Is marriage the only thing of importance in life..
In every decision i am making... i am constantly reminded by people around me , in more ways than one, that marriage is the only ultimate goal i should keep in mind..

    hi dwiti..

    it may sound a bit conservative.. but how much over we indians blurt out about being a developing nation, the social mindset is still reeling atleast 50 years behind time..

    so it should not come as a surprise when people keep reminding a girl that her ultimate destiny is marraige..
    and lets accept it.. all these women of liberal thoughts ((as they prefer to call themselves these days..)) how many of them actually live the same lives as they lived prior to their marriages..

    world does change with a marriage for a woman in india.. and well lets at least for now embrace it..

    ((said it all with a risk of sounding a lot conservative.. but this is the truth that lies at the bottom of it all,, aint it..??))

    :-)

    Marriage is not the only but the one of the most important turning point in ones life.... in your case it was reminded as a goal... i feel every young girl keep it in her mind whenever she talks to any guy very personally.... girls are a lot more smarter ..its my feeling.. someone to listen...someone to share....something stable ...something progressive.... something you call ultimate expression of love .. all directly or indirecly leads to marriage... you may or may not change but life defenitely gets changed after marriage... your well whishers just remind u.. be careful... life to too short to enjoy and that if 2/3 is married life... include it as a whole in the party..

    Even i believe in the relationship called marriage..more so because i admire the bond shared by my parents... it doesnt exactly stem from same choices or dreams but an understanding.
    But what i am unable to understand is the comprimise i am supposed to make, already , when i'm no where close to marriage ..

    Well the fact is that the day u get married you will be constantly reminded by the same people that having kids is the ultimate goal that you should keep in mind...
    but the onus is on you...its all upto you i guess and in the end it all boils down to you persuing to goals that YOU set up for yourself..
    btw,nice blog you got here

    I agree.. the decision is finally one's own.. but the continuous pestering doesn't help :)

Harder

Harder  ~   Becky Hemsley 2023 The harder we love Means the harder we grieve The harder it is To go on when they leave The harder to sleep And the harder to wake To know they’re not here With each breath that we take It’s hard to look forward And hard to look back Stuck in the middle, Imprisoned and trapped Where the harder the darkness The harsher the light, The harsher this world That keeps spinning with life But when that world’s feeling So painful and hard And you can’t imagine Escaping the dark It might help a little To know it’s because The harder we grieve Means the harder we loved

Life Death and the ones left in between

How do you tell a 9 year old that her father is no more.... As adults, most of us grapple with the thought and logic (if any) behind a dear one leaving us... and I was suddenly left wondering what to say to this 9 year old !!! For the first time in a long time, I was left speechless, not because I didn't want to say anything, but simply because I didn't know what to say.. Does it make sense if I tell you that all of a sudden, I became the child with a rubbery tongue, and the 9 year old had turned into the adult, trying to respond sensibly and sensitively. I was stumped by the questions thrown at me.  I felt so insufficient in my responses, but the child took even that in her stride. The strength of character in facing not just the reality but also fighting each dilemma in her own sweet way left me in deep thought for some time to come. I hope no one has to face what this child did...  PS: I was faced with this recently when a close friend lost her husband, and I was told ...

Reservations

-
Arjun Singh seems to have finally caught the media's attention..though for all the wrong reasons. A single statement of his regarding reservation has suddenly shown the country, that anyone can stand up against injustice... students being no exception. Students all across the country are voicing their opinions , loud and clear. We claim that our society is a democracy , where the Right to Equality is a fundamental right. But isnt any kind of reservation a direct contradiction to this right ! The existing reservation itself is not appropriately alloted, then why is the government interested in increasing the percentage is a mystery to me. Besides the reservation should in proportion to the percentage of the entire population of the section. Isn't it better solution if the students who qualify for a course are provided with financial support.... instead of reserving the seats and reducing the quality of students. For all those who strongly feel about it , please sign this petitio...
