried to put my thoughts into words, but somehow, they never made it to the finish line. This time, I told myself—just write. Every afternoon, I pick up my kid from school. It’s usually quiet since it's just a half-day session. But last week, during exam season, things were different. The gates were crowded, with students bustling around, waiting for their vans. Among the crowd, I noticed a girl—probably in 12th grade—with two neatly tied plaits, dressed in a green uniform. She was anxiously looking down at her question paper. In that moment, I saw myself 14 years ago. I could relate so deeply to the look on her face. Maybe she messed up a big question or maybe just lost out on a few marks from a centum. And the first thought that crossed my mind was: Did I ever imagine that 15 years later, I’d be the one standing outside the school gates waiting to pick up my child? Not at all. All I worried about back then was...
