To soar like an eagle, you need to experience the process of adulting.At around 40’s, every eagle has to make a choice either death or to undergo a painful process. This process extends its life for another 30 years. This adulting stage involves the painful task of secluding itself, knocking out its beak, and plucking […]
It was just another ordinary day, yet it became a captivating conversation with my daughter. A simple outing became a small girl’s day filled with intriguing discussions. As we awaited our order at a local eatery, my daughter asked, “If you could have one superpower, what would it be?” After contemplating, I shared, “I would […]

We all know that the progress India has made in this area of digital payments has led to a transformation worldwide, mainly because of two very impactful […]
I am smiling to myself right now because I am back from probably what was the best 2 hours spent with someone who I’ve had a wonderful time with…a time when the food you ordered and the people around you didn’t matter – what was in focus was just you and the other person, so […]

I have numerous cherished moments in my life, and selecting just one for this article was quite perplexing. I contemplated choosing a moment that exuded cuteness, beauty, and innocence. During the journey of growing up, both boys and girls desire acceptance and validation from the opposite sex. It is inherent in human beings, a quality […]
Sometimes, in His wisdom, God urges us to find serenity and take a brief respite. However, as we often overlook His gentle guidance, He employs a gentle force to bring about the calmness we require. Although one might perceive it as convenient to involve God in every aspect, I strive to adopt His perspective […]
However, I experienced a sense of restlessness and lack of focus. It bothered me not because of the absence of earnings but due to the feeling of aimlessly treading forward.
In today’s fast-paced world, distractions from smartphones and digital devices can make it challenging for individuals to fully focus and give their attention to others in face-to-face interactions. Recognizing the deteriorating power of listening, I have started a movement called “I Listen” on my counselling and coaching profile, aimed at creating a culture of compassionate […]

I enjoyed reading this interesting post, thank you. It seems that over the years, especially since the 90s, it has become more common for it to be a demonstration of millitary power? Compare the folk dancers and lama dancers to the entertainment in later years – fighter jets, tanks, and Armed Forces motorcycle shows. I wonder if t coincides with foreign tensions.

Thank you for taking time out to read and comment my dear. I am glad you liked it. Our defence has always been a vital part of our republic day parade as our medals are handed out on that day as well. As for the fighter jets and tanks, they are a way of our people to honour our forces that sacrifice their family life and comforts for our safety. I think they deserve to be hombres more often. 26th of January is a day for India to celebrate its home rule, I don’t reckon that it’s used as a power show to enemy nations. Keep smiling and happy blogging 😊 🌹 🙏 do visit us again

Wow, brilliant post and great find of pics, especially those pics in 1950’s 60’s and 70’s and 80’s. My dad and uncle once attended republic day function in nation’s capital, guess in the year 1998 and told its nothing short of spectacular. Of course I got many toys from them, coz it’s mandatory that if any goes outstation, they should bring toys for me. Wonderful post and Jai Hind.

Thank you for the wonderful comment Sri. I am happy to know this little trivia about you dear. You too should see the parade once with your own eyes, it sure is a spectacle. Though I agree that the charm of 60’s and 70’s can’t be caught but we have to make do, it still has the lingering essence of legends like Nehru and Shastri Ji. As for toys, worry not, I won’t let you return without them, I promise. It was great to see your comment, you made my day 😊🌹🤘🏻
