Hello Dearies,
I am
back to writing after having this blog page closed for public viewing for last
10 days.
If
you have missed me and my blogs then I am really sorry 😓 And you deserve an
explanation.
So here is why I have been missing from
action:
You see, it was one of those days. I
decided to go out in the evening and it started raining elephants and hippos! Not using the correct phrase of "raining cats
and dogs" so you get the magnitude of the rains!!
As luck would have it, I had gloriously
forgotten my raincoat at home 🙍 I had carried it all summer in my bag pack anticipating
this very day. Bummer, I forgot to carry that bag pack. Reached home fully drenched. News flashed all over TV: Flood like situation in my city. It was a rough day because my head (soaking up all the water from the furious rains) was
heavy, my mind wandering with many items on my to-do list.
On top of that, I had a leaking roof which
kept flooding my bedroom and which needed cleaning up frequently. But is that a
reason enough to stop using whatsapp?? No.. I chatted with multiple people on
multiple topics in different windows and managing my chores like a superwoman 😤 Or so I thought about myself!
11 pm: The day was successfully done. I was
sooo grateful to crash the bed 😹
2 am: Woke up very weirdly and felt wide
awake. So what better way to kill time than to check all the whatsapp msgs.
2.05 am: Sh** Sh** Sh**! I can't believe my
eyes 😰 When did this happen? How did this happen?? Now what??
I was not sure if I was feeling hot flushes
because of catching fever or because of the acute embarrassment I was feeling.
For no rhyme or reason, I saw that I had erroneously shared this link of my blog page on a professional HR whatsapp group I am part
of. A group which follows a strict, no
forward policy. A group which only discusses serious HR issues/policies etc. A
group where I am an invisible silent spectator because of having a lack of anything
worthwhile to contribute.
And the first time I share something on
this group is this, 'Hola Diaries' (Gosh!! Neither does the address sound intelligent nor professional) 🙍😭
So my stressful mind did the best it could
think of. I deleted my whatsapp ping (which by then was seen by few group
members). It could not be deleted for all but to make me feel better, I deleted
it from my phone none the less. I felt like a guilty offender. So to be doubly
sure, none of the members read my blog - I made this blog page private too.
Hopefully those who read the blog, I pray
that by now, they have forgotten all about it. Indifference is a favourable
response in this case.
You may ask, why this sharp retreating reaction
from my end? Am I not proud of my blogs?
On the contrary, I am. However it is, good, bad or ugly, it's my baby. And I am fiercely protective about who it is exposed to.
P.S: Even after my hiatus, if you are a
reader from that whatsapp group, please note, you are not supposed to be here. But wait, if by chance you like my blogs, please feel free to comment or write to me. Every one on this earth likes to hear good things about their babies ☺💖
