Sowmya's Blog... The Voice of a Girl!!!

Fine arts are something where the head, hand and the heart of an individual can go together. This is not an exaggeration as an artist can truly find solace with a pencil and a piece of paper. They can go anywhere in the world even without stepping out of the room. World art day is the perfect time to celebrate the artist in every individual.   It is celebrated on the 15 th of April every year to commemorate the birth anniversary of one of the great artists the world has seen – Leonardo Da Vinci. “Every child is an artist… The problem is staying an artist when they grow up.” One of the wonderful quotes from Pablo Picasso. However, I as an individual believe that little interest in the art, extended support, attention to detail and a positive word of encouragement can help a child grow and remain artists throughout their life. This blog post is particularly written today to celebrate the artist within me and my family. It also contains my thoughts about helping a ch...

We live in a world where several things surrounding us influence our peaceful lives. For instance, the Virus - a tiny invisible particle has become so invincible today. It has a huge impact on the entire existence of mankind. It changed everything around us. The very busy world a month ago has now gone standstill.  It landed us into a kind of fear, which can best be expressed as the most unpleasant one.    The positive side… However, I get to see a few positive things happening even in this unhappy and extremely difficult situation. They include:   People getting a fair amount of time to spend with their loved ones. This can bridge any emerging or existing gaps in relationships. People trying to rework on their interests. For instance, someone like me trying to draw.   And most importantly - our planet Earth started gradually healing from the man-made ruckus. The undeniable fact:               ...

What is the favourite role play game in your childhood??? Are you thinking of an answer... if you ask me the same question, without a second thought my answer would be Teacher Teacher...            Most of them think that when there is nothing to do, people end up becoming teachers. But it is not the same with me. Deep down somewhere in my heart I always wanted to be a teacher and finally became one at TATVA , where a TEACHER is a TEACHER and not a PUPPET... Soon after my masters, I took up teaching in colleges... I worked with graduates and undergraduates. If success is measured by the scores of my students and their liking towards me, I was very successful. However, I got to taste the actual pleasure of teaching only after stepping into the huge campus of TATVA. In just one year I could proudly say that I unlearnt and re-learned several things and am still learning something or the other every day. Simply, I am enjoying the value-added learning pro...

I am always fond of the star-filled sky and the shining moon🌝. But the most fascinating thing to me since a child was how did the rabbit 🐇 reach the moon. every time I ask this question, I used to hear👂 different things about the same from my mommy and my grandma 👵. However, nothing really sounded convincing. And now it's my Samyu's turn to throw the same question. So, today I decided to make one such story for my little Samyu. In this process, I quickly grabbed some material and dressed up my sleeping Saanvi to spin a tale. Title: The Rabbit On The Moon Characters :  The little baby of the moon, blue monkey 🐒 , little boy, grey rabbit. Story:              One night.... the little baby of the moon🌝 felt lonely and decided to have a companion. She thought she should bring the kindest among all the creatures from earth. So she observed some of them and finally thought she should choose one among the happy fish, a human boy,...

                             HAPPY PARENTING# 2                      " To be in the memories of my children tomorrow, I believe in staying their lives today!!! " In this process, I believe in entertaining and engaging them all by myself rather than making them stick and stink with gadgets. Here's a post describing such emotion, I wish to cherish.      Though I am not too much towards watching TV, I do have a specific inclination towards cartoons and a few Disney characters. I grew up in the age of Popeye the spinach-eating sailor, Cinderella, and Snow White. No wonder, I used to adorn myself as those lovely characters enact them and enjoy them. Time flew and now it's my Sam's turn. And every day, I find her rendering to the looks of the lovely Ice Queen of Arendalle - Queen Elsa. No wonder she considers her little sister " Saanvi" th...

Kids like fantasy --- yes, my little Samyu loves them too... And so I decided to tell her one little tale by choosing a hyperbolic figure of speech, that explains impossibility. And it is “ When Pigs Fly” . The story is simply structured to develop positive thinking when someone throws a totally impossible challenge before you. In our little tale, my sleeping baby “Saanvi”, displays enough zeal to make the most unlikely thing work in her way. As a part of my sleeping baby series, I generally imagine and make one picture, but for this I imagined every single bit of the story, resulting in something like this👇. "When Pigs Can Fly!!!" Now I started spinning a tale around my sleeping Saanvi for my little Samyu, which went like this... Title of the story :  When pigs 🐷 fly!!! Characters: Baby girl👶, Daddy👱‍♂️, piggies 🐷, Captain Ted 🐻 Story:               Once upon a time, there lived a little baby girl👧. She is all bubbly an...

Well putting it the other way round - It is 10 days to go for my lovely Saanvi to enjoy her first birthday party and I seem so glad to share it with everyone reading this post. I was a bit stuck with some household chores all these days and could not really write anything in my blog .  But today I decided to take some time out click a picture of my little love and count on our blessings simply to make a memory. So this👇 is all I did.. . Well as always after clicking a picture of my Sleeping Saanvi, I decided to Spin a tale around the sleeping baby for my little Samyu (She seems to be growing fast now!!!). And this is what we ended up with. Title of the Story:   The Tiny Heart Gatherer... Character s: Elder sister👱‍♀️, younger sister👧 (Baby), Magical waters💦 and the little queenfish🐟.
