Nicely described.. the best part is "pressure to enjoy". Mam I also entered my 30s this year. Best way to celebrate is to stay in calm and happy place with our loved ones. I am a mother of baby girl trying hard to achieve my dreams and goals of UPSC. I am done with my syllabus but very confused about the optional. If you can advice me in this regard then it would be of great help.

Love this!

I totally agree with the part where you said birthdays are occasions that expects one to be happiest about, I don't think the excitement really exists when one gets older. Its just like any other day and perhaps the gloomiest day of all!

Hello ma'am ! I can't describe how much I look forward to these weekly reads. It's one of the best parts of the whole week. I had a query to ask about or perhaps a suggestion from you . I find it really hard to keep reading a book consistently along with the portion of syllabus I've to complete . I love books but I've to study as well. So , there's this battle between two things i struggle to balance out. Please help me with this :⁠-⁠)
