Hug and Kiss ‘em & Hold ‘em close to you!

From the moment I conceived, it was my fantasy to have a super tactile bond with my child after he/she would be born (for the longest possible time, I felt it would be a girl!). After my son was born, things became different and the first three months were extremely painful feeding him or holding him thanks to my C-section stitches. So all maternal feelings vanished into thin air and all I could think was sleep or having “me-time”. There was hardly a chance to cuddle up with him! Post partum depression had hit me big time and me not being able to calm down a screaming infant had dipped my morale too. Motherhood was nothing like I had imagined it would be! Besides I was terrified that my son would not accept me if I didn’t develop a bond early on. Of course, that did not happen. It was a mom’s fear that had spoken. After he entered the infamous toddler phase, I became the quintessential “villain” for my son – the usual don’t do this and that. Yet again, my dreams of becoming...

Choose the right monitor for your PC...

How many of you have read computer monitor reviews before buying one? Do you compare prices of computer monitors on websites? A large percentage of people have been found to do extensive surveys before making a purchase of the device. But what about those who haven’t done? Reviews of any gadget or device give a detailed insight on its resolution, dimensions, image quality, price, colors, camera (if it’s a mobile phone or a tablet) and finally the market ratings. Similarly, a computer monitor is a vital component of a PC or personal computer. Without the monitor, the computer is incomplete. So once you read computer monitors reviews, you are less likely to make a wrong choice while choosing between a Samsung or Dell monitor. First, check what type of monitor you want. This is because each brand specializes in providing different types of monitors. For instance, there are seven types of Samsung computer monitors available. Samsung offers a wide range of computer monitors like LCD, L...

Lockdown diaries: Kuchh Aur Naye Band kisse

Chaaron taraf band khidkiyaan, sunsaan raaste, Hawayein chal rahi thi, patte bhi gire pedon se, Maidaano mein char rahe kuch jaanwar, Chidiyan chehek rahe the. Jo awaazein kabhi motor ki shor mein ghul gaye the, aaj sabhi zinda huye. Band gharon mein jaan aayi, Bachchon ki shorgul, cooker ki seetiyan, Kahin thahakon ki awaaz goonji. Chai ke pyaale, puraane gupshup aur naashte ki mehek har jagah chhayi. Khidkiyon se jhaankte huye kuchh chehre, Ankhon mein aas lagaye baithe, Kab ye virus chala jaaye, kab hum azaad panchhi ho Bebasi ki leher mein ummeed bhi thi shaamil. Bachhon ki khushiyan jaise garmi ki chuttiyan aa gayi, Ghar mein khel kood, FM par gaane, TV par Mahabharat aur Ramayan ka laut aana, Wahi chutkule, wahi kehkahe, wahi masti ki leher Wah! Bachpan ke din laut aaye! Par iss baar chuttiyan lambi lagti hain, Mann mein khushi bhi, asmanjas bhi, Ghar mein surakshit raho, virus se bachke raho: yahi naara hai desh ka! Khushiyan fir se laut aayengi, ummeed hai y...
