Thalipeeth/ Multigrains Flat Bread...

Last few months has been disaster for me things did not go according to us and it is very difficult for me to start new life again without my dreams. I'm just forcing myself so that people around me they feel normal... Once blog use to be part of my life, I use to forget to eat but never forget to take pictures or write post and more then 100 times I use to open my blog and see.. Now it feels like everything is over, everybody says I should move on and starting thinking about new life and new start, but for me life itself is a very big pain and selfish.. I just feel like giving away everything and never look back, then its like I'm being selfish and not thinking about that person for whom I left everything behind and came to be with. Just because of him only I want to start my old life back and my blog is the first thing to start... I think I have learnt a very big lesson that life is very short and nothing happens according to you.. I strongly feel that kids are beginning of the life not the end and god should not call them back so soon, he should allow them also to live and have everything what they deserve and no matter what happens I will bring back my daughter to our life and never leave her.. I know I'm not the only one in this whole world who is going through this pain, why god don't understand we don't deserve this pain, Why he make life so painful and so difficult to live? Sometime I feel god has put full stop to my happiness.. But this time I'm going to tell him you can't do what it feels good to you... I don't know whether I should write all this or not but this is what I'm feeling now..

Thalipeeth is a type of savoury multi-grain flat bread very popular in Maharastra.
