Fantasy

If today is all you have, what would you do?

Me Today
                                                                   
                                                    
In the midst of living our lives for the future we forget to live in the moment. We are always on a run working, planning and saving for future, but is this why we got this life for. Well, I believe in today and making the best out of the present. I believe in calling my loved ones at the moment and not pushing it to tomorrow and I believe in doing the things that makes me happy and most importantly living the life the way I want it. At the same time, I also understand that we are social animals and we have to coexist and certain things we do are influenced by the society and the people around you, but how long should we go on shaping ourselves by the talks of the society just to be accepted in the society as they want. So, if today was all I have I would like to live openly, walk freely, think loudly, not missing the past and not worrying about tomorrow. I would like to live the today to the fullest being myself.

My Love for GREEN TEA

Nothing beats the taste of a green tea and no drinks in this world is as refreshing as a green tea. My love for the green tea started since 2015, at first, I didn’t like the taste much as it was bitter but then gradually my taste bud became acquainted with it and without even realizing I kind of became addicted to it. To me I always need a cup of green tea to complete the meal even after a luxurious meal at star hotels. No matter how scrumptious or heavenly the food and drinks are, I find it incomplete without a cup of green tea at the end. Even when I am having a heavy work load and runs out of idea a cup of green tea break lifts off my stress almost completely. With my growing love for green tea, I fear of its effect on my already low blood pressure and staining my already ugly teeth but there is not much I can do because I really cannot live without it. However, I am slowly reducing the amount I drink every day and I feel that's the right thing to do even if my love for green tea is infinite. 
P.s: To all those who are having a rough day I will recommend a cup of warm green tea.

Finding myself

 

Even if it’s just for a day I want to fit in the society, I want to fit in as myself and not someone else. The thing about humans is that we have emotions which are too intensive and we have the least control over it. We don’t feel certain emotions to certain things because we are ordered to do it, it is just spontaneous and so natural and these emotions lead you to the best feeling ever to the worst feeling ever. Will I  ever be able to understand my emotions and understand myself better. If that ever happens one day, I want to be less harsh on myself.



Bhutan Homestay Network

As a Bhutanese we are all connected with each other by culture, religion and most importantly by heart, that’s why things in the society functions like a network. Too cliché right, sorry about that but on a serious note I would like to talk about the real network, BHUTAN HOMESTAY NETWORK (BHN). As a pilot project this network will connect the homestays in 4 Dzongkhags (Haa, Wangdue, Bumthang and Chukhha) so that the homestays, HRAB, GAB and ABTO and the guests comes under the radar of BHN. What’s different here is that BHN will function as a community-based organization run by entrepreneurs and it will serve as a common platform for the homestays to develop. It will not only help in guest distribution but also cater to the real needs of the homestays such as capacity building (culinary, house keeping and communication in English and other foreign languages). When such projects are started sustainability is a striking question so we propose to deduct certain fee from each guest distributed to the homestays so that the BHN will function efficiently and provide end to end services.

That’s the idea but there are still lots to do before it is fully implemented and we hope to connect all the homestays in Bhutan and link with Regional and International platforms for better promotion.
