What do you say about a 37-year old who likes to write?
That she is the mother of two preschoolers. Encyclopaedia. Disciplinarian. Football coach. Painter. Teacher. Security blanket.
That she was an investment banker, a management consultant, a microfinance specialist and is now with a children's charity.
That she is passionate about running, yoga, gardening, photography, photoshopping, blogging and knitting.
That she adores Cezanne, and loves da Vinci, Monet and Cartier-Besson.
That she loves reading historical dramas, thrillers, mysteries, and science-fiction, but writes only short stories.
A pomegranate has many seeds. Natasha likes to think of herself as one.
Much of it still holds, but like happens often enough, I have have outgrown the bio-drabble. But before sending it into retirement, I wanted to give it one last moment in the sun.
A rather awesome pomegranate!
ReplyDeleteNicely said, Dipali.
ReplyDeleteI like the Da Vinci part. Are you talking about the artist, or this whole body of work? He was the world's first true genius, I think.

It's retiring? *sniffs*
ReplyDeleteIt IS an awesome pomegranate, and I am lucky to be its twin.
*Thursday twin perceives challenge on HER bioDrabble that definitely needs updating*
Oh, no, are we updating the bios...? *fake sigh*
ReplyDeleteIs it a sign of lack of maturity that I still think mine fits? And most importantly, was that a butterfly's wings that touched my cheek? (I'm all about paraphrasing today - this time from the wonderful Erik Bye)
Seriously, though, I suppose it is a good idea to update the bios every now and then (even though I like them as they are).
@Thursday Twin - yes, you need to update to keep current. I wanted to update because I want to declutter.
ReplyDelete@ Mari - Your drabble is perfect as it is, I think.
@Galen - I admire da Vinci the multi-faceted genius. As an artist, I prefer Michelangelo, but da Vinci was so much more than just an artist.
And it took me a long time to realise you were not taking about the photograph (which I am very proud of). Thanks!
seeds of an amazing personality!
ReplyDelete@ Ritu - don't make me blush!
