24 Karat Magic In The Air


After the scorching heat of October, we have realized to appreciate and welcome the change in weather. As the festive season is approaching, one can feel the wave of energy and enthusiasm everywhere. Houses are getting cleaned, streets are lit, hawkers and shopkeepers are geared up with colourful rangolis, lanterns, clothes and lots of stuff. Online shopping sites are coming up with new fashion statements and a range of offers. Aroma of diverse food items has filled the air.Children are relieved from their hectic schedules and parents have got a breathing space. People of all age groups are enjoying chatting over the topics of preparation of the festive season.

What makes this time so special?Is it because of food items or lights or new clothes or holidays? None of these … there is no novelty in any of the reasons as it’s a part of our routine lifestyle throughout the year. I guess it is the feeling that everyone looks forward to! The feeling of being lively and enjoying the festive vibes in the air. The best part is every person is involved in some or the other task. The feeling of being involved is essential for our smooth ongoing routine. It keeps us tied to someone and one can sense the belongingness.This season also marks get-togethers, fun and laughter, moments to cherish; may it be with family, relatives or friends. Such gatherings help us to move out of our monotonous routines and spend time with our near and dear ones. The current trend of capturing moments in pictures and selfies makes it all the more memorable. There is one more reason for many to get excited and that is planning for holidays. Such trips help to enhance the bonding and strengthen their faith in each other.Some people take this outing as an opening to strike a chord with nature.

Overall it is the time to be YOU! The masks that we wear at different points, come out during this time. You enjoy being with your own likes and dislikes, strengths and challenges and start feeling good about yourself.Being active and enthusiastic is the outcome of our positive feelings and the right mindset. So, without analysing too much, grab this opportunity to find your inner self! Engage yourself into the preparation of the festive season and feel the ‘24 Karat Magic’ in the air!

Wishing you all a very Happy Diwali and compliments of the upcoming season!!

Take That Pause…

The Human race is currently facing a strange situation of being locked down due to the COVID-19 crisis. A virus measuring an insignificant size has brought the whole world to a standstill. While marching towards the 21st century with the globe at his fingertips, man has never imagined this vulnerability. Maybe, this is the way of nature to remind him the purpose of life and teach him the right way of living it!! We Mumbaikars are so used to planning our day to the minute that the race against time has become our daily ritual. Our routines are such that there are no time gaps and all is set to the tee not giving us any opportunity to think of any spare time. Malls, theatres, restaurants, transport, etc. are easily available for our entertainment and luxury. We like to make our holidays or even the smallest weekends special by being away from home. We always complain that we don’t get enough time with our family as we are busy in our work schedules, tours, conferences and so on. ...

Independence Day 2020

  Warm wishes to everyone on our 74 th Independence Day! The word Independence, freedom brings a lot of energy and patriotic spirit in us. Today while we see freedom from a spectrum of the corona pandemic, everyone feels confined inside their own boundaries. But to look at it positively, we have all received our fair share of constructive time for ourselves and for our near and dear ones. I am sure each one of us has peeped into their mind during this free time and realized so many things that could be done differently. We always believed that luxury was the rare, the expensive, the exclusive, and everything that seemed beyond our reach. But now, we have realized that luxury was those small little things that we did not know how to value; and now that they are gone, we miss them so dearly. Luxury is being healthy and not stepping into a hospital. Luxury is going out on the streets and breathing without wearing a mask. Luxury is meeting our family and friends with no restrictio...

The Ripple Effect

The New Year 2020 has begun with a new vision and new hopes. It is time to think broad, accept diversity, reach out to people and unfold life with contentment. I came across a story about a young girl, who had a different perspective to lead her life. She was an excellent dancer and felt ecstasy each time she tapped her feet to pulsating music. When asked about her choice of career, she had no clue but she always had a dream of extending her dancing talent to visually impaired children. She developed a small team and approached many schools for the blind to share her idea but unfortunately struggled to convince many of them. Even after getting a breakthrough, she had to face numerous challenges. One of them being able to make a visually impaired child get the gist of the song, using other sensory organs, and translate them into dance steps. Imagine the plight of making a child dance on rain songs even though he has not seen a ray of light. She also faced technical difficult...
