Another sultry day

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 17h

It's 32°C tonight. Today was unbearably hot and humid , forcing me to stay in one of the ac rooms. The electricity bill will be astronomical, so we're trying to avoid running both air conditioners...

Love

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 24 Mar

Does love fade with time? Or like Shakespeare's verses, true love defies time’s decay, remaining constant despite life’s trials? While passion may wane, love’s essence persists, much like Shakespeare’s immortal words- unshaken...

Family

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 23 Mar

Family—uh, well—you live with them...so there are disagreements, verbal battles, a bit of drama (lol), but there's also unconditional love and the fact that they will never leave you no matter what. Well, by family I meant just...

First rainfall of 2025

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 22 Mar

Torrents of rainfall are pelting on the window sills. The overcast firmament with a few fleeting gossamer clouds and the perpetual rain exude the earthy scent of damp soil and wet foliage. My propensity to slip into melancholy in...

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 20 Mar

I was standing on the balcony today. A cool breeze was blowing by. Its windy here for the past few days- a welcome change from the scorching heat...I hope this lasts long. The guileless brown eyes of a puppy ambling down the...

Finding the compass

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 13 Mar

Lately, I have been feeling stripped of my compass. The debris of the storm remains. Life cannot be perpetual darkness. The propensity for hope and energy, deeply seated in us as kids, should not die in adulthood. Well to feel...

The weight of unseen tomorrows

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 3 Mar

There are days when you wish you could skip ahead - when you question why you even got out of bed. The future looms like a lingering vortex of uncertainty, and you wonder if there's truly a light at the end of the tunnel. But...

Resurgence

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 28 Feb

I find myself trying to look away from the storm ahead, yet life seems determined to teach me how to face it head-on. It’s during moments like these that I turn to writing. I've often wished I could approach life with a bovine...

On a lighter note...

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (7463) • Calcutta, India 25 Feb
