Monday Motivation: Add-ons
Though life has been made somewhat easy with the quick-fix method, microwave mentality etc.; We learn some things the hard way!

Monday Motivation: Trade by Barter
Many years ago, before paper money and cryptocurrency became vogue, we indulged in Trade by Barter. I’m not sure how many of us were around then, but it simply means, “Trade by Exchange “.

Monday Motivation: Beyond the Mask!
As a child, visiting the village every other December and getting enough stamina not to run from a masquerade took a while.
