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.

Somewhere between packing lunch boxes, answering office calls, finding missing socks, and remembering who likes less sugar in their milk, a silent myth is born — “A good mother is always available.”It sounds noble.
