The first man in my life

Whenever I saw him I had a Twinkle in my eyes, I loved to be cuddled by him, I feel safe in his arms, he gives the comfort I want, he is a dream come true for me, his every touch is memorable and even without he saying I know he is always there for me. He is adorable, I really love him…
I still remember those days when he used to be awake at night cos’ I was not well, he never showed his tears to me, and he is one who taught me to be strong, He taught me how to drive, he encouraged me to overcome my fears, I must not miss telling, he is the first person to Kiss me…
I hold his hand and feel great and safe, I always feel like a winner with him by my side. I liked his dressing sense, I used  to imitate him when on computer, I liked the way he watched cricket and got excited, when he wears his specs, awe' he  gives a tough time to all the heroes in the world. I know he is the best man in my life.

I grew up knowing his experiences , the bed time stories he shared were always inspirational, I can still see his face bright with a wrinkle or two, but he is as awesome as he is... always for me.



I love you DAD, I respect you for all you are, you are the first ever man in Life and I’m proud of you.
Thank You God, I'm blessed with this Man in my Life :)

Most Unwanted!

Forgotten Age – Most Unwanted!

Twinkle in the eye, but darkness in existence; the Indian girl child –

One day I was cleaning my desk, when my niece who is six years old came next to me and said “Masi , ‘m I unwanted , It seems that parents don’t like a girl child. My birth must be troubling everyone in the family.” I looked at her shocked. Honey! who the hell told you this? And she started crying? It was not important who told her, but the fact that still people live and believe this fact is a shame.

The Indian girl child is outlined by our country’s traditions. Discrimination of gender equality, female infants dumped in trash, unborn fetuses sniffed in the womb, all this continues in the society .There is no end to this cruel ritual practices . Our society has dealt the girl child a rough hand, starting even before birth, till the end of life.
The number of sexual abuse and domestic violence cases against women clearly throws light on the fact that girl child in India do not enjoy even basic rights; their health and education. They are deprived of their own lives. The cost of this neglect is high, both for the girl child and for society.

Let’s get aware and rather make an attempt to envision a society that is sensitive, aware and free from prejudice that affects the girl child.Grab any opportunity of decision-making for the advancement of the girl child.

I'm the first one to to take a step ahead...what about you?

When I read what anu wrote, it was shocking! I started collecting thoughts, to pen down an article/blogpost to strengthen anu’s thought- or may be INDIAs thought! Mind ran faraway searching for similar instances, and I broke down ashamed of our societal morals and the way we neglect NATURE and its rule. Moment after that, I thought of cementing these cracks with a positive story, which I witnessed. I know a family (Name doesn’t matter), who had a girl child, later when they tried for a boy (now, this is weird), the lady was pregnant with twin babies…both girls (This happened several years back, when sex determination was not illegal). Lady and her husband took a little time to digest this! But, husband stood up accepting twin girls with a proud smile on his face. Entire family danced in joy to welcome TWIN STARS! Now, they are awesome family together! WHO DOESN’T WANT A GIRL CHILD NOW?


Thank you Soham :)
