Hi there! My name is Shweta and welcome to my world. I have been dreaming about writing a blog forever and here I am finally. I have conceptualized my blog in my head for years but the fear of not being good at it stopped me from creating one until one day I was sitting at starbucks and went for it just for the heck of it. How bad could it be? Right!

I am originally from Hyderabad in India. I came to US to do my masters back in the fall of 2007. It’s been 18 years and US is my home now. It’s surprising how this country where I came to study and built a life feels more home than the one I was born and grew up in. That said I miss my city – Hyderabad very dearly and try to visit whenever possible.

I am an avid reader so if it was my way I would just live with my books by myself forever but that is not possible as I fell in love with this amazing guy during my masters and we created a beautiful family with 2 boys and a very big dog. So here I am juggling everything along with keeping up with my books :) I set up these reading challenges each year which helps me keep up with reading regularly and not lose myself in just the workings of life!

I have a very small circle of friends. I keep my friends very close, I am loyal and cherish those friendships very dearly. I speak my mind and if I don’t like something is very much evident on my face – No Poker face here :)

I named this blog because at every step of life that is my mantra – I pause, take a deep breath and always think, reflect on what, why and how of life. I hope you will enjoy reading my thoughts and it could end up being a fodder for your own mind. So come on ride along.

Love, Shweta
