The Ultimate RuleBook to Indian Girls

-
We live in the 21st century where we are to treat men and women equally but alas, society still lives in the 18th century. 

It was high time I finally decided to write on this issue.

Women become the victim and even if they are not the victims, they would behave like one.

The ultimate RULEBOOK for an Indian Girl- An 18-century edition-

  1. Speak less
  2. You have to sacrifice for family
  3. Your choices!? No one gives a damn about it
  4. Sit properly
  5. Don't leave house unnecessarily
  6. Marry a strange, your parents like.
  7. You have to know cooking
  8. and other household works too.
  9. Education!? Why you need one? Your husband, brother, and father have enough of it.
  10. Dress properly
  11. Your voice!? Don't try to raise it!
  12. Do what your parents say!
  13. Freedom?! Remove it from your dictionary even.

Well, the scenario is quite the same but yeah time changed a bit more of it.While some are subtracted, we have a few additions to the list too.

  • Late night parties?! NO NO NO
  • Live-in ?! You may love each other but sharing the same house still needs a stamp called marriage.
  • Be home before 8 pm.
  • No late night work hours.
  • Post decent images on Social Media or else be ready to be shamed on the net.
And the rule list would not end.

While some happen to escape all these, there are some still stuck in them. Only because they LACK awareness and education. They LACK confident and as the saying says,"Together we grow."
Yeah, only TOGETHER we will grow.

Next time someone says,"Dress properly" Ignore them wear what you feel is appropriate.
Do what you is appropriate.
Speak your mind.
No one can restrict your thoughts.
Post what you feel is appropriate.
Raise your voice against the wrong.

Create your own definition of  "APPROPRIATE".
Freedom is the birthright.
Go on and enjoy it.

और वैसे भी कुछ तो लोग कहेंगे !!
लोगो का काम है कहना !!

Until the next post!!
Stay Connected!!

Chapter-7 The Phone Calls

-
It was back then when she just entered class 11th and he was enjoying his pre 12th vacation. She was stressed, taking up science was not, that good choice but she liked challenges!! (P.S. He warned her for not taking up science) He was in Manali on his school trip, but never happen to miss a single opportunity to text her. She was tired of her new schedule and happen to just fall on her bed out of mental and physical stress. She picked up her phone and texted him "Call me when you are free!!" Within minutes her phone rang and it was him. She uttered all her stress and whatever happened the whole day to him. He, being a good listener heard it all. She felt better and hearing his voice made her feel the best. Feeling at the top of the sky, she just wanted to talk about everything happening on both sides of the phone and that's what they did. They talked on until his friends made out to whom he was talking and started to tease him. His friends clicked random pictu...

La vie

Hello Pretty People!! La vie is the French word for "Life" I happen to visit a cancer hospital today and to be honest, I happen to forget all my misery after seeing that of the patients. I was sitting in the waiting area when a young girl about 9-year-old passed by me sitting in a wheelchair and the nurse pushing the wheelchair. Her wheelchair stopped at the reception and the nurse got busy with some documents. We both looked at each other pretending we didn't. I don't know what she thought but I was completely lost in my own thoughts about how life could be so unfair, about how she might be feeling, about how short life could and about the fact that life is so unpredictable. I was feeling broken inside for no reason for a past few days and today when I faced the reality of life, I feel no reason to cry upon my life however tangled it be. Every problem in one's life seems a giant until u realize what worse is happening with others. Be happy because u ...

Change : All what you need to know.

-
One thing that life taught me was "Nothing is Absolute" and "Change is necessary". Then why do people poke me and ask why have I changed over time? Wasn't change mandatory or they missed that lesson of life?? People come and go, and of course, the ones who stay, change over time. And eventually you feel that it isn't right or the person shouldn't have changed, then let me clarify it for you that CHANGE IS NECESSARY OVER TIME. So what became your issue with me!? Did I get rude with you? Then you deserved it somewhere. Did I ignore you? Then I don't feel comfortable with you. Did I stop talking to you? Then I don't feel necessary talking to you. Did I block you? Then I don't feel you should be an audience to my content. Well, I know the issues are limitless and with each perspective, it would add more to the list. ***** And coming to the point that what life would be like without any sort of change or evolution!? Then my...
