Rishabh, I have registered for the writing space this week. Can you please confirm what time exactly it starts in IST . I am living in the UK so substack shows me GMT time 5.30 am !. But after conversion to UK time its 6.30 am. It has kind of confused me now !! I just need to know the session time in IST please . Hope you see this comment ! Thank you very much. Have a great day
Hey Sharada. Thank you for registering. Yes, it's at 10 AM IST on Saturday morning. I truly hope that you're able to join and for any reason if you can't please let me know what timings suit you and I will try my best to schedule a space at that time. Thanks again :)
Thank you for being so considerate :) 10 am IST would be 5.30 am to me . I will join this one on 18th (very determined to !) But if possible , if you can start your future sessions at 11 am IST or later it would be really helpful. (post 6.30 am here, I would be more awake !) I would just say consider my request only if it suits you and your larger group . I wouldn't be joining on the 25th as I am travelling that day but all other coming weeks I have resolved to join ! :) Thank you very much. Good day to you
Thank you sooooo much Sharada. It means the world to me. I promise I will make it worthwhile for you to wake up at 5 for the writing space.
For the further spaces, if you're interested to join, I can surely tweak the timings to suit your preference. Perhaps, we can take that up later. Excited to host you and co create with you this saturday :)
Beautiful writing as always . This used to topic of discussion amongst my close group of friends in school and college because we all had artistic hobbies but not an ounce of encouragement from our own parents or any other elders arounds us !(except the rare 'sabaashi' for that drawing/painting and that's it !) This inspite being 'educated' parents ! But I hope and like to think that our next generation kids will not go through this battle with the same intensity as we did . I sometimes think, the antidote to this is send that generation of parents/elders for travelling or make them read books !! I feel travelling and reading really expand our perceptions on so many things including what is worthy and what is not in life (The whole problem is they think only some things are worthy enough of pursuing in life !) Forgive my rambling Rishabh :) this topic is so close to my heart .
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt experience Sharada. Forgive your rambling??? You should have gone further to share your story. I am here for that! :)
That rare 'Sabaashi' brought back many bittersweet memories, perhaps it can become a newsletter in itself. You'll know it first when it does :)
Anyways, I hope you, me and we all take time and effort to heal the child within us and get back to creating <3
Absolutely. No matter how much love and appreciation I might get from friends and community members, a part of me still wants my parents to tell me that they're proud of me. Primal evolutionary instincts I guess! Btw, I am super proud of you Muskan :)
My fight is primarily with myself. I have a relatively supportive family and circle of friends. But somehow I feel the need to financially be ready for them. I could see my partner taking the pressure every time I tried to slow down. As someone who never even attempted the corporate slogging, I have never made money enough to cover me for a few years. So, yeah.
I feel you on the "Capitalism makes creativity difficult" Thanks for writing!
thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts :)
Hi Rishabh, Yes I am sure it will all be worthwhile :) Looking forward to seeing you . Thank you for considering the time change request .
Thank you Rishabh, you are a great listener :) . Looking forward to your newsletter :) (no pressure !!).

We all want to feel appreciated by our loved ones. When they can't give us that, it hurts, and nothing else really fills that gap.
