What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?
I will start my blog with an anecdote of my childhood. I would have been 7 or 8 and thus have a faint memory of it. My father was telling me a story and I kept on interrupting him. Finally he gave up and started telling me a story about a girl named Surekha ( That’s me obviously 😁). Subtly my father poked me and made fun of my quirky , impatient, my way or highway nature . I enjoyed the story and since then can detach myself from self and have this ability of self deprecation.

This ability of mine makes me not take myself or my life very seriously. It doesn’t mean I have not had goals or that I am not an ambitious person, but I can self critic myself and then a realisation dawns on me whether achieving goals by any means is really worth it?

I can laugh at my marginal geographical sense which makes me go round and round to find even a straight forward address. The less said about my driving skills it’s better otherwise this blog will also turn out like my driving expedition on the road 😄

This ability of understanding my flaws , and making fun of it has made my life a roller coaster and enjoyable. And I want it to be with me forever on a daily basis.

I try this, although at times I need practice. It’s a very nice thing to do, I do joke around often and you can’t let yourself get you down. By being able to laugh at yourself makes life more fun😊

Laughing at oneself I feel makes us more accepting and empathetic towards others .
