Simultaneously she was working on her second book – to address the challenges of life and provide hope filled solutions.
Miracles do Happen is her second publication, and was launched in November, 2021 by Tahira Kashyap Khurrana.
“Why do we seek the comfort of certainty, When in truth the only certainty is uncertainty; Why do we seek solace in the permanence, When in reality the only permanence is impermanence”- reads page 72 in a poem titled ‘ Impermanence is Permanence’ from the book Miracles do Happen.
A reminder to be mindful of our thoughts as she writes about how “ We don’t reside in bungalows or apartments, We reside in moments of joy and disappointments”; “ Just like we constantly clean our homes, Our mind is like this huge vacuum where our thoughts freely roam”.
Focusing on how prayer is the most important catalyst in her life she writes about how “When the world shuts us out and we are the brink of the crest, Prayer is the greatest sword that we possess”.
A very valuable and thought provoking book, also addresses her message for the world “Don’t compare your progress to that of others, Don’t hate on the good luck of another; Each of us have our own blessings, And our own mission for which we are destined”.
