"Love Beyond Time"
It was a sunny summer evening, and I was busy fumbling with my old stuff. As I rummaged through our old trunk, a beautiful and huge flower printed photo album caught my eye. Its was a new album i bought last year for my family pictures which seemed to whisper stories of some kind of maharaja era. As I delicately opened the album i felt like i'm in 90's , there were tones of pictures of my father looking like a damnn hero of his outfits(i always though he could have worked for indian cinema),i too saw some pictures of my mother (always looking submissive),and then my grandparents ...they definitely looked like maharaja and maharani of that time, my grandfather with a big rifle in his hand(he was an army man) and my grandmother with tones and tones of gold jewellery ( rajput family dowry obsession perks),and then my eyes fell on a beautiful picture....a wave of nostalgia washed over me. Childhood memories came flooding back, and my eyes landed on a familiar face - my grandmother's...and she was holding me!!( the tiny me hehe).

Introduction This was meant to be a comic observation of the standard of my writing and the various responses and non-responses that I observe on Vocal and further afield, but it is really a confessional piece, though you may find things that make you laugh or smile.

The Fog
My third treatment is around the corner and my mind is literally deteriorating. Chemo brain or Chemo fog is very much like pregnancy brain, but I feel like its a lot worse. However, I wouldn’t know because I’ve never had a pregnancy to last to the point of getting pregnancy brain. You get sensitive to smells, get dizzy easy, black out, however I feel like the worst thing is I’m struggling with communication it seems.

Confessions of a Liar
So, it's confession time. While I am sure that most people that follow my scribblings, poetic etchings and stories will not be so fickle to stop subscribing and reading because of this, there is the potential that you might. I have made peace with that.

The Rebellious Spirit of a Brown Girl. Top Story - February 2025.
I belong to India where a lot of expectations are placed on brown girls. It entails carrying the burden of the "good girl" stereotype all the time. Society expects me to prioritize other people's viewpoints over my own, frequently at the expense of my goals and ambitions. It is rebellion to defend myself. Even if it costs me to respect people who are trying to destroy my life, I must keep quiet and listen. A girl already had so much pressure the day she was born. But what about the boys? Brown girls are always instructed to sit properly, not laugh loudly, not talk to boys and always be docile and soft. Why is a girl's gender the requirement to clean the house or be in the kitchen?
