#MothersDay - A message from Deepika

By Shipra Trivedi
Mummaa.. is the word I hear while getting daily chores done with the help of my maid. My little one wakes up from his afternoon sleep and as a ritual, he should see my face when he wakes up or else he becomes cranky. Yes, I m a mother of my 8 months old son.I took a break from my work to take care of him as I was not willing to leave him in daycare until he turns a year old.

Now I get ample of time to take care of my baby and enjoy his milestones. Since the day I became a mother I suddenly felt so much love and respect for MY Mother. How much pain she bore to bring me into this world! How she must have felt on becoming a mother (I am her eldest child)! Coincidentally I and my mother share the same date for enjoying this great feeling of motherhood (yeah..! I and my son have the same birth date)  

 And day by day as I see my little one growing and demanding for his needs, I wonder how my mother managed taking care of her in-laws, husband and her 4 children (my 2 sisters and a brother) at the same time without any house help.


Seriously, hats off to her for all hard work and determination she put in. Despite being not so educated herself, she made sure her kids complete their higher studies with good marks. She always encouraged and helped us all by herself, ALONE. ALONE because my father met with an accident and left us when I was in 8th standard. 

 But she continued doing the best for her kids. She is my hero in life and I will look up to her for my problems.

 I love you MOM to the moon and back..

Worshiping Krishna.. वसुदॆव सुतं दॆवं कंस चाणूर मर्दनम्..

By Shipra Trivedi
Shri Krishna Ashtakam is a worshiping prayer devoted to Lord  Krishna praising his powers and glory. Ashtakam means a prayer which contains eight hymns(slokas). Each hymn or verse is composed of four phrases, each describing one quality or great acts of Sri Krishna. And, each sloka is composed in two lines. It is believed that krishnashtakam lyrics possess great powers. Here is the English translation of this holy verse : वसुदॆव सुतं दॆवं कंस चाणूर मर्दनम् । दॆवकी परमानन्दं कृष्णं वन्दॆ जगद्गुरुम् ॥1॥ Vasudeva Sutam Devam Kansa Chanura Mardanam... Devaki Paramanandam Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum.. I pay my tribute to the teacher of this world Krishna, who is the son of Vasudev, who killed Kansa and Chanura and who is the source of great joy to Devaki. अतसी पुष्प सङ्काशं हार नूपुर शॊभितम् ।रत्न कङ्कण कॆयूरं कृष्णं वन्दॆ जगद्गुरुम् ॥ |2| Atasi Pushpa Sankasham Hara Nupura Shobhitam..Ratna Kankana Keyuram Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum... I salute to the teacher of this world Krishna,

#TheWomanThatIAm #RRxMM I am not the woman who..

By Shipra Trivedi
I am not the mother who.. I am not the mother who stayed longer with her newborn, I resumed office when he was barely 2 months old. I am not the mother who witnessed each of my kid's milestones, I got to know them when being told. I am not the mother who could tell breastfeeding stories, my child is a formula-fed gold. I am not the mother who keeps the house spotless, I let my son scatter toys and go overbold. I am not the mother who manages a detailed list for parenting chores, I often keep my to-dos on hold. I am not the mother whom people admire, I hear people calling me selfish and cold. ALSO I am a doting mother who tries to juggle between family and work every other minute.  I am a mother who watches silly cartoons with my boy.  I am a mother who repeatedly tells the same story every night.  I am a mother who cooks my son's favorite food every week.  And I am also a mother who is the closest person in my son's life! I am not the wife wh

My 'Invisible' Accomplishments #DecadeHop #RRxMM

By Shipra Trivedi
As we entered 2020, through this post I am trying to contemplate the coolest, most daring, and most significant feats of my life during the last decade. Now the more I regress my memory, the more I feel there are two types of achievements or accomplishments that I can ponder upon; Visible and Invisible. Visible ones are those that I can count on my finger like a parrot and others can nod also. I got specs on, married to a not-so-romantic man, produced a baby, started writing and added good 17 kgs in my body volume (I was 50 in 2011). However, there are many invisible accomplishments too that either I know silently or very few can assert. From 2011 to 2019, Who am I now From a coy soul to now an outspoken woman, the trek was not easy. I achieved it. From being a no-makeup girl to now a lipstick swatches observer, the transition was tough. But it happened. And from being a sweet hater to now a sweet lover, the change was mysterious yet occurred. And now I can die for Gulab Jamuns.
