Valentine?-- Pamper day!

-
Hello everyone,

How was Valentine's Day to everyone? Over the years the idea of valentine's day has changed a lot! It is more of showing off love and actually meaning it. My birthday is on the 13th of February just a day before V-Day! I've always had cakes on my birthday but now as I grow old just with the numbers I felt like I don't want a cake this year so I had a small family dinner at a fancy restaurant after I came back from work! It was different from what I usually do with my friends and treating them meals and getting gifts. Didn't get any materialistic gift that day but I felt happy to be with family and having dinner out of home no troubles for Mom and nice quality time with my family!
I am telling you this because the day I was born is valentine's day eve, many lovers must have high expectation from one and another and trying hard to meet each other's expectation. There's tension and expectation at the same time. Couples will be trying to spend time together then on the other hand there will be single expecting a proposal. Looking at a brighter side we are celebrating love. Love not only in the sense of couple and relationships but overall love for all. But this world has changed the idea of this day. One sees obvious that when a male and female is walking on the streets or having a snack in a restaurant that they are in relationship. Despite the age difference they assume them to be couple. The idea of this day is change for sure.

I don't know what I wanted to say above but it was just what came to mind and I just typed them down. Anyway for me it was a new start of a new year since it was after my birthday. I didn't have any plans so I just went to work like usual and later in the afternoon pampered myself with steam and sauna bath. It was a cold day! Posted a Selfie with caption "no plans". But after work while I was heading home I came across my old work place a book shop so I planned to end the day there. I took some Eclaires Buns in a box as if I was buying it for my date and then surprised them. The boss there was a book publisher so it was obvious that he had good network with the authors and many good people so I have been thinking no matter what trouble my life has been giving me I've been placed in good places in my journey of my life and I just need to connect the dots like Steve Job Said!

Hope everyone is able to see life positively and appreciate the gift!

That Feeling

I had never thought I would feel this way. This is the feeling I don't wanna feel the one I hate the most. I wondered when I see some people, Some people that are close to me. If they ever felt this way. I thought, if I were them I would feel this way What feeling am I talking about? The feeling when your heart feels heavy. The feeling when you can't say anything to anyone. The feeling when you get into a cocoon. Especially with me, a feeling where I shut down myself. Even for the very close ones. They call it a silent treatment. But for me this is a system close down. I take my time with this. I don't care how long. This feeling is the feeling of doing nothing.  Feeling of having no purpose. Feeling of Burden. Breaks my heart, but it's the feeling I go through. Very rarely But very often.

Pick and Drop

The last time he came was only for few days...I don't remember exactly if it was with his mother for a wedding reception or for some other sorts alone. However I do remember it was only for few days, almost a week. Almost! This fall he was here for a long time. Didn't know how long was 'long time'. He needed to escape the screeching hot lands of Terai and needed cool (dusty) air of Kathmandu Valley. He had asked me to look for hotels, lodges or resorts, if I had to suggest, to get some chill air. I was very happy with the news of him coming to Ktm. After his arrival, I still hadn't fixed any escape from the valley. And where to we go in the end? Same old warm wooden cottage in the midst of Nagarkot hill. Our very old gateway. The place is nice and cozy, with lots of fun memories with family and friends...I would one day make the same one room wooden cottage with attached bathroom for myself in future. But I'd definitely add a TV in the room, unlike the place

That Stare!

We walk down the road very casually, not very often but on the days when we feel like going outing or may be a day out with friends. Those are the days when we dress up in so called "western clothes". For some it may be shorts and for some it may be a dress. There will be tank tops, skirts and these days there are crop shirt, grunge pant the classic, sleeveless and tube tops. We see it everywhere.  Girls wearing them and rocking them on the streets, malls and parties. But for some reason people on the streets aren't able to welcome it in all. That stare we get on the streets when we are walking with friends or may be alone is very awkward. We wear these outfits comfortably before we get out of the house but the stare we get once we are out makes it all awkward. That guy coming towards me has is eyes on my not so much of boobsies. That uncle on the bike with his wife behind him stared at my legs. Now I walk pass a tea shop and the group of worthless people who spend
