Back again…!

Hello all! I want to apologize to all my readers and followers for this radio silence over the past 12 months. Some of you sent me messages and as promised I am back again in my writing zone! Your messages are very encouraging, thank you. I am happy that you are able to put up with my writings!

It all started with my illness last spring and before I knew it we were in summer. I always spend my free time doing yard work during summers so my writing had to take a back seat. My son finally started regular school in Fall (Yeah!) One thing led to another and I spent all of December in India! It was very heartening to visit my family and see old friends. Especially after all the grief and stress that the delta variant had brought upon everyone.

Overall 2021 was not a great year. I had written a very optimistic blog at the end of 2020 and again in the spring of 2021. But as they say, man proposes and God disposes. Or during this pandemic times should I say Covid-19 disposes?

My heart goes out to everyone who lost a dear one in 2021. Personally, I lost a dear uncle in India and a friend’s husband in US. Pretty much every single acquaintance of mine, and especially from India, knew at least one friend or relative or neighbor who succumbed to the covid-19 delta variant. May the souls of those we lost rest in peace and may those they left behind find the strength to deal with their losses and move on. And may the light shine upon the anti vaxers around the world so they help us curb this pandemic!

2022 has started with the Omicron variant which has thankfully been milder. But now we have an uncalled for war going on in Ukraine! I can’t wait for a really positive development that the entire world can rejoice to!! I am hopeful that it will happen sometime soon…!
