“Just Friends”—The Controversy

Just Friends

“Just Friends”—The Controversy

“We are Just Friends”. We all must have heard these tag-lines several times and you must have thought exactly what I am thinking right now. Whenever I come across such lovey-dovey couples, they escape saying these golden words, “We are Just Friends.” I could never understand the logic behind all this drama. Why do you need to clarify? What I feel is that people see only what we exhibit. What we don’t exhibit is never known to the people.

Throughout the year I see such cases in public gardens, cinema halls, malls, and restaurants. These young couples meet after fooling their college teachers and parents, and whenever they are caught they excuse saying that “we are just friends”. Even after several serious actions by local politicians, parents, and society, still these couples are seen every now and then hiding behind the trees or chatting in the parking areas and then all of a sudden these “Just Friends” become valentines on the Valentine’s Day

Parents are working hard to educate their children. They have deep faith in their children. But what are these children doing?  They are spoiling their future for this temporary satisfaction of running away. Running away from school, from colleges and running away from what they are meant to do. Today’s youth is running away at all ages. When a kid running away from food and milk. When they grow up as teens, they start running away from studies and parents. And now when are expected to concentrate in their jobs and should be serious about their careers, they are running away and dreaming for the higher job rather than working hard and improving themselves. They too waste time on these so-called just friends and spoil their married life. 

I don’t understand what today’s youth is earning from this running away from responsibilities.  They have to change now for the better.

A Red For Me

Maybelline Lipstick

A Red For Me

Being a girl with wheatish complexion, choosing Lipstick shades is always a hectic task for me. I always opt for the medium of light shades as compared to darker and bolder shades. There are several browns and pinks in my vanity, but not a single RED. Reason being my dull complexion I never dared to tread on those vibrant and bold colors. I always adored bright colors lipsticks but whenever it came to select for myself I had that hitch to go for brown. I could never imagine myself in hot red lip color. But now Maybelline has accomplished dreams of several Asian complexion women. Have you ever thought about a lipstick which could complement more than 60 complexions? Yes, Maybelline has done it!

A RED FOR ME!

A Red for me
Here I am, the “Red For Me” by Maybelline had been tested on more than 60 skin tones and to your surprise, it was looking wonderful on all skin tones. So now I treasure my very own RED LIPSTICK in my vanity Bag. Amongst all matte and satin shades of lip-colors, this is the most appreciated shades throughout the world. You can easily identify this shade on all celebrities and fashion-trenders. The color effect is seen to be different on different skin tones. It looks amazing on even darker skin-tones like those of Africans and Indians with tanned skin or tan-toned skins. 

Previously, it was thought that such colors like red and hot pink or even bold orange look good only on light colored skin tones. But now the trends are changed with the awareness among youth. People are no longer noticing the skin color all that matters is the texture and glow on your skin. Even the models with darker complexions are gaining popularity. So, now I would suggest you try this unique”A Red For Me’ shade by Maybelline

Crazy Mugs For Your Valentine



Yesterday, I was just wandering through the nearby mall to find something crazy for my children. I always celebrate Valentine’s Day with my family. Since, last few years I buy gifts for everyone in my family, my husband, children, parents, and friends.  So, my hunt starts long before the arrival of Valentine’s Day. After going through the different offers, discounts and combo offers, I got confused between the variety of offers and prices.

The Budget Matters 

As budget is always a closing point in all shopping related matters, I decided to try something online. During my online hunt, I came across these beautiful customized printed coffee mugs. I was dazed to see those mugs with real photos of the persons. So, here I ended up my hunt and decided to start the order procedure as I have to get my families photos printed on those mugs. 

Crazy Cups

I went through the whole matter and finalized everything along with the content and the image I wanted on every individual coffee mug. I was offered several other options also for printing along with the crazy Valentine coffee mugs.

These gifts were printed as I finalized and were delivered to me on time. My parents loved the beautifully customized bed-sheet with matching pillow-covers.

And of course, the most important person in my life, my husband, carries his laptop everywhere and feels confident and loved with those cute pictures of our courtship days as his laptop cover.


So, I would suggest you search the market and find such close-to-heart gifts. It’s not always an expensive gift but majorly such small gifts with gentle reminders of golden days work best as Valentine’s Day gifts.

Why Only On Valentine's Day?

Why Only On Valentine's Day?

Since last decade, I am continuously observing the Valentine- craze in the youth. Young girls and boys are waiting for this special day to express their love for their beloved. They buy expensive gifts, balloons, and chocolates for each other. Spend a full day with others and try to maintain the zing throughout the day. Our local newspapers are filled with extra leaflets on love-messages and romantic poems. Couples spend beyond limits to impress each other and show their love for each other. 

The Whys?

I always wonder, why these young couples and lovey-dovey wait for 365 days to express their love for their Valentine.  Why so much hike on Valentine Day? Where are all these people going after this day? Why the big brands are so much targeted for this day? Why the other days of the year are not equally important to shower love to your buddy?

I always wondered why all of a sudden in this tenure of 10-12 years, Indians are so much diverted towards the western culture. The answer is the marketing stunt and policies of big multi-national companies, who want to sell their expensive products through these events. People see AD’s on TV and the internet and start following blindly. This unawareness of Indian buyers is an asset to these MNC’s. They target these days and manufacture special packaging and limited edition kinds of stuff and several fools around rush to buy these limited edition products. So, now I hereby wanted to educate the youth to use their brains and decide what to buy and what not to buy? Instead of running after limited edition packing they should evaluate the utility and worthy of these products.

The Message

Valentines day gift for husband and wife
A Promis on this Valentine
Dear lovers, you don’t need anyone to express your love and passion. You can show off your love to your beloved on any day and anytime. You don’t need expensive gifts to make her realize your worth, all she/he needs is your time and affection.  So, this Valentine Day, spend time with your lover rather than wasting time and money on the endless competition.

The Most Treasured Gift On Valentine Day

The Most Treasured Gift On Valentine Day


Have you ever thought about what is the most expected or quite obvious gift on Valentine’s Day? You must be thinking about the balloons, roses or expensive gifts. But you are wrong here, as the most commonly accepted and expected gift on Valentine’s Day is chocolates, flavored and colored sweets and toffees. The leading brands are making special attractive packing for the gifts on Valentine’ Day. The basic thought about giving chocolates is to spread sweetness and bonding in the relationship like the sweet chocolates.

The Concept

Have you ever thought why people exchange gifts and express love on this auspicious day? There is a real story behind all these celebrations. There was a priest named St. Valentine during the rule of Emperor Claudius II in the third century. This emperor believed that single men are better soldiers than married men with wives and children. He passed a law that no young men will marry. It was the time when St. Valentine’s efforts to reform the Roman society were realized. He not only organized weddings at the church but also tried to save them from the king’s agony. 

The Emperor ordered his soldiers to kill and bury the priest. Since that day, Roman’s celebrate this day s the lover’s day in the name of St. Valentine. People all over the Rome celebrate love, happiness, and togetherness on this day. Since 19 century, this day is celebrated in India also, though it was basically celebrated at Christian missionary schools as the Valentine’s Day. Then it grew popularity and is viral now as the best day to express love.

The Conclusion

So, after knowing the basic logic behind the sacrifices of St. Valentine, I believe that the best gift you could give someone you really love and care should be “Your Time, Your Faith and Your Companionship” rather than these worldly and materialistic things like gifts and tokens. These all are perishable and the only best gift which will never fade away with time is the memories and happiness you give by spending time and showering love and faith in the relationship. So, this Valentine Day plans a different gift for your valentine. Surprise him/her with your love, affection and time.
