March Madness?

Free March 2025 Calendar Download

By the time you read this, it will already be March in Kenya. Depending on your timezone you’re either still in February or are in March too. I’m not going to lie, I’m happy for February to end and March to begin. February was a tough month for me- emotionally, physically and mentally.

Still, in a weird way I feel like I grew more in February than I have ever done in my entire life. I finally learnt how to set real boundaries, say no, take back my power and connect with the universe. Things I have been attempting to do for years. I think the best lessons hurt the most and that was the case last month. There were some extremely painful moments but they helped me step up and start on the right path towards being the person I actually want to be instead of being stuck as the person I had become.

I am thankful for the many, many, MANY painful life lessons that have already come my way this year with only one sixth of it down. Seriously, it feels like these many are probably enough for now. Perhaps even enough for this year… Lessons learned, stop please…

Oh and I mentioned I was dealing with a viral infection and still am so my apologies if I’m a little M.I.A.

Anyway, wishing everyone a wonderful month of March. May the ups be plenty and the downs be at a minimum.

Edit:

I just Googled what March Madness is because I’ve heard it here and there but never bothered to find out what it is. But since I titled this post March Madness I thought I should find out. It’s definitely not what I expected lol.

I recently published my first book and would be honoured if you took a minute to check it out here.

  1. Big hugs, Pooja!!! ❤️🙏🏻😊

    1. Hugs!! 🤗❤️

  2. There is madness in March

    1. And in every other month too 🙂

  3. This is why they call it school of life, they missed “February” school of life. Good luck with all the lessons learned, expect more to come.
    Anyway, I’m looking forward to March and all the spring celebrations!!!

    1. Haha very true. Thanks so much and although I expect many more in my future I hope the universe gives me a break for a while lol. Happy March, have a wonderful month!

      1. We all need a break. Happy March to you as well

  4. MARCH forward, you will be fine, hang in there, you are a voice and presence in this world✌🏼

    1. Haha thanks so much, that’s so kind of you to say 😊

  5. LOL! Funny post, but I’m glad you’re taking positives away your tough month!

    Being in the States, I’m all too familiar with the phrase in question. I’m not much of a sports fan, either. People here wear team shirts all the time, but today I saw a guy wearing a hilarious t-shirt that said, “Yay! Go sport! Do the thing! Make the points!” I think I might need that one to ramp up for “March Madness,” LOL!

    1. Lol thanks! I think when life gets tough all you can do is focus on the positives. I’m not into sports either so I really had no idea what March Madness was and then I was like “Oh!” 😅

  6. The 1/6th thing… IKR 🤷‍♂️ Is it me or is time actually speeding up? Of course, we have no reference point, but if enough of us feel this way, it might be a little validation 😂

    1. Yesss I feel like time is genuinely somehow speeding up and refuse to believe it isn’t lol 😂

  7. I am over here BIG MAD that you didn’t know what the phrase “March Madness” is for. 😩😫🤣

    I’m glad you know now, though. And I hope you get to feeling more like yourself soon, lady.

    1. I know, it’s crazy that I only just found out what March Madness was but now I know lol! 😂
      Thanks, I’m much better today 😊

  8. Totally thought your post was about the tournament for a minute before reading 😂

    1. If only I had Googled earlier it could have been about the tournament 😅

  9. I just finished social media for March for the restaurant I work for. People like basketball way too much, our bar will be packed with people and cheering and buckets of beer.

    1. Interesting, I guess it’s great you’ll get more customers although it’s probably going to be more work which can be tough. I don’t really understand when people get really into any sport but to each their own I guess.

  10. 🙏🌹🌝

    Aum Shanti

  11. Glad you made it through Feb and hope that March is much better for you.

    1. Thanks, hope you have a great March too.

    of Effort or Not as it Didn’t Work With the SSD External
    Drive Work Around
    For the Old

    Anyway Long Story
    Shorter For February Ending
    And March Beginning Freshly Spring

    A Much Faster Computer Now Accommodating
    All that Back-Up Now LeSSoN LEarned Always

    Have Two Time Machine
    Back-Ups On Hand Just
    in Case All Goes Wrong in
    Computer Purgatory Again

    Wondering if ‘The Soul’
    of the Computer is
    Banished Forever

    Even though i Had the
    Majority of Photos Spread
    All About Online too so Much
    Easier Still With A Photo Library in Tact

    Glad You Are Evolving in the Play of Life too

    Yes So Many
    Lessons Always
    Coming New Next True…

    Yet Not in the Big Top Circus
    Orange that is Currently the US of ‘A’

    Trying
    to Stay
    UpWind For Now…

    Honestly the Computer
    Purgatory was Kind of a
    Nice Learning Experience

    (i Can Say That Easier Now
    That All the Breakdowns are fixed)

    And Distraction From the Big Top too…

    Other than that

    as Usual the

    ‘March Hare’ is On the Loose!…
    iNDeeD A Mad Mad World it is Too..:)

    1. Oh no, sorry to hear about your computer that sucks but glad you got a faster one. You have to be really careful with technology because one malfunction and we lose so much. It seems you guys really need a distraction right now for sure because what else can be done. Enjoy the warmer, greener weather and don’t worry too much. Life goes on and eventually things get better even if they seem grim right now.

  13. The good news: March gives you three more days than February did. Imagine what you can accomplish!

    1. That’s true!

  14. For me, February went faster than January – January felt like it was 60 days long! Glad you made it through the month!

    1. Oof sorry to hear that, it sucks when a month is really difficult and seems like it’s going on forever. Thanks! Happy March!

        1. You as well!

  15. “The best lessons hurt the most…” I really love that line. Get well soon, Pooja! Happy March madness😉🩷

    1. Thank you, haha Happy March Madness to you as well! 😅💕

  17. Wishing you a happy March my friend. Take care and feel better soon

    1. Thanks so much, I’m doing better today.

      1. Take care. 🥰

  18. Hahahah. I was wondering WHY you were going to talk about basketball 😀

    Anyway, so sorry to hear you’re dealing with a viral infection. Those things can be nasty. Especially since you can’t take antibiotics to deal with them. Hope you get fully better soon!

    1. I played a little basketball in high school for fun but clearly don’t know enough about it to know what March Madness is. Now I’m thinking I should have just written a basketball related post 😅

      Thanks so much, yeah it sucks but I just have to get through it.

  19. Here’s to hoping that the madness in March is the best kind of madness!

    1. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏽

  20. winds of march
    to march! the mad scientist
    yes just so
    you must learn to say no!
    boundaries
    no bombs
    bullets drips runs or error
    of the night sultry sundry terror
    of just being
    alive
    she cried
    and could not
    would not stop nor drop
    thanks Jim!

    1. Yesss it’s all about boundaries!

      1. and the music. but it must be a little louder!

  21. Happy February 💮🌷🏵️

    1. You too 💕

  22. Happy March 1st, Pooja! 💗
    March is the month of expectation.
    ~ Emily Dickinson

    1. Thank you and love that quote, how true it is! 💕

      1. You’re welcome, Pooja.

  23. I think February taught me something I was trying to figure out almost all my life, too. Get well soon Pooja.

    1. It seems so many of us had awakenings in February. Another friend and I were just saying that too. May these lessons enhance our lives. Thanks so much.

  24. Best wishes for a lovely month👍👍👍

    1. Thanks, wishing you a lovely month too 😊

      1. Thank you so much

        1. You’re very welcome.

  25. February was a tough month for me too. I had to spend an entire week working from home due to subzero temperatures, and having to stand outside in the mornings to wait for a shuttle bus that sometimes doesn’t show up due to drivers calling in “sick” for the morning shift.

    Yes growth is very difficult and uncomfortable, but the things you have succeeded working on are vitally important. Remember, even when we have setbacks, we know our way back! We don’t always see our strength until we’re forced to use it, and of course with practice we get better at it. It has been a few years for me, and I find I still need to mindfully remind myself to keep following the steps. I think it’s a myth that it becomes easy and effortless, I think it becomes EASIER but we still need to put in the maintenance work. We’re a finely oiled machine, of course we need to do regular maintenance! 😉😊

    1. Oh no sorry to hear that. Sounds like you had a tough month. But hopefully the weather will get better now.

      Yes, absolutely those lessons are important!

  26. For me March is exam time ! 😀😀

    1. Good luck, I’m sure you’ll do well! 😁

  27. The last 2 weeks have held a lot of drama, issues, and discussions. I’m ready for it to be over, but alas, we still haven’t gotten to the other side of it yet. Hoping March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb in more ways than the weather!

    1. Sorry to hear that and hoping March will be better for you!

  28. I’m with you and don’t want to say anything bad and jinx the rest of the year (lol) … March is total madness but wouldn’t playing basketball be better than the obstacles we’ve already faced!? I hope you get as many free-throws as your arms want, double dribbles with no fouls, traveling minus any penalties, awesome ankle supporting shoes, cool eye shielding, and no personal fouls for the remainder of the game / month / year! You are a champion, Pooja <3 ~ Be good to yourself, MVP! 😀

    1. Lol March is definitely madness! Aww thank you and have an awesome March too!

  29. Hope you keep feeling better! March Madness is a time when we in the US can forget all our difficulties and enjoy some young folks play basketball, not so much for the money (most will never be pros) but for the sport! Happy March!

    1. Thanks so much! Yes, I just read about that and it was interesting to learn more about March madness. Have a great month!

      1. Thanks Pooja! Looking forward to the games!

  30. I figured you were using the basketball metaphor cleverly. I’m sorry your infection goes on. Viruses are as unpleasant as they are enigmatic. I appreciate lessons learned and maybe enough for now. I hope your health builds back up soon.

    1. Haha I could have had I Googled what March Madness was earlier. Thanks so much. Hope you have a lovely March.

  31. Lol.. blessings, Pooja. Im.glad yourr on the up and up my friend.

    1. Thanks so much 😊

  32. Haha, that’s quite an illustration you have there.

    1. Haha thanks so much.

  33. 💜💓💐 Strong recovery wishes! 💐💓💜

    1. Thank you! ☺️

  34. March madness is needed . February is always the worst month (Sorry for those born on in Feb lol)

    1. Lol I lowkey agree and feel like fun people are rarely born on February haha.

  35. Nice post as always

    1. Thanks so much.

  36. I hope March is better for you and that you learn many more lessons + that the infection goes away! I find that cranberry juice can be really good for fighting infections 🙌💗

    1. Fingers crossed and I’ve actually got some cranberry juice a couple of days ago, thank you! ☺️

  37. Get well soon!❤️

    1. Thank you! 💗

  38. Sorry to hear you had to go through so much, but that’s the way of it sometimes, isn’t it? With one thing, comes another and then it just feels crazy and over the top until it finally eases. Hoping you are entering a more calm and relaxed period now 🙏 💕 😊

    1. Some times in our life are so difficult but I think those moments really help us learn lessons we need in life. Thanks so much, have a great March 💕😊

  39. I hate this for you! Hugs to you and can’t wait for you to return to the blogging world when you are ready too and not a minute before.

    1. Thanks so much and hopefully I’ll be back in a couple of days.
