264. Micro story

**

In Dubai Emirates flight I happen to see two celebrities ,my heart pounced

I saw Padmashri Sudha Murthy as her zone was announced 

And in business class I saw Anil Kumble seated with his family mid seat

I wait for such opportunities always to forfeit

I wished him ,he nodded with nice gesture and smile

Me being me , a selfie would make it a special mile

But he was in his personal space ward

And it wouldn't be right on my part to make someone awkward 

This was a little change I did for first time 

To live the moment and not capturing him in phone was also fine

Somewhere I was getting carried away by social media like

But I realise the real question if it's something I genuinely like 

The quantum of photos I use to click was too much 

Later I would just fill up phone and delete them such 

Now I learn to be minimalistic in this area with self love and zero bother 

To make sure I do things to express self and not to impress other

This small change is having a positive impact 

Social detoxification is a medicine to anxiety issues and it's a proven fact !!!

A selfie would make it a special moment in my memory file

One more area that is bringing change in a good way 

Is to learn to pause the social media when it gets it's form of toxic play

Earlier the quantum of photos that was clicked were too many 

Filling up phone memory and didn't remember if I lived the moment any 

Now I learn to be minimalistic in this area with self love and zero bother 

To make sure I do things to express self and not to impress other

A small change in perspective and to respond than react 

Social detoxification and balancing emotions can lead to positive impact !!!

Topic - About the night I lost part of myself and that feeling 

And how I am trying to recover towards my journey of healing 

My name is Priyanka Kamath and journaling my life experience in form of poem shelf 

That night when I realised I lost a part of myself 

One of the loss that took toll on my health 

Was losing hard earned monetary wealth 

I was victim of a scam net 

Revisiting surely makes my eyes wet

I used to fill up lucky draw vouchers in mall

Based on same I receive a call

I was asked to come in a hotel hall 

To accept the prize and in trap to fall 

An attractive package for travel was offered bruh!

Something too good to be true

The salesperson was too adamant even to give time to think 

Few lakhs amount was gone just in blink 

Eventually the company turned out to be fraud 

It was like a direct hit to our trust with Rod 

We seeked help with bank,police,legal way

But the company no longer exist and the owner has ran away 

The team was from my hometown 

It hits hard that I got deceived from whom I thought as own

The consequences was too deep

I lost focus on work and sleep

One motivation kept me going 

If fired from job and sitting home hoping 

Would do no good so best was to focus on work

Than crying over split milk and being a jerk 

Even today when I think about this deep seated ache

I feel let this be a nightmare for god's sake

I do believe in karmic account 

If something is written in fate ,it will !without my fault 

I count on my blessing that even if I had tears atleast had a shoulder to cry 

I can work harder to resume the monetary loss and try 

In life, relations matter the most 

'Health is wealth' I am grateful utmost 

If money would have got possession every other 

I would definitely get back my father and  Mother 

Their loss I can never compensate 

But life indeed gives each day as a fresh slate

Losses are inevitable at times

Such experience have made me wise!!!

I a m travelling as I record that can be disturbance please don't mind 

That night took disturbing turn for me to realise this  real life kind 

This is one of the costly lessons I claim as mine 

Thank you for listening and taking time
