Thankful Thursdays: My vices

Do I have vices?

I am human right?Must be having some vices.I asked my hubby to mention 5 vices I had.

The man answered ,

all is great ,you don’t have vices!

This can only come with great foresight.Imagine what would happen,if he actually gave me a list.That’s something even I don’t believe.So I go searching in the depths of my soul, to find those vices which are disguised as virtues.

Tell me do you think these are vices?

I have a very low boredom threshold.I can go to any extreme to avoid boring conversation and boring people.As a teenager I aced my class tests(not bragging) by pretending to study so much ,that I actually ended up studying.All because I wanted to avoid visiting places and people who irritated me or bored me. I was that bad!I also pretended to be helpful and suggested taking my little sister along.Things came to such a pass ,my sister when she was 13 declared I had no right to volunteer her ,when I was sneaking away!

Sisters!They know how to put you right 🙂

That’s why I always challenge myself to learn new things ,to stop this vice creeping up.

Reading too much

I read anywhere ,everywhere all the time.Everything I am doing ,will do,have done is because I adore words,I was born on a Saraswati Puja day and I believe the Goddess, loves me more because of this.There have been times I have burned rice (in a microwave),charred the boiling milk,left the eggs cooking too long,all because I have read with too much attention.This one is a problem,but one I cant imagine not doing.Its like asking me to stop being me!

Believing in good energy and bad

This may ,make me sound a little off but I am really a believer in the energy emitted by people.If I don’t like the vibes I get from you,then we will not really be growing close.Optimism,sincerity,thankfulness,faith and love are qualities I believe in.Probably that’s why ‘the people who are in my life have those same qualities.My friends from medical college , are still a phone call away.We haven’t met physically in 5 years ,but our minds travel through space and time .Yes I need a checkup.Its a serious vice!

Red lipstick to change lives

Red is the color of love.Its the color of your blood and a passion .Its a bold color which says “look at me”.If I ever feel sad and lonely ,I just put on red lipstick,even at home while cooking lunch. That’s one way of battling the blues.Just put on the RED!That’s why I end up buying red lipstick all the time.

Deeply madly believing in love ,magic

This is impossible to explain.But the only way to get magic and love  in your life is to believe in it.I read Mills and Boon as sincerely as I did my school books .Believing one day someone will make everything better.Love is magical .Its Gods way of telling us we are not alone.Two people,however different can feel each others sorrows and joys as deeply as their own.I am a shameless romantic .But the best things in my life has come from   believing.If  believing in magic is a vice ,its one of my favourite ! Do you believe?
