Musings

Hi! I am Lakshmi. I am always at a loss when some one asks me to introduce myself. Where do I start? The quest for my identity has been a long one. It is not over by any long shot. I will try though.

I like to call myself a writer, a chef, a professional. I also like to think of myself as a daughter, a wife and an aunt. Each of these would describe me well and completely yet are inadequate. I like to read. I love long conversations. I enjoy nature. I hate conflicts. I am known to say “Sorry!” easily. I love my family and I am blessed with an incredibly rich set of friends. I love thinking about my past and the person it has made of me now. I think life is profound and beauty is in the simple things around us. I am an optimist and a romantic.

I dream of writing a book someday. A memoir perhaps? I am forever thinking about what the future holds. I am still discovering my belief system. There is so much that intrigues me.

I could go on and on but this should give you a gist of what you can find on this blog. Snapshots of my life. Sneak peaks into my brain. Mushy posts. Movie reviews. School stories. Nostalgia trips. Travel tales. Teeny bits of social activism and feminist streaks.
