Alright, I decided to post something because finding time to write these days has been impossible—thanks to all the travel and now, jet lag. So, before I get swept up in Navaratram festivities, I figured I’d write this now. I stepped out onto my terrace today and was greeted by five beautiful roses in full bloom, which absolutely made my Friday! Seeing them was such a heartwarming moment and truly lifted my spirits. I’ve been diligently watering my plants, and witnessing the result—quite literally the ‘fruits’ (or rather, flowers) of my labor—feels incredibly rewarding.

On that positive note, I’ll wrap up today’s post with a promise to write more in Samskritam soon.

Wishing everyone a joyous Navaratram!
