Sorry Yashita!! This was the tag I was supposed to do wayyy back but somehow a lot of other things came up inbetween…but here I am all set to do the tag and hopefully it’ll be up in the blog today!
The tag says I have to list out five things I love about my body and myself…
Ohkkkkk!! I love talking and writing about myself. And I’ve done a lot of that in my posts here in my space but this one’s not an easy tag. Not that I am very pessimistic about myself (anyone who knows me well enough will tell u that I’m quite an optimist in all respects!) but I am also my biggest critic! So to sit here and talk about what I love about my body (ahem!) and myself is going to be a lil tough!!
We’ll start with body: P (in random order)
1. My lips…my smile! Though I’m not really sure if people around me fe
el that way…I did have couple of friends tell me that I have a nice smile and a compliment I got way back makes me wanna smile some more :) … no not what you’re thinking (though yeah that’s a definite plus ;-)!!)! What I’m talking about is friend’s telling me that any shade of lipstick or gloss looked good on me but my lips without make up had a distinct shape and needed none of the added color…hmmm!! :-)))
2. My eyes! Okk my eyes are too small and look carefully (@ pic) and you’ll see that I have inherited my father’s eyes...they’re not symmetrical! When I smile, they disappear!! So why do I like them? Well because my eyes don’t lie even when I try to…my eyes are truly the mirror to my soul. If I am uneasy I will avert my eyes because I know they give away more than I wish to…
3. Writing about the first two was easy…Now I have to thinkkkk…lol! Ok I love my legs…not that they’re anything fabulous…shapely and long etc etc. They’re normal and okk…but well we’re talking about what I love about my body right so yes I love my legs! I am blessed not to have two left feet…I love to dance and I can dance and I am learning dance…*sigh*…it’s my greatest stress buster!
4. My hands…I can’t talk without using my hands. They play a huge part in the way I express myself. And I’m a very demonstrative person…if I wanna hug, I will. If I wanna hold your hand I will…That’s me! I don’t think and show I care…I just do! Oh yes, I love henna in my hands...see the pic! :-)
5. Last but not the least is my hair…ummm…I’ve been treating it really shabbily in recent times starting with a disastrous hair cut after Vedant was born. But that was coz I wanted a no fuss hair cut considering the fact that I hardly slept or got anytime for myself for the first couple of months after he came along! But soon after I tried desperately to get it back to a decent length and cut. And then I experimented with colors…not that I had any grey to cover but well, I thot it would be fun…so colored it at home. Finally last year I got it straightened although I have straight hair…hmmmpfhhh! I told you I am one restless soul! :P But anyway now I’m ok with it…It’s not as lustrous and nice as it was before I got pregnant but it’s one definite positive feature about me…love it the way it is now :-)
Pheww….!! You have no clue how long I took to get all that done..! Now about what I love about myself…ofcourse I’d club all of the above in the first point (that’s allowed right??)…so that leaves me with 4 more to go…hmmmmm:-)
1. All of the above … 5 things I love about my body!
2. My family…that includes my extended family too (with a few exceptions!) and the friends I’ve made coz they do define the kind of person I’ve come to be…the Ishita you know now. The daughter, the sister, the wife, the mommy and the friend that I am.
3. And continuing from the last point, I love being a mommy! I may not be the perfect mom…and I know I am not! But I love being one…it’s the best feeling and it’s just so me!!!
4. I don’t hold on to grudges. I get mad…upset but I let go of negativity in time and try to get back with whoever I might’ve had a tiff with. I learnt this the hard way coz there’s a friend I lost to a lot of misunderstanding and lack of communication. Now when I think back, I feel I was stupid and naïve but you know what they say about it getting too late to go back and fix things…well, that’s true and I know it best! So now I never leave it for later…
5. My ability to connect with people and express myself! I can be quite brash when I want to and very diplomatic when I need to be. But I will not lead u on and be someone I am not.
And that’s it!!!
Who do I tag? Yashita tagged Kesh but I’m not really sure if she’s done this one? If u haven’t, please take it up Keshi :-). Also gotta tag some more of you here…Rajbir, Uttara, John, Suchi, Sanjay, Amy, Lalitha … If u guys haven’t done this already, then please do it!!! :-)
