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. ☕💭
I packed my dreams in a suitcase bright,Ready to chase the stars at night—But halfway there, I tripped on wonder,And life whispered, “Slow down and ponder.”I boarded a train called Someday Soon,But the view outside stole my tune—Mountains giggled, rivers winked,And suddenly my plans… well, shrank and shrank.I asked a stranger, “Are we there yet?”He...

They say life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.But let’s be honest—those breathtaking moments don’t happen every day. Sometimes, it’s just spilled coffee, traffic jams, and that one slipper that always goes missing when you’re late. Yet, somehow, these tiny, ordinary slices... Continue Reading →
I feel things are going good, oh what a pleasant scare,Like calm before a toddler’s tantrum — peace too rare!I smile at joy, then squint — “Wait, what’s the catch?”Happiness feels borrowed, like socks that don’t quite match.All things slip like sand from hand, that’s life’s grand show,You tighten your grip — whoosh! there it...

When the city hum fades to a whispering breeze,And worries melt under swaying trees,The sky wears smiles in shades of blue,And time decides—“I’ll slow down too.”A squirrel holds meetings on mango trees,While butterflies gossip with honeybees,A brook hums tunes with no degree,Yet sings of joy far better than we.Shoes feel shy; they slip away,As toes...

What are you passionate about? They say passion is fire. But mine? Mine is more like a warm, bubbling pot of stew—comforting, messy, sometimes spicy, but always filling.I’m passionate about many things. In fact, I might just be an emotional multipurpose tool—like a Swiss Army knife but with more glitter and less blade.🖋️ Writing is... Continue Reading →
List three books that have had an impact on you. Why? There are books you read, and there are books that read you. Some pages don’t just flip; they flip you. If I had to line up the literary giants that left footprints on my heart, my top three would be: The Bible, The Monk... Continue Reading →

You're not alone—mental health isn't just about avoiding breakdowns; it's about building daily habits that help you thrive, not just survive.We do yoga for the body, but... Continue Reading →
When is the last time you took a risk? How did it work out? There are two types of people in this world—those who gracefully glide through life like Olympic swimmers, and those who stand at the edge of the pool, calculating how much water their splash will displace. I belonged to the latter category…... Continue Reading →

My daughter’s world isn’t made of words—it’s made of colors, strokes, and endless imagination. Give her a blank sheet, and she’ll turn it into a masterpiece before I can even sip my coffee!

What cities do you want to visit? They say, "Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer," and I couldn’t agree more.

Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met? I wish I could meet Shah Rukh Khan—I love him! Hopefully, one day, I’ll have that chance.
