Faster, Cleaner, Better: Leading the Change

IndiMeets are always fun! This one especially which was held last Saturday in Mumbai in association with Berger Paints. What got me all excited was the "colors" bit- it has been years that I got my hands dirty with paint and colors, and so I eagerly looked forward to the fun afternoon. It was lovely to see some familiar faces as I entered. The Inditeam, warm as ever assisted us with all the event details. After the registration and a delicious meal at the Taj Vivanta ,where the event was being held, we seated ourselves amidst a lot of chatter and infectious positive energy in the room. 

"The Stage"

The host for the event, Anoop, kept us all at the edge of our seats with fun exercises and some leg-pulling. We started with musical chairs (with a twist, of course!). After warming up to some "Dancing with the Chairs", and some rounds of introductions for the new and old Indibloggers, we were all geared up for more. Bloggers were being recognized with vouchers for best tweets, insta posts and pictures and most of us were busy typing away throughout the event! (And oh yes, I won one too!😀 )
My Berger #PicOftheDay
The next session introduced us to an innovative new style of painting by Berger Paints called Express Painting. This style uses automatic machines for all the work involved- right from scraping the walls to smoothen them to removing the dust to even painting them evenly. This not only reduces the average time required for painting an entire house (externally or internally) but also lowers the effort to clean the dust and wait patiently for the entire process to be completed. A 2 week period now reduces to a 2 day window with Berger Express Painting! Now if that hasn't surprised you, there's more!!! The cost involved remains the same too! No additional charges at all! A stress free and a hassle free painting technique indeed!!! Mr. Chandranath Banerjee explained the process very well along and we were shown some advertisements too! 
Several Indibloggers asked questions on the techniques and tools to Mr. Banerjee. The tools- Sanding Machine, Multipurpose Mixer, Auto Roller, High Pressure washer etc. were put up for display at the venue too.

Later, there were a lot of fun team events lined up for us. My team was named, "Team Cleaners". We started with an activity which involved smoothening a surface using sand paper. Geared up in headcaps, gloves and masks, we were all set for "Operation Safai". After a short tea break, we were back for some more painting. The theme was- "Mumbai" and all the teams did exceptionally well. We used Berger colors and drew on a canvas. The beautiful paintings were later presented by each team.

The afternoon ended with a smile on every face. Thank you Team Indiblogger and Berger for a fun Saturday. we were handed a goodie bag with information on the Express Painting techniques and a coffee mug. 

Looking forward to the next one soon! Cheers..

A yellow sunny day Surrounded by lavender fields, I felt as happy as a daisy Under a blue sky with wisps of white clouds blowing steadily A tiny brown squirrel scurried near me Hunting for acorns amidst the greenery. As Twilight approached, Draped in shades of orange and red, The grey crescent moon appeared A regular visitor Shining brighter as the night got blacker. Do you see the rainbow too? As the days pass and turn to years , Your Life in technicolor...

"I dream, therefore I exist"

She dreamed about it, day & night Knowing it was too good to be true.  Wanting for it to happen with all her might But being practical was her virtue. Some told her to pray, others to visualize Saying, work your way, don’t see left or right. Work she did, day & night, Her goal, though not in sight. One day, her dream stared her in the face She was too numb to react “Dreams do come true. I can’t believe it, “, she cried “Maybe, I was too afraid, I’d fail” she said & smiled.

Buddy Parenting

Parenting is a tough job, & trying to be a friend to your child at the same time can be a difficult task. However, playing a dual role of a parent & a friend need not be kept separate. As long as you create the trust between your child & you, & make them aware of the boundaries & limits, its manageable.  Sometimes, they will require you to be a parent, asking you for advice, coming to you for sympathy & a shoulder to cry on. You as a parent also need to respect your child in many ways. Your child is looking for advice and guidance from you and you are, in a way, their role model whether they want to admit it or not. Parents these days are afraid to refuse the demands of their kids but its OK to say no sometimes. Giving in to your child's wishes may lead to extreme stubbornness in latter years. Hence, it is important to know where to draw the line and know where to be a parent and not to please them because you do not want them upset or angry at you
