Grateful '21

-

Well, here is the final year end blog. This year passed by just within a blink. I will not say that 2021 was the best year till date but it was not even the worst, you know! I am just grateful for a lot of things that have happened. From all the negatives to the positives, it all added some value to my life. So here is a thanks to 2021! So here we go...…

A year passed by just within a click,
Moments were cherished in a single blink.
There were memories created worth a recollection,
While there were incidents that made you feel dejection. 

It wasn't a year to be titled perfect,
But nor was it a year to regret.
There were seconds of tears and minutes of joy,
Times to gratify as well as annoy.

To the people that became family,
To a few who left.
Some who deserted me,
While some who supported.

From late night fun with family,
To early morning coffees for class.
From meeting for just a second,
And laughing for a lot of hours.

Kudos to those friends who bore with my drama,
Cheers to my family who handled me when I got out of hand.
There is not much I could have done,
But except to thanking a few gems.

There was not something great I did this year,
But for sure I learned from my mistakes.
From accepting the real me and loving her,
And focusing on little things to enjoy!

Thanks to every single one of you who entered my life. I am also thankful to the ones who left and made me feel strong. Thank you 2021 to make me fall in love with myself and making me appreciate myself when I was busy looking for flaws. Thank you for teaching that nothing last forever but you can rejoice over those happy memories. Thank you for everything that has made me a better person now.

Happy New Year to everyone. Enjoy your life to the fullest and appreciate your real self the way it is.

An Independence with No Freedom

-

Happy Independence Day to another day without freedom for a woman to stay. It is again a horrid time where,  instead of schooling a man, a woman is asked to follow the rules again . The rules are still for us to walk in the dark and not to punish the man who commits a crime in broad daylight. What kind of system is it? Where the perpetrators are roaming free, while the family of the victim is finding a way to believe that  "this can't be it".  The institutions around the country are setting rules to secure a woman by curtailing her freedom to roam around when it is not even her fault.  A doctor on duty for 36 hours was subject to one of the worst crimes in human history. Yet, it is another story where society will say,  "Why did she wear that?" "Why was she out in the middle of the night?" "Why was she alone in a seminar hall at such a time? ". A woman committed to her job, saving people's lives, was deprived of it all. It is ironic that ...

Happy Dad's Day!

  Now, you all must be wondering why I wished "Happy Dads' Day" instead of "Happy Father's Day", well the reason is the quote above, "Any Man can be a father but it takes a special man to be a DAD". We all appreciate our mothers for the amazing things they do but the most under-appreciated member of our household is probably, our dad. It is not that they are under-appreciated, but rather the lack of realisation we have towards them. They are always present but we always focus on their absence, they have a secret way of showing their love, yet we focus on the criticisms they give us. While our mothers stand next to us in our fight, our dad is the shield to protect us from the harm. They are the ones who teach us to dream big and work for it. We always fail to appreciate our fathers, while we all can say all the emotional things to our mother, we fail to express it properly with our dad. Yes, our dad yells at us, but have we ever seen the regret they...

Mother: THE BEST JOB

-

The other day, a friend sent me a reel in which the person said, " The world has become such a place that, one can say, I wanna be a lawyer, a doctor, an architect, but not 'I want to be a great mother' when of all the jobs it is one of the toughest. " This statement has become known as a feminist statement. A person not wanting to be a mother and have a family is, a feminist, while the true reason to have the whole movement was that, every woman irrespective of what she chooses to be in life, should be recognized as an equal member of the society. It is about giving the same opportunity and recognition. Amidst all that, somehow it has become about being aggressively competitive with men, trying to fight all, being greater than men, and  not being able to say that I want to be the best mother. When all it was ever about, was equal space irrespective of gender. A woman who says " I want to be the best mother ", is conceived to be weak or fragile, when actual...
