...and the respect grew...

Laura's challenges are always challenging :) and this week’s challenge is no less. “Use the Non Dominatrix” i.e. the non-dominant hand to create the ZIA.
No problem. Easy Peasy.

My left hand trembled and halted and lines squiggled and wiggled as I tried to control the pen and with the struggles the realization set in how dreadful it must be for my uncle-in-law whose hands at the age of 80, trembled with genetic related dis-order and for whom even the simple task of putting the glass on the table or writing a simple note is so challenging.
But sugary coffee or salty food, there is no complaining, no stopping.

As I struggled to finish the tile, my compassion and respect for the "seniors" or "Methuselah" went up another notch.

PS: I added this one later - Inspired by LeeAnn ZIA for this week
...and this one just for fun!!

"String Theory v. VIII: Moebius Trip"

Laura's son Artoo's has Moebius disorder and to spread awareness this week's ZIA is to use the MS logo as a string. Moebius Syndrome which is a congenital nerve disorder affecting cranial VI and VII nerves controlling the lateral movement of the face.
The Moebius Syndrome awarness day was on Jan 24th.

Out of boredom started as a fun blog, a space where I tangled and crafted and wrote the silliest in me,  but there was still things that was left unsaid.  A sense of unsatisfactory had set in...the mojo had gone foggy...
As I was sharing this with Dilip bhai, my brother in law, he gave me an insight, more like branding, packaging and that conversation chrysalid to Reflection n more.
I leave you with this video and hope that you will join me in my journey of reflection

I wish

I wish I was a writer
Wish I could pen-down all that's in my mind
Express the new week. This new year. Brought
Music friends dance family flying kite kids
Shopping eating
Panic calls only leading to movies :)
Meeting old friends and even older friends
Tooth fairies n Santa
Birthdays n boys
Daughter and awards
No particular order
Just a feeling of blessness ( if ever there was ever a word like that)
