This time i have these digitally created berries. Don't ask the name as I just picked colours and tried blending to get a fruit. If you find any resemblance to any do share. 🙂 I am loving this tiring drawing style at the moment. Lets see what happens next... As for todays Quote "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” ―Theodore Roosevelt.

Not, Just a Jar

By Ira -

“Colors turned my monochrome living into a Vibgyor, the chits made me believe in me and the jar helped me believe that there is more to life than what meets the eye,” Dia told the reporter.

The journalist sat enthralled by the petite lady who beat death at its game and survived the odds to share her story with the world.

The journalist smiled and gave an inquisitive glance around. Sensing her thoughts Dia continued, “That one moment when I stood facing death I realized that my material possession was of no use. I promised to be a minimalist in another life.”

    It often takes an extreme event, loss or near loss to open our eyes to what is truly important, what really matters in life.
    I'm with Dia! The older I get, the more I like the idea of minimalist living!
    Glad you joined in the SSS this week :)

      That is the irony, we realize the importance of things only when we don't have them or are on the verge of losing them.

Gift

 “Where are you taking me?”  Riddhi asked annoyed with him for having forgotten to wish her, leave alone give the gift she had desired for on their first anniversary, an early morning breakfast with him and the sunrise in the background as the new resort in their city claimed. “Endurance my dear is the best companion at the moment,”   Atul replied with a kidding note in his voice. “Hope he has no despicable ideas,”   she recollected the news about the suicide by a young, much in love couple. In addition, she remembered him talking about bringing some   Project   to its conclusion.   “Was it she?”

“Mamma is Santa visiting us this year?” asked little Rosy. “Maybe”, answered her mother while she was busy sewing the red cloth. All this while Rosy sat there dreaming about the ‘man in red’ who visited every child in the world except her, the reindeers who could light up her home, only if they paid her a short visit, about the gifts that she had so longed for since he left a void in their lives.
