The Daily Post: The Transporter : Tell us about a sensation — a taste, a smell, a piece of music — that transports you back to childhood.
Wondering who is our transporter? SEE the photographs of our child below. Sense the TOUCH of those tiny fingers. LISTEN to that music- a lullaby! Ah! There’s nothing like a BABY SMELL. Feel the sensation- the TASTE of Childhood Memories for a short duration. 🙂

Nothing stays forever,
Even emotions disappear;
Family and friends are close to the heart,
Hold them tight before they depart;
Achievement and success give short-term pleasure,
Beautiful memories are all we must treasure.
Nothing stays forever,
Enjoy the journey, do not regret later;
Money and wealth, are the materials we hold,
The moments we live, are actually gold;
Count your blessings, thank the Power Supreme,
Live the life you always dream.

“Through this post we also take the opportunity to thank our readers and viewers for their incredible support.”
This post is all about our journey here in WordPress since July 2014 till December this day. The first day (July 14) with WordPress was quite monotonous as we had no idea what to do. But as we moved ahead in this journey, we managed to gather readers and viewers from every nook and corner of this world. And as we approach this New Year, we have high hopes of expanding our contribution to reach as many readers and viewers as possible trying to share our ‘share of life’.
So, let the Countdown to a new beginning start !
10. July 14: THE BABY STEP
The Other Side of the Story: Our first post. This post tried to compare the rich and poor from a different perspective.
Aww…. 😦
This looks so incomplete; without any picture or tags. No likes or comments either. But that did not de-motivate us. Probably because approval of others was not what we were seeking here.
9. July 16: THE FIRST VISITOR
Finally we were spotted by someone. Thank you Samoan Sword, for sparing the time to read our post. As we are academicians, this was what we thought would be beneficial to the society we are part of. Yes, Value Based Education System, the need of the hour! This post was all about the young learners who must be guided to shape their own mind so that they understand the importance of positive values and apply these values in their journey of life.
But how irresponsible of us! We did not even bother to reply back to this first visitor. We must have been busy customizing our Blog to make it attractive in the simplest way possible, trying to make it clearly visible and legible.
8. July 18: WHERE THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY
Will Power Matters ! Our third post that provided us the limelight.
This post too carries no tags or pictures. It looks so dull ! However, this time we somehow learnt while experimenting with WordPress that we could share our posts in Facebook. And here we are with 45 likes! But none to like in WordPress still. But two of the bloggers did comment on this post. Thanks to Tammi Kale and susieshy45 for visiting our blog.
This was sufficient for us to keep us moving in this new world among strangers. We were enjoying this new experience playing with our own thoughts and feelings and sharing it with the world without the least expectation of being selected to publish our work.
Wonderful! Isn’t this an achievement in itself? Definitely yes! This, kind of boosted our enthusiasm and energy to devote more of our time in expressing how we feel about everything around us, trying to improve as we stepped ahead.
Will Power indeed matters !!
7. July 27: THE TURNING POINT
Something suddenly struck our mind. Being crazy travellers, we had that bulk of photographs with us that could not be utilised so far. And here was the opportunity to portray and share our experiences through our photographs. And there was this turning point! The Call of the Hills– Yes, our next post.
We decided to bring our writing skill and photography together in one platform and make our existence visible and possibly work towards the purpose of our life to spread the message of unity and peace.
And we came up with our first ever ‘wonder post’. We call it a ‘wonder post’ because it looks so lively. Even now as we opened it to include the link, it was so exciting to read our own experiences and bring back those memories back to life! It is an awesome feeling of getting lost in the sweet memories of the past treasures. And what is more incredible is that we could share it with the world! This is amazing! We really did it!
4 bloggers liked it and 17 likes from our Facebook friends. We believed we were doing great, at least we made ourselves feel so; no harm, isn’t it? And most important we found that magic wand!
6. July 28: THE PUSH AHEAD
Age is just a number: Our first ever entry to the Daily Post! It was short but was indeed a challenge. And it was like we discovered that silver lining in the cloud.
We continued posting at a stretch day and night. WordPress was our new love.
And here was the twist! The Daily Post and Weekly Challenges got us in its grip and we started relating our life experiences to the themes these challenges provided. It was a blessing in disguise to come up before the world as an example (good or bad). We did not have any trouble choosing what to post because there were already plenty before us, as if they were prepared to assist us in our endeavor.
Here are some of our posts that would definitely keep your eyes locked to the screen. We have numbered them in ascending order of likes by other bloggers.
5. The Tussle between Venus and Mars
Women and Men are both marvelous and inspiring creations of the Unseen Creator. They are different, yet meant to be together. They are opposite, yet they attract each other!
Be a part of this thrilling experience!
A Tale of the Good and the Bad brought together in this post. Find yourself lost in the ups and downs of your own life, trying to lift yourself up in the ladder of life as you scroll through the post.
Find out what we do when life gives us lemons. No, we never make lemonade. 🙂
2. Way of Life

1. Humanity- The Connection The most loved post of our blog!
We have created some of the wonderful memories of our life with WordPress- our readers and viewers! What more could we preserve from our life in 2014 than these memories and the pleasurable and marvelous conversations with strangers from all over the world. An achievement indeed ! 🙂
