Past few days I have been feeling a tad low and l'il deficient as a mother and a wife and generally think am being a painful person to have around! So, this tag might be a good exercise in boosting my self esteem. Thanks awesomely cool Asaan and awesomely funny MiM for this one. Ofcos these two phenomenal ladies have done just too much of an awesome job of it, but I am gonna give it a shot in any case! :D
I need to put down 7 things that make me AWESOME! Seven seems a tall order! brrrr!
I am awesome because I have a smile that reaches my eyes even today. My teeth aren't pearly white by any stretch of imagination, but that has never stopped me from showing em off at any given chance! :p
I am awesome because I always manage to look at the bright side, the silver lining or whatever else you might call it. I love the fact that I am almost always positive about how things are and will turn out! :)
I am awesome because I am a solution oriented person. I can think in ten different ways and come up with just the right option. Basically, I am quick on take and enjoy taking control of the situation that seems to be getting bothersome!
I am awesome because I deal with people at every level with equal respect. You can be the office boy or my boss, my maid or my ma in law, you will see me being polite and genuinely respectful and/or affectionate. I use please and thank you in every situation, though sorry doesn’t come by that easily! :p I make friends easily too, though keeping in touch is not my strongest point! ;)
I am awesome because I can forgive even when I may / may not forget, but mostly I forget too. I truly believe that life is too short to hold grudges and waste time in hating when it can be used to love! :)
I am awesome because I give without expecting (most of the times! Hubby may be excluded from this! ;). I believe that one good turn gets another and even when you may not get something back from the same person; it will come to you from the most unexpected quarter... in full measure or maybe more! :)
I am awesome because I managed to do this tag!! I started this blog on M's insistence and didn't think that it will be such an awesome thing to have where i can record our life with Cubby and make awesome friends while at it!
Now if that isn’t too much awesomeness for a day, I dunno what is! ;)
I tag fellow awesome peoples;
Puja for being an awesome friend all the time!
Swati for being awesome at everything!
~nm for being awesomely creative - be it cooking or photography or making cool headers!
Namesake for using her words so awesomely that you always feel you are right there!
Priyanka for doing awesomely interesting stuff with her l'il gal Ash!
Sue for her awesomely clear thinking and honesty!

Awww... thanks, babe. I'll do it.
You sure are awesome, girl! :-)
Me going to take this up, me been feeling low for some days too...
You're an awesome gal...it comes through in your writing and your smile!
Thanks for your vote of confidence, shall try and think up some nice things to say about myself...you have no idea what a tough task that is! ;)
abha- great list!! the best part is that all the mentioned come across in ur writing too, so u shld add that u are an awesome writer as well !! it will be tough to do this one, abha. tho i like to think myself as awesome its harder to define :) thanks for the mention though!! and i like ur method, will do this one when i need something to cheer me up !!!!
I think this whole "feeling low" echo in the comments is just a fall-out of the sad, bad weather we been having-- where it threatens to rain and then doesn't. Load shedding doesn't help us feel chirpy either. So ladies, cheer up. Have a Mocha!!
I will now go on to echo one of the comments, from the lovely Dee:
I also think u must add to this list is that ur an awesome wife, an even awesomer mom and the awesomest friend..
Agree completely :-)
As for your prob-solving skills, you'd make such a great manager. Like, someone super senior. Sometimes it feels like such a waste to see you not pursue a high-flying career more aggressively. You'd be better at it than me, for sure!!
Good luck girl. Stay this awesome always. Thanks for making this awesomeness MINE.
I would add to Dee's list-
you are also an awesome daughter-in-law. You will never realise how much happiness you have given me.
Hey everyone forgot the obvious- yes who else but you could have brought such an awesome gift to this world of ours- KABIR, A BETTER REFINED VERSION OF YOURSELF.
GOD BLESS
Hey Abha, after long time you've posted and lemme tell you, you are indeed "AWESOME" :)
why feeling low, lady?
and lovely points , all of them.
clang! your awesome meter's full!
keep that smile and positive enrgy flowing :)
this tag is good in the sense its sort of a mirror talk, you feel awesome after writing this :)
ofcourse you are awesome for all these reasons and more :-)
But the top reason for me would always be your positivity! I really wish you write some tips on that for me ;-)
sue - pls to do!! :)
JLT - yeah take it up! i know you one helluva awesome woman! :)
namesake - i think you are a phenomenal woman to say the least! so am sure its gonna be a breeze for ya! :)
CP - if the only way this tag is gonna get done is whne you feel low, may you neva have to do it! :) but its good to know you are awesome even on a normal day! :)
Vidooshak - thankoo! :D but then i am too lazy to work hard enough to get somewhere more relevant! :p
Papa - awwww! thank you so much! you know coming from you it means a lot to me! :)
shabnam - thanks girl! i think you should take this one up too! its a great way of regaining perspective! :)
suma - :) i tagged ya and then edited it when i read that you had already done the tag! awesomely as always!! :) and yes, its been good doing this!
WIAN - if you teach me how to come up with those fab puns, i will teach ya how to be positive! ;)
cheers!
abha
You have an awesome smile and you're awesomely bubbly! I think I overdid the awesomeness :D
Abha, you truly are an awesome ways in many many ways - your infectious smile, your friendly ways, bindaas attitude and the way you open up your heart to new people. Way to go lady and keep smiling :)
I think the first of the awesome qualities - the smile reaching up to the eyes - is because of all the awesome qualities listed later.
