Frustrating... My second entry to the Curation Duo #1 hosted by both @wakeupkitty and @heartbeat1515 . I have no idea what genre of poetry this is but it is my personal expression of what is happening and it is frustrating. @heartbeat1515 mentioned in her post that: "*For* *Curation Duo #1**, I would like to read your* ***thoughts, feelings or experiences*** *about the* ***current pandemic, Covid-19*** ***through poetry.***"…

These cutie koalas were in the Healesville Sanctuary, located at Healesville in rural Victoria, Australia. It was a wonderful experience seeing these animals being taken care of well at the sanctuary. When in in Australia, it is a must to visit their zoos or wildlife parks or sanctuaries like this one.

One of my favourite kitchen tools, the mortar and pestle. Although an electric blender is available and would have made things much quicker, I find the action and flavours from pounding accentuates the taste and smell.

It is not always easy to find the drive to do the things that you wanted to do. Lots of ideas in the head but... Distraction is one of the culprits.

Hope your day is good wherever you are!

Motivation, detoured When @JonicaBradley wrote this in her article “Writing Prompt #2: Motivation”: “I once read somewhere that people are not unmotivated.

The price of freedom I grew up in a very strict environment, and my childhood was full of restraints and constraints to a point that I was afraid to do many things. There were many rules to follow and I was a timid one. One memory that lies vividly in my mind was how afraid I was to eat one of my favourite snacks – chocolates and sweets or anything sweet. Chocolates were usually kept in the fridge for fear of ants lurking around. Chocolates were off limits and can only be…

Things do look different with googlyeyes. They change the outlook of things and they make the heart happy looking at them, and they give life to objects. :) Although I think these fellas look afraid to be eaten soon. I do like Ferrero Rocher. Slurrppp.

In darkness, not I switched off the lights and counted till ten, Pitch black at first, a little less after that, I closed my eyes and counted again, I opened my eyes and saw darkness then, But in moments later, I saw again. Darkness is frightening most times. When I think of darkness, the thought of it or even reading or saying the word itself gives me the creeps. But the truth is, it is in darkness that we can hear better, we listen better, our other senses are more attuned…

I was worried that my turmeric plant would not make it as the leaves were turning yellow. Did it get too much sun, too little sun, did I give it too much water, too little water? But when I saw this little baby curling out, a new leaf means life continues and my turmeric plant is still alive and growing. Phew!
