First up, I have to say that as a little girl I was enamoured with the doll. When I did not have a barbie and all I saw were fancy little ads of peaches and pink barbie in her lovely glowing gown and the little girls playing happily with it everytime I watched a cartoon.

May 24, 2014 / 2 Comments / Life Stories

I have been a blogger since 2004. In all this period, I have made lots of blogger friends, met a few of them but have never attended a full fledged blogger’s meet. Every time there would be a meet, I would have a clashing meeting, family event or work related travel! So this time when

Grey

On a work related road trip, I crossed a Creek Bridge yesterday. These are my thoughts from that moment… The first light of the day is falling on the earth and in this soft illumination the water and the sky were the same colour.  The exact same colour. A cool peaceful grey. Soft and almost

The Rude Guy Out There

April 26, 2014 / Leave a Comment / Life Stories / Life

This happened on the way to work a few days back. The car ahead of us stalled and since my auto was barely 4 inches away from the vehicle in front, there was no way we could carry on. Add to this the fact that another car behind me was also less than a foot

Of Being a Mother

April 24, 2014 / Leave a Comment / Motherhood / Children, Motherhood, Recycle

You know when women talk about motherhood, most mention how rewarding the experience is… how they love the hugs and kisses and all the tender moments you get to experience with your babies. What they do not mention though is the terrifying aspect of it. Oh no, I am not talking about the 24×7 duty

About Me

Ankita

Hi, I’m Ankita.

I started writing online in 2004, when blogs were still personal corners of the internet rather than content platforms. Over the years, the writing has evolved, but the instinct behind it has remained the same. Pay attention to small moments and follow them where they lead. Most of my posts begin that way and slowly unfold into reflections on work, motherhood, culture, memory and life in general. Now, I write about who we become while we’re busy being everything else.
