It’s been almost 6 months that I have opened my own blog.

I guess I have been thinking a lot during these 6 months, what am I missing, what is that I want to write about ? I guess the idea of a blog was to write about the little things in life, but I guess I wanted to write a thriller, fiction or a love story lol and kept loosing interest.

So what am I going to write about now ? I guess I will stick to the little things, every little thing I come across and think about or read or watch will be written from now on.

What are these little things! I guess we are all so engrossed in our complex smart phone and technology dominated world that we have stopped looking at the simple things, feeling the little things, like the first time your daughter sleeps on your shoulder watching a movie or cartoon. I have seen people react to the same little situation differently, I have seen people who make the kid sleep next to them during the whole time they watch the movie till the movie says THE END stop your television. I have seen some carrying the kid over to their bed cover them with blanket and come back as soon as possible to continue with the movie.

I have realized after my brief stint away from my kids for 2 years away from home, I missed these little things. I have encouraged my kids to be vocal about whatever they want to say given them the freedom to talk instead of creating boundaries due to their age and the parents are always right. So this one day I was my usual watching some interesting documentary on TV, my 3.5 year old daughter wanted to sit next to me and watch it and was asking question every time she sees a new person on the screen talking, I was a little irritated with her interrogation in the beginning but when I saw her relating to the documentary story along I was very happy that she is actually not asking some stupid question to get my attention, she was actually interested to watch it and understand, half way into the program she calls me two times and says can we watch it again ? I said ya sure it will repeat again sometime in the channel or we can find it on internet, she said ok and I continued watching the program but after 10 mins realized that the questions have stopped and there was absolute silence next to me, she fell asleep leaning onto my hand I saw her and saw how cute and silent she was sleeping I muted the TV and took her to bed and tucked her into the blanket with the intension to come back and watch it, she wakes up and asks can also sleep we can watch it together next time as we can watch it on internet and she couldn’t manage to stop her sleep and hence slept. I felt this is what I was missing this exact moment as what was worth more than a million bucks and all the time on the planet.  I realized watching her sleep till I dozed off into a pleasant sleep was such a memorable thing. I had to face the wrath of wify in the morning for not switching off the television before going to bed :D.

I guess its more of a complicated thing to talk about because today language has been taken over by emoticons, short text not emotions and text.

On this note, I encourage you all to get back into life enjoy the little things in life. The little things are more valuable and more memorable than anything else.

So Enjoy Life and the little things!!
