DT driving

I have always been terrified of driving in downtown Toronto because of the craziness, the street cars, the sheer amount of traffic, one way routes and so many people. Thought I could never drive in downtown Toronto, but I did.

Its just a matter of pushing yourself and putting yourself out there. Some circumstances are challenging but bring out the best in you.

Goodbye 2013

Past year took a lot from me and gave me a lot too. It took away my standing, it took away things I loved, things I thought I will always have.

And somewhere, I decided to not give up.
I challenged myself to become a leader and became the president of a great organization.
I got asked to be the master of ceremony for a 200 + guests event and I did it and faced my stage fear yet again.
I was on radio and spoke my mind.
Travelling came knowing on my door twice and I said yes both times.
And now, I am living my worst fear of being alone..

And all this would not have been possible if my family, my parents did not believe in me.

I am so thankful for the time I got in the past year with my parents, it brought me so close to them.

And so, as we have all bid 2013 a goodbye, lend a ear, a hand and a shoulder to someone, reach out to someone out of the blue, you never know, they might be waiting for it all along.

And put up a good fight with life, it will eventually give in.

Be kind.

I met someone who had not played field hockey since quite a while. She was rusty but you could tell she was happy being back on the turf.

I found out that she would be unable to come to the mini tournament next week. I also found out why.


Our parents are such an integral part of our lives, they are our first heros and heroines. They are with us throughout, supporting, loving and caring for us. To see them go, to know that they have only few weeks to live, that is one of the hardest things to live, to feel.


Be kind and be gentle to people around you, you dont know what battle they are fighting today.

The incident

I want the best for you my friend, I know you think you are in deep trouble and are feeling guilty, just know that you did the best you could, and you did exactly what a good hearted person would do, you did not flee the scene but faced it with courage.

Life throws situations at us that we dont know how to deal with, that sometimes we ask why me....but know that if God gives you troubles, he gives you the strength too...

Your family, your friends and I am with you..and we will get through this...

I gotta stay strong, I gotta pray all along
I gotta have faith, I gotta not sway
I gotta trust myself, I gotta muster courage.

I gotta stay strong, I gotta pray all along.

I will post him at the back of my head in the ignore list. It is not his fault, it is mine. First mistake is acceptable but repeating it again is just foolishness.

I am tired of the fear that frequently engulfs me, I am tired of myself not being able to trust. The fear that gets tested again and again, either I can get back to reality or turn a blind eye to it. It is easy to live in illusion but it indeed takes courage to set things straight.

It is not fair, I cant be this selfish. The more I think, the more indecisive I become. I leave this to Almighty who has carved my fate uptil now...
