When I was young, I didn’t think too much about what I would look like when I was 52. But here I is. ;-) However, I sure did have visions of what my life would be like. I was going to work as a pediatrician, marry a handsome man, have 2.5 kids and no dog […]

Call it a midlife crisis, but the past few months have been different for me. Not bad different. Just different different. I celebrated a birthday….and so did my son. He turned seventeen! I can’t think of a more fun and exciting season of life. And earlier this year, that same son got his driver’s license. […]
Years ago, if someone asked me where I was from, I would just say “Dallas” but then I’d always get the follow-up question…“No. Where are you REALLY from?” So, to avoid that conversation, I now give everyone who asks a brief but all-encompassing bio…“I am Indian but I was born in the United States.” On […]

I don’t know what the teen years were like for you, but mine were not memorable. I was quite insecure and completely disliked being a teenager. Needless to say, telling others about God or thoughts about God’s plan for my life were not anywhere in the forefront of my mind. In fact, I always thought […]
An Indian girl walks into a Chick-Fil-A… (Isn’t this how all great stories start out?) In case you didn’t figure it out already, I am that Indian girl and I was at Chick-Fil-A this past weekend…on a Saturday of course, because we all know they are closed on Sunday (which is cool but not cool when […]
Have you ever looked at someone else and wished you could live like they did? Like, maybe a celebrity or someone you personally know? They seem to dress right, know the right people, and are popular. At work today, a colleague mentioned how she wanted to be best friends with a particular celebrity couple…just for […]
Tough Times
This year has been a challenging journey for me. There have been unexpected detours that felt overwhelming and stressful. Truthfully, they left me feeling weary. Some days all I could see was everything that had
