A house of her own was her dream.

A place where she was free to wear and eat what she wished, where her creativity could flow unhindered and her choices weren’t limited by societal pressures. 

A safe haven she could come back to, where she wouldn’t be judged for...

I LOVE YOU

I LOVE YOU

Amidst the hum drum of life,

The simple, old parents kept waiting for their ‘busy’ children’s arrival till they passed away. The children, however, were ‘kind’ enough to put an emotional message-cum-tribute for their parents on Facebook.
