Missing from my life
Something or the other is always missing from our lives. At every stage of life, we achieve one new thing and leave behind an old thing. And this way, we start missing all those things. This list keeps on piling. After marriage, we miss a greater part of our old lives. When our family grow, we miss our ‘me’ time. Career makes us busy and away from our family and friends. But what is that one thing that is missing from our lives for so long?
What’s missing from my life
I miss being a daughter.
I am connected to her over the internet but I miss her physical presence.
I miss being a carefree soul;
a soul free of duties and responsibilities
not burdened with household chores
not concerned about the food menu but only eating delicious food
eating almost every dish without counting the calories in it.
I miss being a soul that slept at any time and woke up at another time
When I thought for only me and not for all.
When mistakes were ignored as silly behaviours and not considered as a crime.
How can you stop missing your old habits?
When you start loving your new life with new habits. When you count your present achievements you will certainly stop missing the old times.

I miss certain things in my life too. But then, every phase of life is different and we like it or not, we need to go with the flow.
That’s so true. Thank you
I so loved this post… But we need to sail with time… N move on!
That’s correct. Thanks Madhu
Hey gorgeous 💕 I totally understand this but we should be enjoying the beaibeaut present more and happiness is all around 😍
Yes I know. Thanks Sheetal
Absolutely we always miss things in hindsight. Like miss the carefree childhood in adulthood. Definitely miss eating without thinking this is post having a baby…. Never ever thought so much abt sleeping either. Great write up
Thanks dear
I miss those days too Geethica. This got back so many old memories. Its better not to think too much and live in the present. That’s the best for us and everyone.
Yes that’s true. Thanks Deepa
I feel every phase of life is different and you should live it up differently.
That’s true. Thank you
Nicely worded in a blog about the things we end up missing. Well, once thing about missing something is that it has left a memory for us to think about it again 🙂 May be do/expereince it if we miss it 🙂
Thanks Nameesh
Love the prose Geet, direct from your heart and can touch all girls in this world. I too many parts in my life, but progression in life is what – Life is all about. Wonderfully articulated piece of writing.
Thank you dear.
I can totally relate to this. On moving forward in life we usually miss our old times. I always Miss my childhood days.
That’s true. Thank you.
Oh man… I really considered doing this prompt and using this same theme but so many painful memories came up.
Yes it’s hard to lose things and then remember it. Thanks Roshan
I can totally relate to the points. I miss being carefree too. And being a daughter as well!
