Here is a round-up of last week, with a very BIG THANK YOU to all participants. You not only kept the weekly challenge going, but enriched my life with your perspectives, and a validation of some views that I hold. It was a journey, not a challenge, and the experience will remain with me. Last … Continue reading Weekly Round up of #Week 10
He who invented the law of gravity had not been blessed with the pull from the top. The apple was imbalanced with the weight of tyrannical branches and unthinking leaves. They swayed in obedience to the branch which in turn followed the wind. The trunk acknowledged the wisdom of the roots, but … Continue reading Anti Gravity
We are in the tenth and last week of the Exploration Challenge. It is needless to say that I enjoyed the interactions immensely. And this is a fairly simple one. Just read the four quotes in the pic, and write whatever it inspires. The piece you write can be a quote, prose, fiction, a form … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge # Week 10
What would I say to Harvey Weinstein? Nothing. That species only deserves to be ignored. What would I say to the guys I trust and respect? Again, nothing. They must have done something to earn the respect and trust. I will continue to enjoy casual and careless chatter with them, without fear of repercussions. I … Continue reading What?
I am unable to get Harvey Weinstein and #MeToo off my mind. He is not the first, nor will he be the last controversial figure. Trust is certainly on the decline. Arguments and counter-arguments will follow, and the media will get content without much effort. What and how do we teach our daughters and sons … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 9

Some come forward to say that they are in the group for relaxation and entertainment, and horrible things do not happen to everybody. Why talk about it, or … Continue reading On the Other Side of Pain
Hi, all I guess the challenge is increasing in complexity, but I love the ease with which you handle it. It displays an ability to see your core and react from that point. Encouraging! There are no rules this week. Not that there were many before. I just reproduce an excerpt from a conversation with … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 8
Our mental maps come from experience, and beliefs ingrained from childhood. I never had an opportunity to question their validity. There was no need to do that. Honesty is a virtue. Nobody thinks about contesting the concept. Why should I? I saw a girl in dishevelled state running across the street. She turned towards the … Continue reading Updating the Map
We have reached Week 7, and this pulls me towards the significance of numbers. It is said that it takes 40 days to form a habit. Well, the number varies from 21 to 66 in different beliefs, but I will assume 40. Why? 6 weeks have 42 days, and I have crossed the threshold of … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 7
