Sporting me!
You know how it is, one fine day, you end up playing some sport and realize how fit you really are. It may be a company sports event or maybe a club sports day that lets you know your fitness level.

‘Eating the Earth’!
 Eating meat, dairy and eggs threatens our planet.You use much less land and water if you eat crops directly. Animals use most of the protein they eat to live, not 'grow' meat. So eating meat adds to water shortages, forest clearing, soil damage, use of oil-based pesticides - and climate change. "By 2050 the world's livestock will be consuming as m...  more...

Remembering my thirties
         The thirties were turbulent times for me. I think it kind of holds true for many women. At around this age, those of us  married and with little kids, begin to harbour a sense of  un-nameable apprehension, of the future being just endless routine,  between the pressures of the workplace (if employed) and domestic chores, back  at home.
