I caught a shimmer !!!

Catch a falling shimmer and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day !

A letter to my younger self - just thoughts without a painting !

A letter to my younger self :

Listen to your heart
Don’t let the clamour of do-s and don’t -s overwhelm you
Be yourself; You know yourself best of all
Better than society at large definitely
Better than many good intentioned loved ones,
Family and friends, both.
Better than your peers, and your competitors too.
Just reach deep within and find your inner strength.

Trust yourself
Take time to ponder, to dream
Dream of things which seem impossible
Dream of what tugs on your heartstrings, gentle though it be
Take time to love
Take time to try things and find out what you love
And don’t you stop till you do.
When you find it, the best part of your journey begins.

Follow your dream, dear heart
For you answer more to yourself
When all is said and done,
Than all the other voices, demanding though they be:
Did you do what you were meant to do
In all the days that were granted you?
If you did, then perhaps, among all your struggles
I hope you found your treasure – a filling of your soul.

Painting fish :)


It is always a pleasure to see the finished painting (-- it was a plain white canvas just some time ago -) - and feel that I can touch the water --- maybe.

It gives me a full heart and my day just became a little bit brighter. Enjoy the day, everyone, and Happy Woman's Day !
