Travel - housekeeping hack

Traveling on holidays are more fun than official trips. But what a headache it can give when home is smelly and has cocroches running around as you enter closed home?

Well, after multiple attempts this holiday i have tried, tested and sucessfully worked.

Here are some simple home tips i would like to share.

1. Turmeric power to the rescue.
Put sufficient turmeric powder in all openings at home, the day you step outside.
Openings here include sink at kitchen upto drain of washing machine and so on.

This helps cocroches to ants or anything at bay.
(While such entrant tels me i am blessed in abundance of stuff at home)

If you are traveling for more than a week or so -

2. One week before start date keep spraying some organic clenser at all openings.

3. Pile up all soft or coushins into a cornor and cover them up in big cloth. This big cloth can be washed at a go instead of vacuuming dust of beds and sofa. 

4. Place camphour bars in each room. These you might get in few organic stores. They remove odour naturally and nutrelise the space. 

If you have any other natural tips on this please add on.

Happy touring and holidaying with entire family while home breaths afresh.

When life becomes transactional

Image
Next moment has always been unpredictable, unfortunately till we foresee a physical demise in front of our own eyes particularly a loved one, understanding this concept is generally tough. Having said about unpredictability, today in #covid situation faced all over the world, we all are aware of the fact more clearly; what is the true meaning of unpredictability. However, I could not stop myself today but to pen this down about life turned transactional. What is the true dictionary meaning of transactional? Means a give and take or take and give. Eg, mostly it was referred only for financial reasons since you pay for a product or service and that's called a transaction. But why I am I saying life itself has become transactional? Are we buying and selling amongst our own kith and kin? The non cash transactions are flooded,  You greet me I will greet you You smile at me I will smile at you You hit me I will hit you back You gifted me so I have to gift you back You fed me so I have to

Mentor

At every stage of our life we have a mentor and as humans we seek out to one. There is no age factor and all one needs to be qualified with is experience or the relevant knowledge for the same. I am proud to say that my younger sister has also been one, but it’s when she always tells me about my spellings and the uncanny communication I recollect one such mentor of my life. There were many challenges I faced at work place – one was; my superiors been compared with a shop floor entrant (me) by my super seniors, that I am sure hits their ego. She called me one day on one of the emails I had circulated to a small group internally, asked me to tell her the reason why I wrote such an email. She patiently listened to it completely and asked me to read the email loudly right on her desk that I had sent. I found that funny and at the same time curious why she wanted me to do it. On reading it I realized that what I intended did not come out on that email as clearly the way I explained to her.

Oneness it is - Gratitude to Nature

Saluting to the gratitude journey, that I yet again pen down last weeks thoughts on gratitude to nature than on pen and paper. While we were asked to write about another 5 areas to be grateful to mother nature. I must admit it goes way beyond 5. Nature, who are you? Nature where are you?                Nature, you are the mother of mothers Nature you are the womb of creation Nature you are the miracle called life Nature you are in one and all. Nature without you there is no existence in this physical dimension Life giver and nurturer Yin and yang Sun and moon Heat and cold Man and woman Trees and insects flowers and bees earth and ether water and fire and the list may go on, without one the other cannot exist.    I can see you as me and me as you dear nature. Without you i dont exist and without me you dont. So i wonder why we humans call nature that we observe through our senses only? Am i not part of this nature by itself? Easy way to understand from science text books is, we breathe
