I was thinking of you and your posts from 2017 or so when trying to watch Snowdrop in the U.S. this weekend. No success so far. Maybe I will try the VPN thing that some websites suggested.
Thank you Viswa for nominating this thought-provoking snippet by @jayasala42 Ma'am: Is Every One Unique? Like you said, all aspects of the topic have been neatly covered in a flawless manner. I can only add one of my favorite quotes: "Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.” ― Margaret Mead
@Rihana I am here to nominate @girvani's Seeking A Closure .... Pandemic created so much of havoc in so many families but unable to bid goodbye to the parents is the most difficult one of all. It brought tears into my eyes when she walked through what she had been through. I am glad she was able to visit her mother in December and return safely back home with her family.
@Rihana - ILit’s have been coming back with updates. Some bitter and some sweet. As a community other ILites have been standing with those who need us and celebrating the victories of hard fought battles with others. @SGBV is celebrating a milestone birthday. It’s a celebration on many fronts and I’d love to add to it by nominating her post Special Birthday :) for FP! Happy Birthday dear SGBV! 40 is the new 20. You probably look like in your 20s too! Have a wonderful time with your family.
Viji sweetheart, the flurry of nominations from you reminds me of a dear teacher giving lots of homework before a holiday weekend to her beloved students. : ) Thank you for all the nominations and for the ! A poignant snippet by @girvani: Seeking A Closure .... It brings together the many shades of life that we experience. The order or timing of the experiences is not in our hands. I have often felt that the uncertainty weakens us more than an actual event or result. I needed this experience to break my emotional barrier to face uncertainty. This and the Eckhart Tolle quote over there sum it up quite well. We should learn to accept uncertainty in all its forms. Thank you @girvani for this heartfelt narration, the message in it and for taking the time and effort to write and share it. In the snippet Djo0kovic And Me @Balajee was sailing in the same boat as Djokovic. Looks like the Australian immigration minister, Alex Hawke, does not approve of this shared water journey. : ) One of the reasons given for Djokovic's deportation was that he would excite anti-vaccination sentiment. Such as snippets in IL? : ) Jokes aside, and all the science debates or the endless data aside, I fervently hope everyone speedily gets around to believing in the need for the vaccine and taking it as soon as they can.
Cold Behavior by @SKoundinya A sibling facing a big challenge in life makes us want to do everything in our power to set things right. We can go about our life's routine but at the back of the mind there is a persistent worry. It was nice to see the suggestions that poured in. I hope those prove useful to OP and bring some relief. After reading the post In A Deep Mess by @shravs3 I simply wished all these tough times would just go away .. and shravs would be posting light posts like in The Young and the Restless thread of long ago. I hope this happens soon .. and shrav's biggest worries are about a tricky OPOS dish, the next Kdrama to watch, Netflix prices going up, whether to take the booster at Walgreens or CVS ... : ) Hope you and your family all are back to normal really soon, if not already, shravs. Take care.
