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. ☕💭
When crayons become magic wands,And walls turn into fairy lands,When mud pies are five-star cuisine,And giggles rule the in-between—Let them be little, let them play,Don’t rush them to grow today.Their world’s still painted in wonder’s hue,Each question starts with, “But why can’t I too?”We teach them math, we teach them speed,But forget they only need—A...

Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you. They say life teaches the best lessons outside the classroom. But on one Teacher’s Day in grade 10, I learned something even my textbooks couldn’t capture — a syllabus-free chapter on kindness, taught by a stranger whose name I never knew.The morning...

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to have razor-sharp memory, quick wit, and an almost superhuman ability to solve problems?

Are there any activities or hobbies you've outgrown or lost interest in over time? They say hobbies shape our personality, filling the gaps life often leaves behind.

What makes you feel nostalgic? Nostalgia is that unexpected guest who rings your doorbell uninvited yet is always welcome. It sneaks in with a whiff of an old book or the jingling notes of a childhood tune. Suddenly, you’re back in your mom’s kitchen, wearing mismatched socks, waiting impatiently for her to serve steaming hot... Continue Reading →
What is your all time favorite automobile? When it comes to automobiles, people often glorify Lamborghinis, Rolls Royces, or Teslas. But for me, the humble auto rickshaw🛺🛺🛺🛺🛺🛺—yes, the three-wheeled marvel—is the true king of the road. It doesn’t boast a roaring engine or sleek aerodynamics, but it carries stories, heated arguments over fare, and occasionally,... Continue Reading →
Do you ever see wild animals? Exploring the untamed world of wild animals is nothing short of a magical experience. Watching them in their natural or semi-natural habitat is like stepping into a live action documentary. For me, zoos have always been like a gateway to wonderland. Every visit is a new chapter in my... Continue Reading →
What's the coolest thing you've ever found (and kept)? "Memories aren’t just kept—they’re lived, each time you hold them close." It’s amazing how certain things—small yet priceless—hold an entire world of memories. For me, it’s my parents' 1982 wedding invitation. We found it during a declutter session two years back when my cousin handed it... Continue Reading →
