My blog, Lamhe (Moments), reflects my attitudes towards family, friends, society, and myself. My varied posts pertain to my life, Lamhe. I consider myself fortunate to have shared my life with individuals of various cultures, backgrounds, nationalities, and perspectives, as well as those of varying intelligence/perspective.
I have experienced a variety of turning points in my life, some of which were adventurous and others of which were unpleasant, but there were also numerous instances reminiscent of fairy tales. I believe that life is an accumulation of lessons that must be experienced in order to be perceived, and I am pleased that I have learned so much from my various life experiences and the people I have met on my life's journey. In LAMHE, I have attempted to convey my past encounters and experiences, and I will continue to do so in the future. In fact, I would describe my education as encyclopaedic and eclectic, as I have studied a wide range of subjects. I hold a bachelor's degree in dance and music, a master's degree in counselling, a master's degree in literature, a master's degree in performing arts, and a doctorate in music therapy. I also feel fortunate to have worked in a variety of fields, from stage performer to radio and television artist, whether it was dancing, acting, announcing, or modelling, as well as from teaching to media, counselling, and sales and marketing. Believe me, I appreciated every classified work, as evidenced by my numerous posts.
I would not be who I am today without the influence of my father. Mr. Rajendra Pradeep was not only my father, but also my mentor, my guide, my inspiration, my strength, my critic, and my best friend. He began his career as a lecturer in English and psychology at MD University in Rohtak, Haryana, India, before retiring as its dean, registrar, and vice-chancellor. He was the winner of one of the most prestigious "Khwaja Ahmad Abbas" award from Urdu Sahitya Academy in India. He has also written numerous articles, speeches, stories, and plays for magazines, radio, and the stage. We are six brothers and sisters, and I can say with great pride that my father has had a tremendous impact on each and every one of us.
I stand in reverence and gratitude, poised to dedicate Lamhe to the memory of my beloved father, the late Sh. Rajendra Pradeep. His luminous spirit, his unwavering support, and his boundless love have infused every word, every sentiment, and every cherished Lamhe with an irreplaceable essence. For it is in his absence that I have found the strength to weave tales, to share moments, and to paint memories, each one as captivating as the last. Lamhe stands as a testament to his enduring legacy, a tribute to the man whose presence will forever linger in the echoes of my soul.
