I have seen her speech on Facebook and Whats-app messages and decide to read her books. She is well read and shows relationships from different paradigms. It's a quick read, however it covers topics from childhood to death.
In today's so called busy life we forget what it meant to be human; as she mention in one of the article every human being in search of three things - sukh, santhi and sneh rest doesn't matter. We should stop taking our loved one for granted and invest time to make our relationships stronger.
This is a good read for traditional, modern and hybrid (traditional + modern) generations.
"સંબંધો બાંધતા બહુ વાર લાગે છે – તમે લાગણીનું બી વાવો પછી એને સમજદારીનું ખાતર, સંવેદનાનું પાણી અને સ્નેહનો તડકો આપવો પડે છે. ગેરસમજણોનું નીંદણ કરી નાખવું પડે છે, ત્યારે એક સુંદર છોડ કે વૃક્ષનું નિર્માણ થાય છે."
"એવી જ રીતે બાળકને સત્ય શીખતા અને પચાવતા સમય લાગવાનો છે. એને સત્યની સમજ પાંગરતા કે પરિપક્વ થતાં સમય લાગશે જ… એ બધા સમય દરમિયાન એને જે આપવું પડે છે એ બહુ અગત્યનું છે. વહાલનું પાણી, શિસ્ત અને શિખામણનો તડકો, ક્યારેક સજા સ્વરૂપે નિંદણ, તો દુનિયામાં ચાલતી અને જોવા મળતી બૂરાઈઓથી બચાવવા નિયમોની વાડ કરવી પડે છે. ત્યારે જ એક પૂરેપૂરા ફળદાર વૃક્ષનું નિર્માણ થાય છે."

It is collection of articles on individual relationships we share with our family, life partner and friends written by her for a Gujarati news paper. Every single articles leaves u wondering about the similarities of those words with your own life....

એક બીજા ને ગમતા રહીએ...સાચે જ સુખી થવાની નાની નાની ફોર્મ્યુલા લખી છે...નાના માં નાની બાબતો ને જાણી એમાંથી સુખ મેળવવું..સાથી ને સમજવું...અદભુત સત્ય લેખન

The book was nice. Some of the chapter were really awesome and she has made some really good points. I like reading her books as she gives really idea of society and also gives practical thoughts which is great. It was that great book though but I like reading such books. She has covered really nice topics in this book which shows bitter truth of society and also where exactly we go wrong and what’s not right!
