“Replace Fear with
Gratitude, and the whole world changes”
Terri Guillemets
The month of October began with few celebrations and in
between there was also a feeling low phase; wherein I was not feeling ok with
cough which seemed persistent, recurring and I did not want take any
antibiotics if not required, so tried another alternative; a home remedy.
Thanks to my friend Neomi who gave a very useful recipe to
deal with cough and it worked like magic for me. I am grateful to share this
here: here goes the details for the home made Kshayam i.e., (syrup).
2 cups water boil with 1 medium onion chopped+1 table spoon of
peppercorns + 1 table spoon jiggery+ 1 small piece thumb size ginger crushed.
Boil this cool strain and keep in fridge, keep making it hot
and have throughout the day.
I am also grateful for the opportunity to be involved in Life
Skill Education programme for 24 young Adolescent Girls [who are affected by HIV] in
collaboration with, Global Organization for Development [G.O.D.]. in this month
and it was such a pleasure interacting with them and being part of their
learning process which also enriched me and brought in some newness in my
routine, wherein I felt energetic at the end of the sessions.
I am also grateful and
inspired by David my husband who patiently and cheerfully visits his mother
every day and keeps a check on her well being; sometimes even cooks, feeds and
helps her by providing all the medical help required as she is unable to move
and manage independently.
Gratitude for the regular
friends and neighbours who stay in touch by their phone calls, visits, whatsapp and some times
surprise us with some snack or a trial recipe; are a great blessing in life,
they are reminders of Divine love for us.
For all the bloggers
who share their gratitude and keep me encouraged and motivated, throughout the
month and yes! Some times a whole year through…
Be Blessed & Be
Happy J
