Khuramjari!


Greetings! Khuramjari!

An ordinary daughter to an extraordinary father and a powerhouse of her time, my mother. 
Lived 32 years on this planet. Achievements so far? Survived the world and it's ways and Positively Happy. Aspirations? Many.

Why am I here? Because I want to be here once again, Life has come full circle in ways and I am back to this blogging space after a gap of maybe 10 years. Life happened to me in between, not the usual ups and downs but zig-zag ('s), curves and speed breakers( which broke a few things apart from the speed!). 
Where am I? Right where I’m supposed to be at this point in my life. Have you heard of Imphal? Yes? Pat on the back!  This is where I was sent by the Universe (yes I believe in all that 'universe conspiring to help me' kind of theories) in the beginning of my journey, and now I'm here again after living in different parts of the country. And as I write this, I realize, there was always a part of me that wanted to be back here (the universe kept listening I guess!)

 What now?  I’m starting out, again, because it is always a good idea to just start. I'm starting this new platform to write. I'm starting, to fill in positivity in my life. And I’m starting to receive!

What next? I continue to write, about this city that’s mine, and anecdotes and stories from my life here.
I welcome you, whoever is reading this, with all my happy energies, and may it fill your life with happiness too!

Something is Steaming hot right now!

How did I find it? No it wasn’t ‘by chance’ on insta, or Facebook. Here’s the story… On one of our lunch hour meetings V and I decided to crash at a nearby café or restaurant for a quick bite. It was his find actually. On his way back from work, he would notice a tiny little place on the first floor of Hotel Kombirei, on Rims Road. What Timber did to me, I guess this little café did to him! And I couldn’t be gladder that we stepped into that café on a day when the weather was perfect. Dark clouds, a cool breeze spell perfect weather for me. So we climbed the stairs to what would soon become the stairway to “the most delicious comfort food’ heaven! Welcome to Steaming Mug! The décor is rustic with its blue-grey walls adorned with posters that prepare your mood. Planters are aplenty around the two floors which for a lover of greens is a delight. The seating is casual with a blend of wood and our ‘Phak (a kind of mat made of reed) cushions’ ( Kauna Phak) ) for added comfort. The...

Getting 're-assimilated' and how!

Imphal, you amaze me. You’re where modern and traditional blend smoothly, where bandhs and protests occur on one hand and festivals, music concerts, beauty pageants occur on the other. You’re where elopement is still an acceptable tradition, while the younger generation is moving leaps and bounds in terms of their career and ambitions. Where cycle rickshaws still thrive alongside, Audis and Mercedes. Where the young have beautifully embraced the traditional and yet are the fashion icons for the country. Where people are getting richer and more educated yet, poking our nose in others business is still a favorite pastime! You continue to amaze me every day. In the beginning. I felt like a person who had lost her way like the place is a little familiar yet I take time to find where I am. Being from a mixed cultural family ( my father is Meitei and my mother is Maharashtrian) didn’t help.   I admit, I had the best of both cultures growing up but I am confused as a grown up. Ha...
