Kudos to parents who work at home trying to juggle work and family life! While it sounds like a dream to stay at home and not have to prepare early each workday to go to the office, working at home with kids is not a walk in the park. In fact, it is even more challenging to manage your...
We all make mistakes. There was a moment when I felt like a total failure and everything I did, nothing good came out of it. It did not go well and I feel like piling rocks of errors into a wall.
As time passed, I realized that there is wisdom I can get out of the blunders I did before....
It started with the words, 'The doctor was right. You are irresponsible.' I do not dare share who blurted out those words when I became pregnant at the age of 19. But, such a statement made a hole in my heart, a sting I bear every day after more than 16 years of hearing them.

There is no such thing as the perfect parent. You can only find parents who are trying their best for their children. Things may not always work as they expect and sometimes ending up in a fiasco than what they want it to be. But, with all the hullabaloo, clutter, spills, and tears, there is always the extra effort,...
Is your Love Tough Enough to Help Me?“Tunnels of darkness penetrate my mind, and soon, little to no sun amidst the narrowness I find.The more I succumb to such abyss,The more of my strength I dismiss.Pain and uncertainty skirted every border in my head.To no avail of asylum or consolation I am led.Dull, such excruciating numbness, an ill-founded agony.Grips me,...
Pregnancy is one of the least things we expect from being a teenager. But, it happens. Many teenagers are waking up one morning finding themselves in front of a positive pregnancy test. It is devastating, and it creates doubt and fear in them.
