Would be unfair if I mention your name, would be even more unfair if I don't. But I have decided to keep you anonymous for now. I have known you for thirteen years and all these time, the one common thing about us mutated into a sisterly bond. Being the single child of our parents the world tagged us wayward and selfish. But we knew every rudiments of life. I must tell you I had the best times growing up with you.

You taught me pain, you taught me love and kindness, you showed me the significance of being restless and dangerous as I would like to call it, and at the same time how to be generous with goodness. Three days back when you suffered the greatest loss of your life, I was cursing the day I decided to move to Canada, I know I haven't been there for you physically for the past 8 months, but I could not even give you my time, perhaps I got too selfish and dangerous and forgot about you and I feel insanely guilty about it.

Change has truly transformed me and I am deeply sorry, I didn't even spare God, I could not understand why God was still so unfriendly, but it was all my way to escape my ignorance for not being there for you for the only time you needed me most. I was not at peace with myself, when I could not reach out to you even through a phone call. I feared about the grievous consequences of this loss.

Even when miles and seasons separated us, when I finally got to talk to you, I was never this happy to hear you again. You were not the person I knew. There was this spark in you waiting to be ignited to be a wildfire,you were transformed into this brand new individual, the one with the dream, the one to be feared, the one who will be remembered, and it was my happiest day.

I am not afraid anymore, I am just supremely positive about you, for I know you are truly the best thing that has ever happened to me, I promise to be with you always sister.

Much Love,
XXXXXX

This is my weight loss story and I won't recommend it

I have never wanted to be a Health blogger, boasting about ways to go vegan, feed on green fluids which tastes like an exploded veggie dynamite in your mouth. But I have to do this, yes I used to be one of those females cutting off dairy, cutting off gluten, cutting off sugar and all the wonderful things from my life. Yes two months back I had the most paper thin body of all. And I did this all just to clear up my face. I went down to shocking 40kg! I was falling ill frequently. The worst part, I was still so stubborn with my diet, I was happy with the fact that my face was clearing and that's when I started forgetting about my health.  For my 25th birthday, it somehow struck me, that I had to stop this. I got so paper thin. It was then that I ended the months old diet. I started feeding on cheese, meat, sugar. Clearly for the first few weeks I could see all the side effects on my skin, I thought no to bother and kept going. The following week, I  finally felt flesh

I am not a churchgoer and to be certifiably true to myself, it has been more than six months since I last attended a mass. Crowd intimidates me . I am the kind of person who goes to church as a loner. I like sitting there quietly to ruminate, to thank,  to implore, to pray and maybe just stay still in the tranquility. When my mother dragged me to church the other day, I was prepared to stay quiet. The liturgy began, followed by gospel reading and it was time for pastor to speak. I was listening diligently. And I was just so grateful for being there then, for I heard this humble gem of a story called, ROSES FOR MAMA. And now I am here writing about it, a small thought for our busy lives. * ROSES FOR MAMA * It was his mother's birthday, even in his busy schedules between work and marriage he always made sure to send roses for his mama on her special day.  During the lunch hour he went to the usual flower shop and ordered the most expensive bouquet of

Are you two together?

This is the most obvious question when a girl and a guy hangs out. But things got interesting when I went out with two of my guy friends. This happened back in 2016. We were at a restaurant at Niagara falls. There was this enthusiastic photographer going to every table taking complimentary pictures. He finally came to our table and offered to take a picture. We agreed. The three of us sat together. I was in the middle. Looking at me and the buddy to my left, the photographer asked, "Are you two together?" To this, 'the left side buddy' said, "Nooooooo!" The photographer did not give up. Looking at me and the buddy to my right side he asked,"Are you two together?" To this, 'the right side buddy' said, "Nooooooooooo!" The photographer just couldn't help the last question, he had to ask. Looking at both the guys he asked, "Are you two together?????" To this the three of us said in unison - &
