…End of the day

We're going to get married at the end of the day.
Not only is this an abnormal thing for me to say
But it's the way
That he said it
Not excitedly
Not as if it was his dream
But as if he would bet it.
We're going to get married one day.
As if it were an inevitable truth
Staring at him questionably
Thinking.. He has some screws loose.. (Actually, he has none of them)
Then he starts to explain to me
All the reasons we're going to get married one day
Promising everyday after every fight,
That we’ll never fight again…
I never turn down an argument..
Nor he will..
But everything he said… Surprisingly made perfect sense (Sometimes)
And some times created a Cold war…
There was an argument I couldn't win
Caz he ended up saying something rare..(…!!!!)
Surrendering is like a best hobby of both of Us.
Though, I have learnt the same from him…
N now…I feel..
We're going to get married one day.

Being a woman - A Woman of Substance...

Every woman carries her responsibility differently. Please don’t compare . A woman wakes up early and gets ready. She prepares her kids for school. She makes breakfast for the entire family. Serves breakfast. She prepares lunch and dinner. She makes her kids do homework. She manages household chores like dusting, watering plants, washing clothes and ironing them. Makes sure, her house is clean all the time. A woman, a housewife has a lot of things to do. No need to count them. No one can count them either. On the contrary, there is another woman, who is not a homemaker, but a working mum. She wakes up. Makes food for everyone. She sends her kids to school. Leaves for work leaving some household chores, which she does anyway after coming back. Now here, don’t you feel she needs some rest? Don’t you feel she needs some help? Domestic help? Why calling her husband or someone from the family for help is considered to be deplorable? I agree with the fact that eve

Cheers to 8 amazing years of togetherness.

I had no idea what marriage entails. Marriage, like everything else in life, cannot be taught or understood before it is lived. It needs to be felt. Sometimes it feels joyous, sometimes it hurts. There are married couples who claim they are still madly in love. For them, marriage doesn’t require major adjustments or sacrifices. They naturally know how to keep each other happy, how to live a perfectly balanced and harmonious life. But for us, we struggled with such concept of a perfectly harmonious marriage because ours’ was far different from it. I even thought something was dreadfully wrong with our marriage by comparing our relationship to other people’s. I thought we were an anomaly. We used to swim through turbulent waters ineptly. We even survived a few tsunamis together. Despite such accidents, we swam gawkily and rose above the surface.  It’s certainly not the prettiest picture of marriage but perhaps the most realistic, the one that helps marriages last a lifetim

On being called the #f-word

A woman usually has to face what almost all brown and healthy women go through - being reproved for the colour of the skin or the size she is …and being told that she is too tall, too short, too fat or too dark. The #TOO part of every word is bizarre, I feel. Here in this post, I am sharing few experiences of my friends who went through or are still going through such illogical ideologies of our so called society… My friend’s aunt would keep asking her mum to do ‘ubtan’ - a home remedy with home ingredients including chickpea flour, curd etc. to ‘lighten’ my friend's skin tone. A lot of face packs, several parlor sittings, face washes etc and comments were a part and parcel of her growing up years.   WHY? I don’t get the point that why a girl always has to be white or wheaty? Isn’t she beautiful when dusky or dark? Isn’t she a golden hearted? Another friend of mine was asked to eat sprouts for her breakfast, 2 rotis and 1 bowl dal for lunch and salad f
