What it was?
Afew days back, sitting in my balcony I started missing my mother a lot, then just to keep her memories live and always feel happy about them I started knitting a sweater the way she used to. I could not make as lovely as she did, but somehow I managed to make a simple one.
Where did you learn it?
Although my mother taught me many times, I had never taken this skill seriously as I use to completely depend on her to do this work for me. Now that she is not there, I started checking the youtube and found one interesting video through which I learnt to make a perfect design on the sweater.
How important it was?
I think it was really important for me to realise the importance of this art and the kind of creativity it adds to life. I feel knitting is not just a creative art but also an exercise to your fingers and an intellectual development as even one wrong step may waste a lot of time.
Why do you think it was important.
This simple creativity adds values of intellects, fitness and keeping one busy. Also, the colourful wool that is used make, one gets the feeling of being artistic and pride about making something with own hands. The more appreciation one gets for this the more is the craving to be associated with the skill, keeping away from all negativities of life.

Why do you think it was important?
Recently, I got the chance to enhance my cookery skills. I engaged myself in cooking classes and acquired the art of making and decorating cakes and biscuits, basically, I pursued a crash course on cooking confectionary items.
I learned five types of cakes and almost ten types of biscuits and cookies. They were mainly of chocolate and basic vanilla flavor including iced flavors of strawberry, mango, and pineapple.
Where did you learn it from?
I learned it from the famous chef Tarla Dalal, who had specially organized an event at the Taj Residency Hotel which is very close to my residential area. The event was large and I got the chance to meet many like-minded people.
How important the lesson was?
The lesson was really important as this was a long desire I had in my mind. I wanted to learn this because I believe in organic home-cooked food even for having small celebrations. When my family appreciates my efforts, I feel top of the world and my happiness has no bounds. The kind of satisfaction I get while I add my fusions into the recipe just waters my mouth to have it instantly. It was also important as I could add my own skills into what I acquired to make something different and feel the pleasure of having something I wish to and will not have to depend on anyone to make for me.

Why do you think it was important?
What you have learned?
Learning new things is a part and parcel of life. I keep acquiring new skills so that I become more proficient and boredom does not strike in. Recently, I had an urge to learn driving, as in my perspective driving gives oneself the freedom to move out and about without relying on anyone else.
Where you learned it from?
I learned it from a driving school near my place. A driver was allotted to me who came every day in the evening for one hour. Initially, I faced a setback when I could not even start the car. I was low on morale, but then came in my parents’ who instilled in me the confidence that I could learn it and it was no hard nut to crack. Well, they were right.
How important the lesson was?
I guess I was lacking the encouragement that came in at the right time from my parents. I got motivated and put in my hundred percent to learning driving. The day I could independently start the car and drive smoothly was the day I felt a different kind of freedom and independence. It had a profound impact on my self esteem as I felt a different kind of energy while driving.
And explain what impact this has on your mind?
This journey of learning to drive was incredible. These two months training was a game changer in my life. I felt more confident and responsible as driving alone or with other people instilled in me a sense of responsibility. I felt so proud of myself when I took my parents on a long drive. I was the driver for the first time and my parents were the passengers. I feel they were the ones who pushed me to learn driving skill as they knew how helpful it would be for me in the long run. With time, listening to music while driving has become a stress buster for me and I enjoy it like never before.
