Welcome to Sharon’s Read and Reflect — a cozy corner for curious minds and wandering thoughts! ✨ I’m Sharon Clara Fernandes, someone who believes reading adds wings to the mind and writing gives it a voice. 📚 Here, I pour my thoughts, a dash of humor, and a sprinkle of reflection into every piece I write. The more we read, the more we grow — and I’m learning right along with you! So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and let’s journey through words together. ☕💭
What bores you? Life is a beautiful melody, but sometimes, it gets stuck on repeat. The same routine, the same tasks, the same conversations—monotony creeps in like an uninvited guest. While some find comfort in predictability, for others, it’s the slow death of excitement. As Mark Twain wisely said, “The secret of getting ahead is... Continue Reading →
Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) often face unique challenges in academic settings. For many, exams are not just a test of knowledge but a test of endurance, focus, and emotional resilience. The traditional classroom setting, with its emphasis on prolonged concentration and quiet study, can sometimes feel more like an obstacle than a... Continue Reading →
What is your favorite drink? If you ask me how many cups of coffee I drink a day, the answer is simple—until my mom shouts.

Who are your favorite people to be around? They say, "Good friends are like stars. You don’t always see them, but you know they’re always there." I couldn’t agree more. My family is my world, but my friends? They are the chaos in my otherwise structured life, the therapists I don’t pay, and the stress... Continue Reading →
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” – and in my case, that step was taken in a pair of Khadim’s shoes.A few years ago, I stumbled upon the comfiest pair of shoes ever. It was love at... Continue Reading →
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to have razor-sharp memory, quick wit, and an almost superhuman ability to solve problems?

Share one of the best gifts you've ever received. They say, "The greatest gifts are not wrapped in paper but in love." Looking back, I realize how true this is. I have received many gifts—small and big, expensive and simple—but what makes them precious is the thought, love, and memories attached to them.Since childhood, my... Continue Reading →
Write about your approach to budgeting. They say, "A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went." And yet, every month, I find myself asking, “Where did it go?”Budgeting is like dieting—you start with good intentions, make a solid plan, and then somewhere in between, temptation takes over. One...

Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you? "Love for the country isn’t in grand speeches; it’s in small, everyday choices that uplift its people." Patriotism is a funny thing. Some think it’s about waving flags and singing the national anthem with tears in their eyes. Others believe it’s about debating policies, questioning... Continue Reading →
Have you ever unintentionally broken the law? I take pride in being a law-abiding citizen—never intentionally or unintentionally breaking any rules.

If there were a biography about you, what would the title be? Life, as I see it, is a delightful mix of surprises—sometimes a rainbow, sometimes a rollercoaster.

What were your parents doing at your age? They say history repeats itself, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could replay it just once? If I had the power to rewind time, I’d go straight to my mother’s life when she was my age—watching, learning, and maybe even sneaking in a little advice (not... Continue Reading →
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? Interesting question. If I had the power to change one law, I would rewrite the tax policy! I work hard for a full month, dedicating my energy, sacrificing time with family, skipping weekend naps, and surviving endless meetings. Then, salary... Continue Reading →
Write about your dream home. "Home is where the heart is—but a little red brick and wood don’t hurt either!"
