FROM a MOTHER’s DIARY – Nitya
AarohiWhere “holy” means child,Brave-hearted adults “ascend”,And become a child.That’s my first-ever haiku and one of the many sprouts of my creativity thanks to Aarohi-x.Since I’m on a roll, here’s another haiku for you.AarohiClock ticks monotonePolytonal AarohiSets-a “tune” to the tick(Btw, every word in quotes is a meaning of the name Aarohi in Telugu, Hindi, and Sanskrit).I could end the blog post here but I’m still on a roll, so I’m gonna talk.“I’ve learned so much from Aarohi,” is not true. Actually, I don’t think I have learned-learned anything from that space. Because I’ve been so engrossed in doing, listening, growing, trying, failing, trying again, collaborating, (envying!), inspiring, being inspired… everything except the conventional learning, you could say.Aarohi is a space where you become a child, no matter what age. Curious, energetic, constantly on the move, inside out.It’s a sacred space where adulting cannot survive. You can’t be serious too long (they are almost always laughing and making others laugh).You can’t fake superiority or inferiority for too long. (I tried.) There’s an equalising, non-judgy, almost cheerleading spirit for any endeavour. Be it a toddler’s scribble or an adult’s epic autobio.My days used to drag in quarantine blues, pre-Aarohi. I wouldn’t remember the dates and days, even the time.Abh, choice nahin hai. Aarohi’s Slack is like one mini-netflix ya. Such a chatterbox-y, constantly creative community that I miss my blues y’all!
#AarohiLife– a space to grow#organically:
Where nobody needs to be beautiful, yet everybody sees beauty in many.
Where nobody needs to be intelligent, yet everybody respects each other’s abilities.
Where nobody needs to be a thinker, yet everybody values other’s thoughts.
Where nobody needs to be an orator, yet everybody listens to various expressions.
Where nobody needs to be smart, yet everybody accepts other’s styles.
Where nobody needs to be an achiever, yet everybody recognizes your endeavors.
Where nobody needs to be knowledgeable, yet everybody gains from what you know.
Where nobody needs to be social, yet everybody enjoys your company.
Where nobody needs to gives an exam, yet everybody assess self.
Where nobody needs to prove anything, yet everybody is a proof of continuous learning.
