Day by Day

Many exciting things have been happening lately... and i have been busy trying to savor the moment... and have not written...

First came an email from Delia Radhu from the BBC and an invitation to feature as a woman blogger on her program... it was a great honor and interesting experience... a gratification of sorts... an official recognition... and as quickly and unexpectantly as that came in, it was soon submerged by other news too...

I am taking my first official vacation in 2 years, and i can't wait for it to start...my body is in overdrive, colds and runny stomachs...headaches... all shout: STOOOPPPP... pls take a break... and for once, i'm obliging...

I'm also at a crossroad at my career, many interesting things pulling me in different directions... a compass is looking really good right now...

But i am following a new philosophy of Living Day by Day... keeping the guidelines and the planning, but not the anxiety and the worrying and the over-analysis... because a recent experience taught me that even though you spend so much time worrying and planning, something you never saw coming can arrive and disrupt your life, and without warning cause havoc... and most of your planning would be in vain...

So, after this post, i am going to delve into the fun part in me, dust it off, and let it soar, and sail... admiring a warm sunset on blue water, and hidden Turkish bays...
