#10 Tea Leaves
Day 10 Inktober : Pick
This has been kind of a dream job, wearing a basket over the head, picking those tender and fresh tea leaves and plucking them traditionally by hand. I know it’s not easy at all, but I would love to visit a tea estate in India someday.
#9 Social Pressure
Day 9 Inktober : Pressure
Meeting people, answering phone calls, answering video calls, replying back to messages and mails, living up to people’s expectations, interacting with people in a community, making small talk with strangers, contributing ideas in team meetings, engaging in group conversations, presenting presentations, dinner parties with large groups, listening to incessant loud chatter, being active on social networking sites and wondering why all this isn’t easy is a pressure that some of us, introverts, always have to deal with.
#8 A Watch from the Past
Day 8 Inktober : Watch
Anything that’s vintage always comes with it’s own unique charm and attraction. Every vintage item can reveal many interesting and mysterious stories. Not because we share memories with them but because they look so extravagant and elegant. It feels like they have a character and history despite the imperfections.
#7 K-Pop Fan
Day 7 Inktober : Fan
When I need a pick-me-up, Korean shows and BTS, never fail to add some color and pop into those grey days.
#6 Expect Nothing
Day 6 Inktober : Spirit
Simple values to keep the inner spirit happy and at peace.
#5 Nevermore
Day 5 Inktober : Raven
But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only
– From the poem Raven by the literary genius Edgar Allen Poe.
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing farther then he uttered—not a feather then he fluttered—
Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before—
On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.”
Then the bird said “Nevermore.”
#4 Wildflowers In Her Hair
Day 4 Inktober : Knot
She tucked in wildflowers in her messy braid, just like the free spirit that she is.
#3 Indian Grace
Day 3 Inktober : Vessel
While growing up I have seen Indian women walking home carrying water in mud pots on their head. Though an arduous task, I cannot forget how graceful they always looked!
#2 In Your Suitcase
Day 2 Inktober: Suit
All the places that I’ve been dreaming of visiting since 2019. Well, the suitcases are packed and waiting, hopefully soon I can check them in.
