My answers -
1. I have exprienced both heartbreaks and failures. I will just like to explain the heartbreak and leave the failure part. My grandmother died last year, it was the first death I saw in my life. Her eyes, her hold on my hand, everything haunts me till date. It shook me, I am still not over it.

2. I am a nature-lover! What excites me the most is the tinge of sky that keeps on changing shades. Sometimes it's orange, at times it's red, and many a times it's a mix of many many colours. I love seeing the clouds changing shapes, all of this makes me feel at peace. 😊

3. Someone who has influenced my life is my dad. I have always admired the quality of falling down again and again but getting back up. My father taught me this quality from what happened in his life. I try to take it from him and stand up after every obstacle in my life.

1. Have you ever exprienced a heartbreak/failure in your personal or professional life that has shaken you from within? You can choose to explain or answer in Yes/No.

Yes for heartbreak. No for failure in my professional life. Yes for failure in my personal life. Heartbreak when the person who was most important to me or so I thought mind you it was a platonic relationship but the relationship in which I gave so so so much of myself i fact everything I had to give for many years and the person who I thought I knew best broke off one fine day suddenly right out of the blue through email and went awol. So closure was not possible. This broke my trust completely in people and in relationships and in my own judgment of people. And the funniest part is that we were not romantically linked as in physically romantically. It was all mind, spirit, ideas, etc. etc. and I ended up realizing that I never really knew this person!!!😭

2. What aspect of Nature excites you? The birds, the trees, the river etc.? You can explain your choices if you want :)

EVERY aspect of nature enthralls me. I am fascinated by nature. I respect, adore nature. Feel the real me when I am amidst nature. Personal favourite, the hills and jungles. Love observing flora and fauna.

3. Who has influenced your life the most? It can be an historical figure, your parents, a book, a movie! Whatever has influenced your life in making you the person you are now.

My mother but in a reverse manner. My mother is a great lady, a woman of high principles. A very religious traditional lady. She unfortunately sees life in black and white and sits on high moral ground. I was brought up like that. So many topics were taboo. So learnt most things in a tough manner. Had so many shocks while discovering the real life. Everything was a shock including periods. Lol. I see life only in shades of gray. I never pass value judgments. I am ultramodern in my thoughts. I am spiritual but not religious. So though I admire my mother a lot I am her opposite!!
Hahaha try to figure that out!! I am crazy right??

Aayushi as usual such interesting questions and in each of your get to know the members threads I have been brutally honest. Usually I am very honest but I think most of the credit goes to you because you make me want to be brutally honest.
Love you girl. You have a beautiful soul I sense that and yes I want this to be a daily thread provided of course that it's not too taxing on you!!

Please see how much of your time gets sucked by this and decide.
Whatever you decide am with you fully completely and will always look forward to your questions!🤗

1) Oh I did experience a heartbreak a pretty bad one 😆 You know that story. I guess that's why I keep justifying Anu.
Failure well I've had those too, I wasn't always the brilliant student, I feel I am a failure as the daughter my parents deserve.

2) Nature ummm...I thing every aspect of it absolutely beautiful ❤️
But the one part of nature which I find extremely interesting, are human beings, they're so complex, they have so many layers to them, feelings, love, principles and at the same time hate,lust, selfishness, how can the same race have so many shades in their characters. I know it's kinda weird to answer this way 😆
But humans are a part of the nature right? I guess 😆

3) My dad influences me big time, he's like my role model, I look up to him, My dad had nothing, my grandfather passed away when my dad was just eleven, my grandmom is illiterate and none of my relatives showed up. He worked so hard all alone, doing jobs while studying, he learnt to deal with every situation and now he's one of the directors of a really successful software company. I have immense respect for him, he is a feminist and wants me to be successful and doesn't want anyone to be in my grandmom's position ever, he donates as much of money as possible to get women educated. God! I think I can write a book on him.

1) heartbreak yes, professional failure yes, personal failure yes.
but the middle one didnt really shake me up. 1n 3 r linked..

2) i love every aspect. mostly a place that has pure soulful solitude. trees and mountains n rivers. if i could say it in one word i would say ladakh. ❤️

3) pata nahi. i dont think its one person. everyone u meet in life teaches u or preaches u or praises u or consoles u. so its a mix based on wat u observe and take in and give out. strangely though people's opinion abt me has never affected me (that includes praises)

nice questions aayushi 😳

1. No for romantic heartbreak, many yes for emotional non-romantic heartbreaks. Multiple yes for professional setbacks.

2. Everything about nature. I love nature more than himans.

3. No a single person but the cumulative experience life has provided me. I believe bad experiences shape you more than good ones.

Coming to today's questions then!

Questions ---

Not sure.

2. What aspect of Nature excites you? The birds, the trees, the river etc.? You can explain your choices if you want :)

I love Nature especially love to observe Trees, watching & feeling Rain drops/ Rain, Night Sky with Stars & Full Moon, Chirping of Birds and Green beauty

3. Who has influenced your life the most? It can be an historical figure, your parents, a book, a movie! Whatever has influenced your life in making you the person you are now.

My Grandfather, my Mom's Dad had a great influence on me. I treated him more like a Godfather and he is my angel to this day. I also like my Grandmother, My Mom's mother for imbibing good stories and morals/values/procedures etc & also from my dad's side.

I Love my Parents & they have highly influenced me in a good / positive way.

I used to admire my Childhood Best Friend as he was always a Good Boy / Studious / Disciplined / had Good Values and Morals. I loved staring at my Childhood Best Friend's Lunchbox everyday. He used to bring maggie with vegetables & other yummy food, whereas my food was always simple during school time. We used to have same likes/dislikes & we used to admire each other without knowing that we were admiring. Also, My Sister for her Fashion sense/Smartness.



Happy answering! 😊

P.s. I have replied to every comment on previous 5 threads! 😳
