Sunday morning greeted me with rain and a slightly scratchy throat, so I decided to stay in, rest a little, and allow my body the pause it clearly needed. The day ahead was special, we had our Ladies High Tea planned, and I had the privilege of being asked to capture the moments through photography. It felt like such an honour to be trusted in this way, and I silently prayed for two things: for the weather to clear and for me to feel well enough to fully enjoy and be present.
My prayers were answered. As I pulled up to the Mandir, the clouds parted and the sun appeared, as if blessing the day ahead. From there, everything just seemed to flow beautifully. The function unfolded seamlessly, filled with joy, connection, and inspiration. By the end of it, I felt deeply fulfilled and grateful to have been part of something so meaningful.
Being on the planning committee gave me an even greater appreciation of the event. It was moving to see how so many talented women came together, pooling their skills, creativity, and time to bring the vision to life. It was collaboration at its finest. And to top it all off, we were each gifted a beautiful flower arrangement as a gesture of appreciation, a thoughtful surprise that touched my heart.
As the day drew to a close, I made my way home, my thoughts shifting toward preparation for my first day tomorrow. The excitement was building, so was the anxiety (a healthy mix of both, I’d say 😅). But underneath it all was a grateful heart, grateful for the women I shared the day with, the blessings of answered prayers, and the promise of a new chapter unfolding.
This journey has taught me that prayers are often answered in the simplest ways, and that when women come together with purpose and heart, true magic happens.
