Whoa, will you look at that?! A little over a month of unbroken blogging. Not too shabby!
Here are a few things that I am grateful for today:
1. Papa is well. He came over today to Bandra. It was so great! He had some paratha and soya curry and a jam sandwich snack. We both had sliced apples. It was a nice time.
2. I forwarded a message of a friend who is house hunting. In response another friend messaged me something that caused me to feel... something painful. Every day I try to hold the intention that something in me is stronger than the weak yet tough feelings or memories that may arise in me. I am not winning that war yet but I am getting better at spotting the face of the enemy. Well...some day soon the tide will turn. But in any case, I am still grateful for this because it is an opportunity to strengthen one's resolve.
3. Went to watch Bombay Meri Jaan, a play at Prithvi. I am so deeply grateful to be living this close to Prithvi theatre and having enough resources to buy a ticket, take a rick and watch the play. I cannot explain just how deeply fulfilling the experience of watching a play is! The bookstore at Prithvi...Paperback...is as cozy and filled with juicy little titles as before.
4. Papa had got me mango chutney that his cook had made. That was nice.
5. I have a house, am safe, and have food, running water, electricity, and lots of books. This opens up so much space for other things...mainly the opportunity to do work on yourself, by yourself.
