PEOPLE SKILLS OR LOVE - WHAT HELPS IN BONDING? When someone says, "You have good people skills", I wonder if it is the people skills or is it love that helps us to bond with one another? When we freely love each other, we naturally take care of one another, understand each other's point of view, respect unconditionally, and get along well. We need people skills when we want OUR way in relationships and situations. When we truly love, there is nothing that is ours or theirs. It just IS. When we move away from motives that only satisfy us, we are available to be with another being in a much more magnificent manner than ever before. By being in this way, unconditionally for each other certainly leads to good and lasting relationships. Yes, people skills may help in understanding others, in communicating effectively, in putting across a point powerfully. However, that seems more overwhelming a task. The simplest way is to love, and the rest will automatically follow. We will naturally start listening to understand rather than to judge. We will appreciate rather than criticize. We will love selflessly rather than selfishly. Such purity in love makes our world beautiful. - Dr. Jahnvee Joshi (Asst. Prof, Dept. of Human Development) ------****------

If you feel that life‟s boring just say to yourself “Wow! I‟m alive” because the one who has the knowledge that he is mortal feels his life is short and will not waste his time in unfruitful things but one who doesn‟t have this knowledge feels life is too long.

STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENTS OF DR B. M. N. COLLEGE OF HOME SCIENCE „College‟ DR BMN college of Home Science is our second Home. A place which has turned us from being simple to stylish, shy to confident and emotional to wise.Being students first, and presidents of the students‟comittee later, we have learned a lot throughout the journey. From not missing out on any extracurricular activities to keeping our grades on top, our college has taught us to balance our lives and has changed us completely. We would suggest that all students must become adventurous and participate in as many events and activities as possible because that's what can make a very big difference!

We thank this institute for making us understand that the more we participate, the more we learn. By always giving us a bag of opportunities to draw from, and platform to stand on, learn, grow and explore. It has made us what we are today proud, kind and responsible BMNITES.

------****------BEST SPORTS WOMAN OF DR B. M. N. COLLEGE OF HOME SCIENCE "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"

This quote has made me believe that college years without sports is extremely monotonous and dull!

I am ever grateful to our college, Dr B. M. N. College of Home Science, for providing us with amazing facilities in sports, which led me straight to joining the chess club by chance and it changed my college life forever!

My life and soul is dedicated to my favourite sport Chess, the talent which I learnt and imbibed in college from my Coach, Mr Hrishikesh Chavan. Chess is not just a mental sport, it is a way of life and living. The way it shapes your personality and sharpens your mind tremendously is something I really admire and the complexity and novelty of the game leaves me awestruck! Chess has made me positive and hopeful because though it teaches you the value of learning from losing, yet it motivates me to keep looking at different moves to go ahead!

Students usually neglect sports thinking that once they devote themselves to it, they won't be able to focus on their curriculum. This was once said by my coach and I quote, "Skipping chess for studies is like skipping gym to be in shape, it's counter productive".Which is why I owe it to chess for making me way sharper and focused in studies! My ever supportive teachers of the BCA dept stood by me, helping me juggle sports and academics smoothly. I'm really thankful to our sports teachers, Rikisha ma'am and Dipali ma'am, who are always by my side, encouraging me to participate and win any tournament that I set my foot in.

Three years of continuous and relentless learning, and still it feels as if I have a long way to go!

SOLAR LAMP WORKSHOP And when millions of lamps gleamed at once, the Father of our nation, the Father of those million hearts, smiled up there among the stars! I think the „MILLION SOLAR URJA LAMP‟ initiative (SoUL) should be India‟s „official movement‟ for the „Go Solar‟ initiative. I can‟t explain in words how proud I felt when I read the words, „STUDENT SOLAR AMBASSADOR‟ on my solar lamp. What an initiative IIT BOMBAY! I think it is not only a „million solar lamps‟ initiative, but also an initiative to bring „million dollar smiles‟ on the faces of our entire developing nation, because what better than „Gift of Light‟ for a nation where some parts are still amidst the brutal dark? I am still ecstatic and can‟t get over the fact that „I‟ made a lamp. So let me thank you first for giving us the opportunity to create something which we wouldn‟t have thought of creating in our entire life. Thank you to my college and the entire team who made this event in our college a huge success. We were guided by a meticulous presentation on various solar facts, about solar energy and also step by step counselling while assembling the lamps. (We support „Go Solar‟ entirely considering the fact that we have our own solar panels in our college) At the end of the day everyone was „all smiles‟ to carry their own creation home. Being a little part of a big change is a matter of pride, and we being the future of our nation, we knew we were following the quote “Be the change you wish to see in the world” by Mahatma Gandhi on his own birthday. Also, I‟d like to mention, after assembling the lamps, some of us were even saying that we will give these lamps to the students in the slums of our city or the financially weaker section of our society, so that no student is deprived of a thing as basic as light. I think that‟s the magic of it, it inculcated the moral to grow together and be the „helping hand‟ too. I‟d like to conclude by saying that, in a developing nation like ours where people are going through so much everyday, let‟s be the light in someone‟s dark! -Ms. Sejal Hatiskar (FYBCA I) ------****------THE BENEFITS OF PARTICIPATION!

Being in a Women's University, we often come across the term 'Women Empowerment'. I believe it doesn't only mean educating a girl with bookish knowledge. Empowerment truly occurs when a girl is able to voice out her thoughts and opinions confidently. In India, most of the students do not have English as their mother tongue which often acts as an obstacle during presentations. Initially I was hesitant towards public speaking but continuous participation in literary events such as debate ,symposium ,research paper presentations ,etc. helped me to overcome my hesitation. It was indeed tough to balance studies and these extra-curricular activities at times but my teachers and especially Principal Dr. Prof Mala Pandurang encouraged me to participate and helped in multitasking. I started believing in the fact that, 'Participation is more important than winning', due to the beautiful experiences and encouraged my fellow classmates to participate in essay competitions, poster presentations and making research proposals. It helped all of us to improve our communication skills and confidence levels. Our college recently started an 'Open Book Shelf' which inculcated the habit of reading in many students due to the diverse varieties of books present there. To 116

improve the literary skills of BMNites, we decided to have a t literary team to represent Dr.B.M.N. College at inter-collegiate level. Taking the 1st step towards achieving this objective,we arranged a public speaking workshop and a college level essay and elocution competition .This was more like a talent hunt. We now aim to conduct more workshops and competitions unearth the hidden talent of students. I personally believe that practice, hard work, determination and patience eventually lead us to success. We are truly blessed that Dr. B.M.N. College truly aspires to make each girl entering it step out as a strong independent woman who is confident to voice her views and isn't scared of failures. Rather she has the ability to rise above them learning through the experiences.

As, the student head of the literary committee I urge everyone to actively participate and through this, to shape their personality in a more efficient way.

------****------Meditation – A Gateway to Rejuvenation

In today's fast paced and modern lifestyle, we have forgotten the art of relaxation and to make time for ourselves.

Meditation is one powerful remedy that benefits our physical, mental and emotional health. The stress level has risen to such an extent that in order to survive peacefully, meditation is the need of the hour.

Today, our generation gets disturbed or hurt very easily. Though everyone has their own idea of rejuvenation, meditation as a technique from a young age will be helpful for us lifelong. People are not aware of the innumerable benefits of meditation. It brings a deep form of rest that works wonders. It increases the human capacity for managing stressful situations and provides increased energy for handling all aspects of daily living.

Besides spiritual benefits, meditation nourishes your mental, emotional and physical well being. It is important to maintain emotional balance, while also lowering stress. Meditation keeps us away from irritation, anger, hatred. Physically positive effects include better heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and oxygen rates, brain waves, temperature, and hormonal balance have also been observed. It decreases sleep disturbances, reduces fatigue, and brings peace and positivity. JAMA Medicine review journal has shown mindful meditation helps ease psychological stresses like anxiety, depression, and pain.

It is believed that around 25-30 thoughts per minute are generated in the mind, of which less than 10% are positive, while the rest are idle, wasteful or negative. Many of us think unnecessarily about a situation that is over, or some think negative even if the situation is positive and favourable. These thoughts drain away our energy. Every thought has its vibrations. Medical scientists say that every thought has its impact on 75 trillion cells in the body. Therefore, we should think positive even in the worst and most unfavourable situations because thought has energy.

Personally, I feel Meditation has changed my life. It provides a different perspective towards life, it keeps our mind composed, helps to concentrate not only in our studies, but also focus on day-to-day activities. Focus during meditation brings a sense of calm. It gives us power to face different situations, wisdom to 117

take decisions, & enhances one‟s way of thinking. Meditation aids in self-introspection, and recognizes your inner self. It helps to release negative thoughts.

Gautam Buddha has rightly said, “Meditation brings wisdom, lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward, and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom.”

- By - Ms. Reena Poptani (M.Sc. CND I) ------****------FEAR I want to know, Know each and everything which you fear, Fear of losing or regretting or the secrets you hold. Secrets, uncovered. Uncovered truths. Let me be at my worst and hold you on. Worst are the pieces that will scatter, Scatter my heart bit-by-bit, Hold me through those bits, And Let the darkness, Be the light in our lives, Forever. - Ms. Dhwani Machhi, TYBCA-II

------****------WHEN HOPE FADES Hope is Everything Faith fades Cause when hope fades Every single thing we expected fades. you‟ll be nothing So desperately annoying Nothing in thy mind So annoying that you realize, why? The mind becomes empty And you keep asking yourself, Emptiness turns into depression. Why am I like this? Hoping that everything is Why does every bad thing happen in my life? gonna be alright Why can‟t I just be normal? But no one can help you Then anxiety equips up on you quietly Cause your entire world is dark, Can‟t stop thinking negatively Self-doubt increases. Cause no matter how you comfort us Seems like everything isn‟t gonna be fine Our mind forgets what you‟ve Happiness fades said and what we‟ve heard. Hope fades Because we keep thinking about our past. Patience fades

How True Are These Health Myths?

Have you ever shared an amazing-sounding "fact" about health or the human body, only to be embarrassed later when you learn that that fact was wrong? It's not your fault! Believing such myths can lead to social embarrassment and most importantly, can be dangerous and unhealthy. To help, here is the list of common health myths and the reasons why they are purely fiction.

MYTH 1: EGGS ARE BAD FOR YOU Eating an egg or two a day doesn‟t raise the risk of heart disease in healthy people. In fact, new research suggests there is no link between eating lots of eggs and cholesterol imbalance or increased risk of heart problems and type 2 diabetes. Yes, the yolks have cholesterol, but for most of us, the amount found in any one food isn‟t as bad for you like the mix of fats from everything you eat. Additionally, eggs have nutrients, like omega-3s, that may lower the risk of heart disease.

MYTH 2: BEING COLD GIVES YOU A COLD Your grandma might have told you spending too much time in the cold air makes you sick. Well, that‟s not true! We become infected with cold viruses, known as "rhinoviruses," through physical contact or being in the same space as infected people. This is especially true if the infected person is coughing or sneezing, or if we have touched some of the same objects as that person. Another study found that healthy men who spent several hours in temperatures just above freezing had an increase in healthy, virus-fighting activity in their immune systems.

MYTH 3: CRACKING JOINTS CAUSES ARTHRITIS Cracking your joints does not cause arthritis. The sound might annoy people around you, but that‟s about all the harm it does. In fact, they generally report that individuals who crack their joints are at nearly the same risk of getting arthritis as those who have never cracked their joints. You may think bones or joints rub together to cause the noise, but that‟s not so. It results from a gas bubble that forms between the bones and “pops.” If you enjoy doing it, keep on. Studies show it doesn‟t cause or play a role in arthritis. If you are worried about what happens in your joints when you hear that sound, you may be reassured by the findings of a 2018 study.

MYTH 4: EATING OFTEN WILL BOOST YOUR METABOLISM Digestion does raise your metabolism a little, so many people believe that eating less food more often keeps your metabolism elevated. But the size of the meal matters, too. Fewer but larger meals mean larger spikes in metabolism. Also, some studies suggest that having smaller meals more often makes it harder to feel full, possibly leading to increased food intake. More to the point, the evidence shows that, given an equal amount of daily calories, the number of meals makes no difference in fat loss.

MYTH 5: COFFEE IS HARMFUL This is a common myth. These claims mainly blame caffeine as the problem and coffee has a lot of it. But it turns out that coffee actually has some great health benefits. Coffee is full of antioxidants. Moreover, it is one of the biggest sources in western diets. It has also been shown to lower the risk of depression, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer‟s and Parkinson's disease. In fact, some other studies have also shown it may increase your life expectancy! What other health myths have you heard? We, often, tend to agree based on what we see or hear through social media. However, it is essential to not believe everything that is spreading in the open quickly. If possible, we should always try to look at the facts beyond every speculation, as well as look for scientific studies to support the said theories.

Start practicing yoga, Yoga teaches you to be happy from the inside Don't say, mujhse nahi hoga And tells you not to care about the world outside. Because it's yoga that will free your mind from the Its roots originate from the Hindu culture of India sorrow, And now it's widespread in the US, Europe and And will give you inner peace. even Austria! Start with one asana today, and repeat the same In the beginning everyone loves Shavasana tomorrow, It's time for you to practice some yoga Later, you'll say, “Ma'am, one more asana please!” Because it's yoga that'll give you inner peace Because it's yoga that'll give you inner peace. . She always recited this poem in every class of hers, and always said, “Namaste is a philosophy of life that mixes the old world yogic principles with our modern can-do-attitude. It marries Namaste, the ancient yogic greeting which means „the light in me acknowledges the light in you' to the contemporary slang term Slay, which in our language means killing it at whatever you‟re working on. That‟s yogasm! The feeling of bliss when you‟re done working off your complete self on your yoga mat”, she informs the class. I chuckle a little, realizing that she does this to me everyday!

I remember being with her since I was born. She took me along to study, practice and sometimes even while eating! She had this crazy corner for yoga in herself, and kept reading about it whenever possible. “Yoga, an ancient cultural heritage of India, understands health and well being as a dynamic continuum of human nature 120

and not just a mere state to be attained and maintained,” she read. She conducted both practical and theory classes and always said “asanas, kriyas, mudras and bandhas- gently stretch and strengthen the musculoskeletal system in a healthy manner. They improve mobility and flexibility in different joints and groups of muscles. They also help to improve respiration, circulation, metabolism and digestion. On the other hand, swadhyaya, pranayama, pratyahara and dhyana stabilise emotional turmoil and relieve stress and mental fatigue.” She says that yoga encourages her to step back and have a meta-cognitive, objective view of her habits and behaviours and also helps her to cope better with situations which normally put her under strain. It helps her take a closer look at herself and it feels like talking to her own inner self. It helps her find the calm she doesn‟t find anywhere else. It challenges her physically, but with every passing day, she feels more stronger, flexible and mainly, confident! It helps her make time for herself and focus on herself more. However, my owner never let‟s me find time for myself! She takes me everywhere she goes, she flexes on me, sleeps over me, bends on me, and leaves me amazed everyday with the flexibility of her body. Now, let me tell you her secret! It‟s her diet along with her immense love for yoga. She says- “Mindful eating is a type of meditation.” This is because the nourishment of one‟s mind and emotions. She instructs her students to eat like a yogi, and include sattvic foods, i.e. vegetables, fruits, cow‟s ghee, legumes and whole grains. When seen with the eyes of a nutritionist, these foods are high in fibre, proteins and essential fats- all of which contribute to a healthy mind and a healthy body. However, my yogi owner says that such foods keep your body light and your mind clear-making it easier to meditate and thereby spreads positivity all around! Some studies have also proven that those who follow a sattvic diet and practice yoga reduce the chances of heart diseases by 87% and chances of cancers by 55%. Yoga helps as it is a tool for inner transformation. It makes a person calm and helps them to be positive towards life. “One learns to find happiness in tiny things" my owner says as she takes a theory class. She follows it with a practical class where she teaches the Tittibhasana (Insect or Firefly Pose)and the King Pigeon Pose (kapotasana) to the students today. I‟m shocked by her flexible body! If all this about yoga is true- I‟m a yoga fan now! She accepts that she isn‟t perfect, but she has the urge to try something new each day, and that‟s the level of confidence and positivity that she‟s achieved from yoga! I‟m so impressed! But oh, wait! Ouch! Something just hurt! Ouch! Oh no! I‟m torn from the side! I can hear her slightly. I‟m in her arms and she‟s looking towards me with concern filled in her eyes. She says she‟ll now change me. I‟ve grown old. “Wait! No! Please, I really enjoy your company! Don‟t change me!,” I said. But, I‟ve learnt so many things from her. She‟s helping me think positive now. I‟m so happy to have donated my entire life to an ancient culture which helps fight depression, anxiety and various health issues. I can now rest peacefully, knowing that I‟ve led my life for the good. Oh and, I remember one last thing my owner said, “Yoga is a journey of the self, through the self and for the self.” - Ms. Vidhi Mehta (MSc CND II)

INSTAGRAM IS A LIE

I was not addicted to Instagram. I only used it when I had time. Lunch time, break time, off time, no time, this time, that time. All the time. Some people are not able to sleep due to insomnia. I was not able to sleep due to Instagram. I logged out because I was bored, I logged in back after 5 minutes because I was bored. Wait don‟t we all do the same? Every night was a struggle between getting enough sleep and checking my Instagram feed. I was too busy. But with what? Obsessing over lifestyles of complete random strangers on Instagram. My day was a never ending stream of scrolling. Every time I scrolled through my feed it gave me a serious feeling of envy and hopelessness. If I saw the same picture on top of my feed, I used to keep on refreshing it. I saw my classmate constantly updating about her trip to Italy on Instagram which made my brain overload with the thought of why I can't travel to such cool places. I saw my ex posting a picture with a girl (in which they both looked like people in love cuddling). Then I did the next most obvious thing, I stalked her, whom I never met in real life for like an hour, envying how pretty she looked and how rich she was.

I felt like trash every time I compared myself with others. The human body is 90% water. So basically I was a cucumber but with anxiety and depression. Negative thoughts would zip around my head like fireflies in a jar, bumping into each other, blinking on and off. I was emotionally invested in Instagram like my whole life was dependent on it until one day after a mental breakdown when things got worse I decided for a "Social media cleanse". I tried to tame my addiction by deleting the app but then I just logged into my account through google. After multiple attempts of self-regulation (which of course failed), I felt the need to go offline and get life right so I finally decided to permanently delete my account and trust me it was the best decision I ever took in my entire existence. The first few weeks I kept questioning myself "What did I just do?" but as days passed by, it was worth everything. Literally everything. I woke up feeling way more relaxed and calm. I realised that FOMO isn't really a thing if you don't know what you are missing out. Life became much better and simpler. After blissful 15 months without Instagram I genuinely don't feel the need to return on Instagram. I don't need to know where Thomsina partied last weekend or what Kartik ate for breakfast this morning. I just simply don't feel the need to know all that. What I learned is, people tend to share only those moments on Instagram which they want you to see. You‟ll never find people on Instagram who‟ll be like "Yo wuddupp! Just woke up from my depression nap". Noo! Such things are considered to be uncool.

Social Media is designed to be addictive. You need to stop letting it control your emotions and thoughts. You need to accept who you are (unless you are a serial killer). Do whatever that makes you feel happy. Be better in your real life than your social media. Stop worrying about the picture your friend has tagged you in with no filters on it. Stop worrying about the number of likes and comments you received on your recent upload and start living life. You‟ll be surprised to find out so much about yourself you don‟t even know.

THE TONIGHT SHOW WITH BMNITES

Tia: interviewer Sia: Student of BMN College Director: LIGHTS CAMERA AND ACTION... Tia: Hello, lovely people. (audience cheering) I'm back with yet another exciting interview. Today we have with us Miss Sia from FYBSc Home Science. Hi Sia. Thank you for coming here. Sia: Thank you for inviting me Tia. I'm pleased to meet you. Tia: Sia, tell us something about yourself and why did you choose this college? Sia: I come from an ICSE college. Though I scored 80% in my 12 th boards, I was neither interested in medicine nor engineering. Rather I was inclined towards food and nutrition. Long story short, I wanted to do something in Food and nutrition field and here I am. Tia: Oh that's nice. So how have you liked this college, are enjoying it here? Sia: Erm.. It's pretty good. Yes, I have been enjoying it too. Tia: Is the environment of BMN different from your previous college?

Sia: Yes.(laughs) It is very different. In my previous college we were a batch of 17 students and therefore a pretty small group. Whereas here we have 131 students in one class. I hadn't seen or attended classes with such a large number of students before. I was completely surprised to see a sea of girls in a long class on the first day of college. Tia: Haha. That must have been a complete new experience for you. Why don't you describe your first day at BMN? Sia: I was late on the first day itself and the thought of the teacher scolding or giving punishment terrified me. But the teacher in the class allowed me to join in. On reaching the class I was baffled to see the class full of girls right from the first bench to the farthest corner of the class. After pacing almost the whole classroom I got an empty bench. Rest of the lecture I spend on examining each and every thing in the classroom from blackboard to benches and windows. Tia: Coming from an ICSE college, how difficult was it for you to adjust to this huge BMN environment? Sia: Yes, initially I thought that the class strength was too large and it seemed too crowded but eventually I got used to it and started making new friends and knowing my fellow classmates. Tia: Do you miss your college? And do you feel that your college was better than BMN? Sia: While I do miss my college and the bond I shared with my small group of college mates I feel I can't compare it with BMN. Both are different and are equally important to me. Both have given me valuable experiences. Tia: Do you think BMN would have been better if it was a co-ed college?

123

Sia: (laughs) While some of my classmates do feel that if we had boys on our campus it would spice up our daily lives but I like BMN the way it is. Because it being an all girl's college has many advantages for instance there is no bullying. And also an unbreakable bond is developed between the girls of our class. We help each other out and are always there for each other. So there's this peaceful environment which I think would not be peaceful if boys are involved. Tia: That's true (laughs).What type of exposure is your college giving and how are you utilizing it? Sia: BMN has opened a whole new world for me. In my school days I was not a social person and was deprived of any opportunity to identify my talent. Here at BMN I am exposed to many fests and college level competitions which forced me to come out of my shell and explore the world. I am participating in so many college competitions and activities and learning new skills. Tia: That's great.What would you say about the competition for the seats in your desired subject? Sia: Well, there's a cut-throat competition for Food Science specialisation. Almost about 50 percent of my classmates want it. So, I guess I really need to burn the midnight oil to book a seat for myself.

Tia: Oh that's a Herculean task indeed.From how far students come to BMN? And is it love for the subject that persuades you all? Sia: Girls come from various parts of Mumbai. There are girls who come from farther places like Virar, Badlapur and even Boisar. They travel for more than 4 hours daily to attend lectures. I feel the love and dedication for their required subjects/specialisation is what keeps them going. And also the need of meeting their buddies and taking selfies and the chai pe charcha in the canteen over a plate of samosa pav. Tia: (laughs) True. Sia would you like to tell something to your fellow BMNites? Sia: Enjoy your college. Attend all classes and participate in as many competitions as you can. And lastly always help each other and be each other‟s support system. Let's show everyone that we girls don't need boys and we are capable of taking the college to great heights (audience cheering loudly). Tia: Thank you Sia for speaking with us. We had a great time speaking to you. Sia: Yes, I too had a great time speaking to you Tia. Tia: All the best Sia for all your future endeavours. Enjoy your college life. Bye. Sia: Goodbye. (Sia leaves) Tia: That's all for today folks. Hope you enjoyed yourself. We'll be back with another exciting interview. Until then, sayonara!! Director: CUT.Wrap Up.

THE UNIVERSE BEHIND HER EYES

Her eyes seemed „ordinary‟ to me at first, unlike the ones I kept reading quotes about the other day. But then, I found out that she camouflaged her eyes with a mundane darkness not everyone knew about! When you sit with her under a perfect starry night you‟ll see that darkness slowly unravelling itself, those eyes shedding the camouflage they held for so long. And then you will notice how those „ordinary‟ pairs of eyes slowly turn into thousands of entangled galaxies of emotions all at once, touched with a hint of glitter and pearls of tears lapping that tiny spark. As chaotic as it sounds but what they write is no fiction. It‟s real, it‟s so surreal!

MY OLD HOUSE

I remember growing up in a tiny, shabby room with cracked ceilings and unplastered walls minimal or no power supply dull lights, screeching fans and an unfixable void. People who visited our home could barely imagine us living in this place where 10 people crammed against each other in a 700 square metre area. The kitchen was a mess no sunlight poured it's warmth, ever nor did a bird chirp: all I could hear was frog's ugly cacophony and untimely visits of the lizards. When my 5th sibling was born my father decided to rent a place or sell this home, bid in some savings and own a bigger place. No sooner did he think of it than the odds turned in his favour. We moved out still unsure of the welcoming by the world which waited on the other side of the door. The idea of anyone else acquiring our place always sent a chill down my spine but who could challenge baba's decision? Ever since, we never looked back at our past. Years went by, and now I stand at the same place which was once a shattering house is now a beautiful mansion- an air of melancholy swept in. The check in my hand is wavering in the wind But for now, I let myself drift in the echoing voices of the children and the beautiful lush greenery which once happened to be My house.
