Eventful!

Hello again, Sam here!

The week was indeed very joyful and on a brighter note. It was great cause of the events including festive gatherings and outings. Although the week went fast but it was worth every day, you will know more about this further in the blog including some learnings.

The starting 2 days of the good went casually, my sister had came on Monday it was a surprise visit and also her birthday was coming on Wednesday, both the days were good and also we had planned to customize the cake themed on Friends tv show. On Tuesday night I placed the ordered for customized cake. The same night we had gone to book Ganpati idol from a local sculptor as we do it every year. So here comes the birthday night everything was going great, I had came from office and we were ready to celebrate but as soon as she cut the cake and started serving we realized the cake quality wasn't that great I was disappointed cause it was planned but we managed to eat the actual cake and kept aside the upper part of the cake cause of quality issues. Thursday was Rakshabandan and its more likely a mini festival where everyone has family gatherings and I thoroughly enjoyed that day as it was after 2 years post pandemic we had such large family gathering at granny's house. Also, as ritual of rakshabandan sister's get money in return after tying rakhi and it was the first time I gave my own money to sister's and its a great feeling tbh. Friday went on a lighter note cause everyone had left to their home cause of work and even I had office that day.

Now comes the weekend, Saturday was also very casual and Sunday I had went to trekking near matheran woke up that day at 4 am (I was resisting for trip cause I was having cold flu, but still I went > ) and it was worth waking cause the view was very pleasant and beautiful.

Moving on to some weekly learnings :

1) Our time on earth is limited , so live a life worth remembering.

2) Don't get too serious, just let every experience be a lesson.

Lastly, We( especially younger generations) often tend to avoid family gatherings, attend them at least sometimes cause the memories you make and experiences you have are worth remembering when you get older and approach happiness nostalgically.

Nonetheless, life's still great.

Thank you for reading till here <3

Bye,

Sam
