Lower Expectations, Lesser Frustrations
As a mini reunion approaches, I reflect upon my learnings about lowering one’s expectations in order to avoid frustrations. Do share your thoughts :).
Reunion
A Wedding and A Reunion
On Dec 17th, my school mate, Ravindra’s son got married. The KVAFA gang got together for a reunion at the wedding.
Rains in our Destiny !
I didn’t join the mini reunion in Shillong in the week of June 22 due to rains, but that entire week it rained heavily in Delhi NCR. Destiny?
This Day, That Year !
Remembering what we did on this day Dec 29 in 2015 and six years later, today ! Thanking Google photos for making this post possible :):)

Two days of the Thanksgiving weekend spent amongst friends, going back and forth between behaving as kids in school and being responsible leaders that we … Read more
A reunion that almost didn’t happen !
Nearly six months back Bhagya asked all of us if we had time to get together for a reunion in June 2017 as she was coming over from the US for a family wedding. I was the first one to say yes, little knowing what was in store for us as 2017 dawned. I had … Read more
