A Hug for the best Dad in the World



My Daddy is my Super hero. I want to thank you Dad for always being there for me. He held my tiny fingers and taught me to walk. He became my teacher, guide and guard. He is my hero my pride. When life's problems are intense, his advice comes like a ray of sunshine. His inspiration takes away my fear. I have faced lots of rejections and difficulties in my life but, but my father has always been a driving force for me. Every advice you have given me has helped me a lot in my life.
Thank you for listening to me like my best friend, guiding me in my career like a good mentor, protecting me like a brave knight & teaching me the ethics and values of life. Thank you for discussing things like friends. Thank you for being so frank with me that never made me feel a hesitation in sharing my personal problems with you and you always had a great solution to solve them.
 Thank you for giving me those sweet childhood memories & every moment spent with you was so great fun. We used to play badminton & football together & how we watched sports together like crazy fans and always cheered out loud for our team India whenever watching sports on TV.
He made me an independent and positive thinking person. He has been a constant source of motivation and inspiration for me and he has always told me to hope for the best, even if something has gone wrong or something bad happen, he always tells me that don't lose hope and always hope for the best and things will be better in no time. 
I have not forgotten any words of yours which you told me as I grew up. "Always think before you act. Never let self-doubt keep you from achieving your goals. Always stay focused and increase your productivity by avoiding the negative signals trying to distract you from your goal. In order to achieve success in your life and your career goals you need to be disciplined.’ You advised me to analyze & plan out things before taking any action on it. You taught me to differentiate between right & wrong, the good & the bad and that I should always do what is right no matter what others are saying or thinking about you. It's from you only Dad that I learned to be punctual and courageous. You have cultivated in me good habits and manners since my childhood. You have taught me to help those in need and never to expect any favor in return. You have taught me to be polite & respectful to the elders and to be friendly & loving to everybody. I asked him once how I can say thanks to him he hugged me and said: "Whenever you really want to say Thanks I should hug him." He is so right like always. So today I want to give you that much needed hug.

I have been brought up in a way which gives me the total freedom of taking my own decisions. My Dad has always taught me to stand by my decisions and has always supported them. Thanks Dad for making me what I am today. My father always helped those who are in need and taught me to do the same.

He is my genie who fulfilled all my wishes.The twinkle of love in his eyes inspires me to be a better person and see things differently. Dear papa you deserve lots of hugs XOXO.

The family secret to kill bad odors at home



I got married into a joint family and my new life was cut out to adjust my lifestyle to the new norms and traditions of the new household and then my husband got transferred to another city and we the newly wed couple set upon the journey of discovering the truths of life that most married couples face and discovering the challenges of adjusting to a new house. The house that we got was a rented flat in the middle of a big bazaar. On the lower floor were shops that were part of the bustling market and our first floor accommodation gave us a good view of the passers by and the hustle and bustle of the life in the new city. My husband had chosen the house specially so that me the new bride would not  feel lonely as I had been living in a joint family before marriage and even after marriage I was used to seeing a lot of people around me as I had got married into a joint family. Though the new house of ours offered a lot of activity and by virtue of so much activity I could observe and pass my day. However as the house was just next to the local fish and meat market it was constantly filled with the smell of fish and meat. It gave us the feeling that we were surrounded by dead and rotting fish 24 X 7 a feeling that was nauseating and made me feel sick. As I began to feel ill my husband consulted a doctor who not only gave me medicines to deal with my never ending nausea but also suggested we look for another accommodation if I constantly felt sick due to the unbearable smell. Hearing about my ill health my mother visited me. As she discovered that my ill health was as a result of the bad smell that was filling every nook and corner of our house, she went to the market and brought for me Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener. It is a spray based product that not just makes the room feel and smell fresh but also removes bad odors from the room completely. No sooner did she spray my room and the rest of the house with the fragrant Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener I felt an instant relief. I felt a pleasant smell arround me. As my mother had brought the flavor of Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener that was of my favorite flavor I was instantly transformed to my childhood memories. I felt so good that not only my mother’s use of the Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener in my house made me feel better but had also made my house battle ready to tackle any bad odor.

The scent of a fresh home


As a newly wed bride the biggest challenge faced by a girl is to set up her own household. When I moved into a new house with my husband I had complete freedom to decorate and arrange the house the way I wanted in the process of transforming it into a new home. For a new bride this is a god sent opportunity to shape her home according to her wishes. As every rose has thorns associated with it similarly every opportunity brings with it its share of challenges. For instance the new house that we moved into had ample space and the rooms were big and airy thanks to the large French style windows. However the drawback was the nearby open sewage that would be more often than not clogged and when ever this clogging occurred it meant living day and night in the stench of rotting sewage. Since pigs like and thrive these kind of environment a lot I found small piglets after having a playful time in the clogged sewage would find their  way through a opening in the kitchen door of our rented ground floor home and would be found sleeping on the cool white marble floor. They had to be shooed away and even though we got the kitchen door an additional latch on the lower part of the door and had the broken part blocked yet the stench of the garbage took several days to go despite regular cleaning. More then the smell itself it was the memory of the smell that seemed to haunt me and I was apprehensive and petrified to go the kitchen as I feared that I may encounter another stinky slimy piglet waiting for me on the kitchen floor. 
For the smell emanating from the sewage I tried keeping the windows sealed at all times and putting heavy drapes so that they may soak any bad odor. I would regularly place fresh and sweet smelling flowers and constantly burn incense sticks in the various rooms. I even tried spraying all kinds of aerosols and fragrances in my house yet whenever I felt that I had conquered the problem of bad odor .I felt a waft of air sneaked into my house carrying with it the stench of the sewage and mocking my efforts of being battle ready and able to tackle bad odors in my house. 
I became very frustrated and wanted to change the accommodation when a friend of mine suggested that I use Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener. As a last resort I purchased it and tried it. When I tried it by spraying it in every room of the house it instantly gave a pleasant feel to the room. Before I could rely on the new solution I wanted to be sure that it worked. I waited for some time and surprisingly there was no smell of any sewage. I inspected every room and even sniffed hard specially near every window that I had painstakingly sealed. However to my surprise there was no smell of the sewage. It was a wonderful surprise. Next day when I got up from sleep I woke up to a fragrant smell of Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener. I thought I was dreaming but this fresh pleasant aroma was the new reality of my life that has made my life more complete and enjoyable

Discovering the Maxfresh Spark of freshness



I am staying back in the college hostel because of an assignment that I have to complete. All my friends and classmates are off to their homes and native places. Some of them are enjoying their vacations. The assignment that I am taking part in is supposed to be completed in the vacations and I am supposed to take readings in the science lab at regular intervals. Even though I love studying science and spending time in the science lab however in the absence of friends and my classmates it takes on a wholly different meaning. There is no one to crack jokes with and none to pull a leg. Life suddenly becomes very boring and the days seem to be stretched and long. Even the clock hanging on the wall of my room seems to take forever to complete the day. With nothing much to do during the day I simply seem exhausted and sapped. Perhaps it’s not the heat of the season that is taking a toll on me but the boredom of an uneventful life. 

This boredom and the eventfulness makes me lose focus and raises the un productiveness level of an otherwise focused person like me. Work tends to linger on and I seem to drag myself to complete my daily routine. I desperately need a change. A change that would drive a spark of life through my half dead and tired flogging spirit. I begin to think what that change could be.I do this lying on my bed and listening to the local radio channels. Then slowly I hear the song Dance Basanti from the film Ungli and played by the famous and my favorite singer Anushka MAnchanda being played out. 
Even in half sleep instead of dozing off by this scintillating music and the magical voice of Anushka MAnchanda I feel my feet begin to move and slowly my whole body begins to wriggle and tries to simulate a dance move to match the beats of the song. Next I find myself standing in front of the large mirror in my room holding a pen in the place of a mike and lip syncking the song. Suddenly I feel the high energy of the song stimulating me and transforming me into an instant dancer. I see myself grooving to the song and performing the steps of none other then the dancing sensation Allu Arjun whose dance moves have such high octane energy that it can only be seen to be believed. Mid way into the dance I already feel so full of energy. I am wonderstruck as to from where did I get this sudden burst of energy. Perhaps some inner reservoir of energy has been uncapped by the singing of Anushka and my emulating the dance moves of Allu Arjun. 
It looks like some switch within my body that was off has been put in the on position and my body had become a reservoir of free flowing energy, vigor and freshness. 
Now that I have discovered the secret and the correlation between care free singing and dancing and the unleashing of that refreshing feeling I want to organize a Anushka Manchanda and Allu Arjun Dance performance in our college. With this new spark of an idea. I begin to send an email to our student’s general body to help me organize one such concert in college so that the whole college can be inundated in the freshness and energy of singing and dancing and live  the most memorable #maxfresh moments of their lives.

Max fresh way of taming the Math dragon



I got up in the morning feeling fresh and energized after a good nights sleep. Every thing seemed just seemed perfect. I was feeling cool and collected when I suddenly realized that it was a working day and I had before me a day that was not going to be easy for me.
It was the onset of summer and already the heat had begun to take its toll with the mercury rising every day.
This was not all. It was a very crucial day for me as I had a math test which I could not avoid at any cost. Our math teacher was a hard task master. She was a great stickler for rules and no excuse ever worked with her. She was a real miser when it came to giving marks and loved to put red marks on the answer sheet, taking pleasure in encircling the wrong answer.
The chapter selected for the test was a very difficult one and many of us had not understood it well enough to take a test. We were scared to tell her this fact as we knew that we would be the objects of her scorn.
I left for the college that day with great fear and apprehension. I did not know how I was going to fare in the test that day. This fear kept gnawing at my heart.
After two successive classes it was time for the math class. Our class was in complete silence. No one had dared to absent themselves from the college that day.
We were all wishing for some miracle to happen. We were all music addicts and wished that we were not in the class but attending a music concert of our favorite singer Anushka Manchanda with the accompaniment of the electrifying moves of Allu Arjun. No more math no more tension only the flow of music. I wondered how our math teacher would look like grooving to the music with Anushka belting out her songs as Allu Arjun grooved.
 I softly started humming a song of Golmaal Returns sung by Anushka Manchanda The whole class joined in and soon we were tapping our toes. In the meantime our teacher entered the class. We were so busy singing that we did not notice her enter. Suddenly we heard someone laugh, it was none other than our teacher whom we dreaded so much. The miracle had happened and she was singing along with us and at the same time loudly tapping her feet with gay abandon. It was our Maxfresh moment that released our stress and charged us with freshness. Our fear vanished and we had a new member in our musical group.
