Beyond dream – a wonderful reality :)

We are both very excited for 2 important reasons:

1) Tarun’s parents (my in-laws) are visiting from India for a few months. We are so excited and can’t help giggling all the time! For us, it is important to be surrounded and blessed by loved ones (family) all the time, especially since we are so far away from everyone. This is the time to catch up, share laughter, tears, more laughter, seek blessings and advice that keeps both of us grounded in life. I don’t know for others, but for us, with the blessings of our parents and families, life seems blissful and worth living 🙂 A pillar of support and guidance from elders should play a very important role in our life?s.

2) Our new home is almost ready to move into. What a great timing! Ma and papa are also very excited. It would be a first moving experience in US for them, as well as for me.

Tarun is a seasoned mover. He has moved to many locations in US since arriving here more than 2 years ago. “Oh no! Packing again?” I can’t stomach the idea of the packing-moving-unpacking process. “Honey, please provide your expertise in this matter?”.

QotD: Everybody Change!

If you could get everyone in the world to change their behavior in one way, what would you have them do differently?

I would make all the buggers drive less. People drive aimlessly here and there and we have war surrounding oil issues.

Oil is still in abundance yet we are still fighting. Think about 30 years from now where there would be very less of oil supply and increase in deadly weapons.

So I want people to drive as less as possible 🙂

But I can’t write anymore now since I am going out for a drive with my wife 🙂

Favorite way to stay warm on a cold autumn day

Nothing is better than cuddling with my favorite book and a cuppa tea with mint, while enjoying a cold autumn day.

QotD: Hey, I Was Just A Kid!

What did you do as a child that you feel guilty about even to this day?

While growing up, my family raised baby chickens, correct term ‘chicks’ in our backyard at my hometown in Malaysia. I was 5 or 6 years old when I started adoring chicks. I played endlessly and sometimes refuse to eat my meals unless the chicks ate with me as well. I know it sounds weird, but I was so young at that time *blush*.

One morning, my dad took me to the local supermarket to get some meat from our butcher. I was so excited when we arrived. I saw chicks are sold in the market as well. But I was more intrigued with the variety of colors on the furry feathers of the chicks. I was so anxious to own all of them. Heck, dad had to buy for me. I got them home and immediately try to get the colored chicks acquainted with the dull ones.

Over few days, it became a dull routine playing the same games with the baby chicks. So, I cooked up a strange idea (don’t forget, I was only 5 years old at that time), and decided to bury the baby chicks in the ground. I only bury till it’s neck, meaning the baby chicks head were sticking out on the ground. And I continued playing with the baby chicks till my mom came and rescued them, the same day, not to worry. At that time, I thought they looked so adorable with colorful fur and beak, pecking away in the afternoon dust. Now, whenever I see a baby chick, I feel so guilty of what I did when I was a child. I wish I could turn back the time. Please forgive me baby chicks. I have repent from my mistakes.
