Once someone analyzed my blog posts for each year and told me, my writing has declined in frequency.
Once that someone asked me to write more and, sort of, became the motivation to write more.
Today, I noticed, I am back to the same frequency as I had fallen to.
Every day, I notice that Life, or something like that... is back to what it had become.
Anyway, don't go counting now. Just know that I am fine.
It's my superpower after all - I am always fine!
November!
The month of nostalgia for me. Well, every month is a month of nostalgia, if you are old enough. But even by my standards, November is more special than others. For this is the month that contains most of my sweetest (and some saddest) memories.
It is the month of promotions. The month of writing CAT. The month of ruining CAT and cracking CAT. And then, the month of changing the track of life forever.
The month where food palette changed to include Chowk's Makkhan. The month where dew drops started to increase. The month where the school times changed for an extra 15-minute nap.
This was the month when Meha met an accident and we thrashed the car that hit her. Sounds scary? It was. But that was also the beginning of an 11-year long love-story of Gunjoo and Meha (which culminated in their marriage btw)!! Not everyone in my life-story is sad, you see!
It is also the month of most of my birthday treats with friends because October was always lost in Dashehra-Diwali vacations. The month of ice-cream statue of liberty, the month of picnics and group photos, the month of sitting beside the rivers or in sunlight or below stars, all for no reason.
It is the month of the first kiss and the biggest break-up, both of which incidentally happened on the same date, years apart. November is the month of some of the most-treasured peoples' birthdays and little wonder, the most-treasured ones hurt the most too.
And November is the month of the sweetest hint of pinkish-winters that I love. While everything of the above is lost for long now, I am thankful for those winters still somewhere round the corner. And for those memories of the Sweet November!!!
