Sincere Thanks to @AmrithaPrem from whom I've copied this habit of writing monthly experience come learning. This is highly awesome experience of connecting dots of learning along with human relationship.
On Labors days Morning, after sending wishes to my friends, I've disabled all notifications from WhatsApp adding my email address in its permanent status including my home address asking everyone to reach out to me through text messages, email or LETTERS (a faded ancient habits for many now)
Even, I posted the same in my Facebook profile whereas, I found lot of enthusiastic Facebook lovers who were asking my address in private chats to write a letter.
You know what? Fortunately, There is no letters! So Sad. :(
However, I've sent mine.
Anyways, lets kill my expectations here to move on with May month learning subscribing to days without WhatsApp which helped me gaining some extra hours generating awesome memories added with knowledge transfers too.
My SEVEN learning for May, 2019 are as follows,
- There is a LIFE beyond WHATSAPP
- People who want to be in touch with you will always find a way to contact you.
- If you want to start anything new, start immediately by renewing your old habits. Though its a fearful feeling in the beginning, you can still make it happen.
- It always matters with whom you spend your maximum TIME in a day. [Imagine what happens if you love more than 100 people]
- Relationships exists everywhere. It can be earned in every single aspects of your LIFE. However, you can't own it.
- Sometimes TRUTH hurts. Habituate to get along with it.
- You can write an article without using,
"AND" & "BUT".Thanks for the challenge notification, @AmrithaPrem
Disclaimer: 30 days of not using "Whatsapp" cannot enlighten you, it can give you some extra hours of time to spend your day. If you're the one who don't want to use WhatsApp or social networks being afraid of losing your privacy. Then, change your mind, it's already been sold in the market,
So Enjoy LIFE by building human relationship by meeting your friends who are willing to take part in forming a community where friends love each other without material or monetary benefits.
Let's quickly walk through the TOP 10 connect of this May month,
Connect 01
All of a sudden, From May 2nd, 2019 I found like having sufficient time to spend. So I thought, why not I continue writing my book which is dusted long back for some reasons. Yes. It was a good start. I Started writing my own book which I'm visualizing to be published on 7th December, 2019.
Hey, This is just my raw data not my final version. So Chill!!

My month started in spending hours with priya amma.
"Priya amma na enakku avalavuuuuuuuu pidikkummmmmm".
Being with a women/mother/teacher/mentor/leader/inspiring person sometimes a KID is really a blessing gift from heaven. Good start of the month you know!
Sometimes her SMILE says, "I LOVE YOU" which should be enough for your liveliness.
Another shoulder on whom I prefer to jump without any hesitation is RK,
He plays a vital role in shifting my eyes towards different dimensions to SEE. You will seriously love him to the core. RK for a reason :)

I told you about my decoration works in last month article right? Do you remember?
Yes. Believe me, You can easily find person who closely mind your words in very short span of time which also enables them to make efforts for relationship.
She came up with a dream catcher for me which shows her prioritized attention of love. My sincere gratitude to sanjana who is solely behind this work. [I might have missed to celebrate these moments. If, I were into WhatsApp world for sure.]
This dream catcher become a best reminder for an existence of her relationship in my life which will also remind me to continue my room decoration works in the absence of WhatsApp which can end up something like
self made "little hanging quote card" which drives me towards ACTION for WORDS I USE. [Yes. My choice is to serve you. Your dreams are my dreams. Your happiness is my happiness]

After office, I sometimes spend time for WhatsApp chats to make sure that, I'm not missing any updates.
This time those hours are replaced by gowtham who were working for hours, days even months to bring out a killer whale in Plastic caps with his team.
Sometimes, being with humans in all their efforts is all they need to build themselves the next better version. Credits to "vanakkam america" for covering this initiative. Added credits to other news channels who took time to have a look. Find his work here.
We are all connected in this planet. We are depend on each other. It's TRUE that, when I throw plastics or waste it will eventually harm or affect you too.
So, I've decided to start working on building best out of waste in my home/company to bring ZERO waste. How about You????

Mid of the month is my caring time, I could get calls from few of my friends asking, "Are you okay?. How is your legs?" It's so kind of them who took time to call me after seeing my Facebook post of my broken leg for my previous article. Those little emotionally surprising moments were really an awesome feeling. However, Sorry about that photo. I make sure that, its not happening in future.

When you don't want to use WhatsApp, you always find options or choices to spend time with something which you love the most. It happens with me in phone communication which turns to be an informative sessions for hours which ends up in
FOUR things as follows,
TWO Take aways,
- Do unschooling is your choice for your kid? Wondering on facing fears in travelling along with your kids acquiring financial freedom? Then, you should read her blogs which will motivate you to live along with a community where everyone practice unschooling allowing their kids to chose their life to LIVE rather preaching their belief system.
- Hippocampus model children's library in Chennai is now closed.

MTC Bus ride without taking mobile to text someone though the bus is waiting empty to serve you enough space to sit. I've been watching outside the window like a kid who finds his window seat in heavy rush. Later, realized that, I took ticket to SRMC instead of Iyyapanthangal depo. However, conductor said he gave ticket till depo saving my embarrassing moment.

The moment you stop texting or fail to update your whatsapp status is the time where your busy friends come to knock at you just to tell you that you're insane facing some mental flaws or terrible disorder. Though, they treat you different, I'm learning to accept their dissimilarities.

I checked my phone less. However, I never missed out on what was happening in "Law of Attraction" WhatsApp group which is all because of entire team who took responsibility on their shoulders. However, On behalf of entire team, I like to add some my special credits to @sanjana who helped us all along to keep us posted with updates even in her feverish days.
Finally, there is a small milestone crossed. Our initiative of "Motta Maadi Sandhippu" is covered in "DTNEXT"

Partial Enlightenment Time:
One day, all of a sudden,
You will get separated from each other;
You will miss conversations of everything;
You can see your dreams getting vanished.
Days will pass by, months, years, until every contacts becomes rare.
One day your children will see all your pictures to ask 'Who are these people?'
At that moment, you will definitely have smile with invisible tears to say,
'IT WAS THEM THAT I HAD THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE WITH'.
"You have only choices. Chose what is needed rather than what you like."
Though the lines are not enough to express rest of my emotions, I'm nailing my 20+ more memories along with loving incidents of this May month inside my heart forever which will be added to my book as living characters.
