Raju, what is this writing even!! So so delicious. Keep becoming the future Raju..

My chocolate cake, I can see you’re allowing your gooeyness to get expressed. You prefer a delightful mess over a decent cleanliness. Soft, flavourful food over raucously tasty stuff.

Guess I need to start writing letters to my future self again. In my teen years, I used to write two letters every year and both of them used to be dedicated to my future self . Sadly I stopped making them since last year . I got my inspiration to write them again, thanks to you Raju ji ❤️

"writing about the past and the future help us be in the present"

"Mothers who wrote fan mail to their children"

My eyes felt sharp tingles at so many sentences.

Let’s give them the gift of our low volume worries and high volume hope. Let’s never make gratitude lists but let gratitude enlist your work. Everything you receive, give it away. Don’t hoard anything, wonderful or terrible.

These are the gems that I will keep with myself. This is beautiful, Raju. Thanks for this.

You let us all be a little kinder with ourselves: with rest and movement and water and cream and soup. 🤗❤️
