Adding ZEST to My Life......

By Anupamapnb @divallista

By living the tedious and hectic life of a full-time beauty blogger, the kid inside me has taken back steps and my daily routine includes only writing blogposts, taking pictures, selfies and exploring and trying out new products and further sharing them on social medias. The ZEST in you somewhere hides and it's all about adding that in your life.

Zest up your life!

Zest up your life!


Then the question arises, What is ZEST? Where is ZEST?
ZEST to me means stepping out of your comfort zone, doing fun-filled, crazy things, enjoying some quality moments with your loved ones, laughing like kids, etc. The fruit of life is to live life freely, no matter what other thinks and how much the stress.

There are millions of things that adds ZEST to my life, and today I'm comprising 5 such things :



Music 

Music

Music

Life will be a dull ride if there won't be any sort of music. Music just perks me up on a dull, tired day. Sometimes I just love dancing to my favorite songs without any barriers and flows through the flood of music. Listening to evergreen Dev Anand and Shammi Kapoor's songs adds energy and zest to my dull day, making it stress-free and happy.
Rain 

Rains are to enjoy!

Rains are to enjoy!

The joy of patting in puddles, ruining dress and shoes, falling and again getting up, dancing, etc are the ultimate joy that a rain brings for me. I can't deprive myself from the excitement and happiness that the rain showers on me. Every drop of rain cheers me up from worry and stress. I just love stretching my arms, with my eyes close and face the rains to hit me hard. I just forget the consequences I would need to face afterwards, like the cold, fever, cough, etc.
Reading/Writing

My greatest passion!

My greatest passion!


I can't imagine a single day without reading or writing. reading has been my utmost priority since childhood. During my school days, I use to borrow books from my friends and library and use to finish reading a book in a single day. Be it novels, short stories, biographies, fiction, non-fiction or romantic; books are my all time best friends. Reading is about stepping into a world and walking down the lane guided by words to find unexpected turns and sometimes discovering it to be simple straight. I use to stammer, when kid (3 yrs), but reading has improved it a lot, still I forget some words while speaking to someone. 

Writing has always been my way of expressing things and jotting down my feelings, heart or mind through a diary. When I'll get old, maybe I would share the diary with my better-half or speak it aloud to my grandchildren. Writing nurtures your inner strength and secures your past for your future.


Family/Friends

Family time

Family time

The most priceless possession that I own. At times I listen to my parents childhood stories and about their thoughts on life when they were at my age or maybe younger than me. Laughing, fighting, taking care, pampering, pulling each others leg, pillow fights are the most expensive and priceless moments shared with my sister. Since the time we wake up in the morning, the gossips over tea for nothing, till the dinner at the end of day makes my day. Small walks, going to restaurants for dinner, shopping, bargaining with the vegetables wala are all have been a part of my life with my dear friends ~ Atrayee and Gurpreet. They are my childhood friends and we are together, since I was 6 years old. Love spending time with my family and friends and it do adds that ultimate zest to my life.

Playing 

Dogs are a man's best friend

I love love playing with my dog ~ Bushy! She loves being pampered and cares for me very much. With my hectic schedule, I hardly give time to her, but the quick moments I share with her, are worth cherish. I feel always very attached to her. 

I love life completely because I live with ZEST, the zest which I find in everything I see and which I am yet to feel. I make it a point to learn new things, forgive quickly, love more and let go of what no more grows. Just learn to live life fully, afterall we are not robots which are framed for only work. We are humans, and we need to enjoy ourselves. Work is appropriate a part of life and life has many more other features too :)This post is a part of the #ZestUpYourLife activity in association with TATA Zest and BlogAdda.com
