Life Story of the year 2020 !

• 

13 months ago the world was excitedly waiting for my arrival. I was that child who is expected to bring lots of happiness and prosperity, when born.

It was midnight and the date changed from 31st of December 2019 to 1st  of January 2020, I was welcomed with the celebration of hope & positivity.

For the first 2 months, I was everybody’s favorite. I was liked for the festivities & moments I gave them to enjoy & cherish.

But in March 2020, things changed, circumstances changed, people changed and so changed their feelings towards me.

One Virus and the world stopped. Mankind was caught in the catacomb of the sufferings, the pain, the deaths, the mourn, the separations, the distance, the deprivations, the helplessness, the life and the fear.

Though I didn’t create the virus, neither did I spread it, I was blamed !

Neither I asked people to take situation lightly,  nor I permitted them to have gatherings, still was blamed !

Neither I was responsible for their carelessness and ignorance, nor for their over smartness and stupidity, but I was blamed !

No mask, no social distancing, no sanitization was their choice, yet I was blamed !

Mental breakdowns, toxic relationships and trouble some decisions were their failure, sigh… I was blamed !

From being the most awaited year, I was now the most hated year. The year no one ever wished for, the year everyone cursed  & abused.

Perhaps that’s what humans do. For all the disappointments and sorrows they experience, a scapegoat is all they want.

But in this chaos, there was a sound of harmony when the bells jingled and motivating songs were sung.

In the darkness of horror, there was illumination of hope when the lamps & candles were lit.

To overcome the fear of loosing & win the Survival Challange, they kept themselves busy in the challenges which are not so difficult to perform like “pass the blah.. challenge, saree challenge, couple challenge, mom challenge.”

Silly humans, they find happiness in tiny little actions.

Didn’t they enjoy the Dalgona Coffee, the master chef they became, the home schooling n workouts, the video n zoom calls, binge watching n over sleeping, picking up the forgotten hobbies n passion, and most interesting of all flaunting new n designer masks.

Didn’t they realise the value of their life, family n other relations, the healthy body n sound mind, the Earth n it’s resources.

As far as I can see, I gave them a fair chance to analyse, realise and know the worth of everything they have got.

I made them push their limits and prove their capabilities. Explore the new horizon of possibilities with the potential they underestimated.

To be precise they understood that it’s never “The Dominos, Channel & Europe Tour”, all they needed was ” Roti, kapda aur makaan” !

But as everyone wished for all the negativity to end with my exit, I am gone now, hoping that the year 2021 will needful all their expectations and will also escape the embarrassment I have witnessed.

Nevertheless, once disliked, I know I will never be loved again. I am just dreadful past which will be remembered for no good reason.

I will be forever the hated year !

The Wo(man) That I Am !

The woman that I am
is not liked by many,
Not by the guardians of the culture,
I am brought up by my dady !
He was not a society’s man
was a raw rebellion.
A man I would not find in billion !
My childhood was cool
with freedom and liberty.
I was not a tomboy,
just a girl with equality !
My aspirations were valued,
He respected my dreams.
I had right to speak and make decisions,
was allowed to fart n scream !
Education was my dowry
and career was my groom.
Marriage was the last thing,
to be worried about in the room !
Clothes were not my character,
dungaree, shorts or saree.
He bought me everything
from stationery to sanitary !

My brothers were no bodyguards,
they taught me self defense.
Made me a gamer, biker & player,
using unethical lingo was no offence !
Soon passed the time,
I was everything whom the society hates.
But was blessed enough,
found another rebellion mate !
A childhood sweetheart, a partner for life,
He had the daring to accept me as his wife !

Cooking is not my super skill neither do I learn,
We both are homemakers, we both work and earn !
I love my curves, unshaved body with sunburn.
He too likes my imperfections and hair undone !
I still own my personal space,
my independence and identity,
I am his companion, not his responsibility !
Doesn’t drag mandatory wedded symbols,
No judgements please.
I got married for myself,
Not here to please !
I am thirty one, outrageous & not so shy,
Not a part of ladies club,
You already know why !
Married for six years with no kid is still a crime,
Motherhood completes a woman is only what they rhyme !
Being a mother is feeling to be cherished,
They don’t get it, special things take time !
Grateful to the Men in my life,
For believing in me and raising me in such a clan.
I am extremely unapologetic,
For being the woman that I am !

Awareness is the cure !

Sour breasts were like regular menses alarms to me but not this time. Continuous pain and visible swelling on the left side made me a little worried. Soon I could notice the red patches and tenderness with an unbearable ache. Wasting no time I consulted my doctor and I’s diagnosed with a “LUMP“.

Had initial panic attack coz we always think “How could something like this happened to me ?” But the answer was Yes, it’s and I’ve to accept it.

Was fortunate enough that my lump was a harmonal swelling and with effective  treatment it was cured on time.

Though was in a hibernating mode for some time I’m apologetic for not answering to the messages and calls.
But one needs to spend some alone time and give attention to their body, pamper yourself and love the way it is.

Listen to your body and stay positive.
Always be awared about the changes your body posses and take action.

I Bleed…

I bleed…

Bleed with pride

Pride of being a woman

Woman who can bear pain

Pain that’s worth than any joy

Joy of being healthy

Healthy as to give birth

Birth of new life

Life that comes alive

Because I bleed.

Yes I bleed and I ain’t ashamed of it !

The Sound of Happiness

Laugh…

Laugh for happy mind & soul,

Laugh when idle, Laugh when stroll.

Laugh like you don’t care,

Laugh even if they stare.

Laugh your lungs out,

Laugh your thoughts out.

Laugh aloud,

Laugh and give a shout.

Laugh in company,

Laugh when lonely.

Laugh and release,

Laugh and live life with ease.

So Laugh,

Coz it’s the sound of happiness !

Shooting Star

I ain’t no pearl no gemstone sold,

Neither silver, platinum or gold.

I’m diamond, precious and rare,

You can’t afford me, can only stare.

Think you can lock me, She’s all mine.

But you can’t stop me, I’ll still shine.

Think you can gaurd me, saving me from the world,

I ain’t no straight hair girl, I can manage my curls.

I ain’t no privilege, no luxury, no treat,

I’m the air, without you can’t breath.

You think you owe me, have an obsession,

You are mistaken, I ain’t your possession.

I ain’t no moon, a calm beaming patch

I’m a crazy shooting star,

Out of your reach, once I detach.

A flash in the universe here or nowhere

Ask for a wish and I’ll be there !

Words…..

Words make us laugh,

Words make us cry.

Words make us proud,

Words make us shy.

Some have less, some have more,

They make us believe, they make us sure.

Words sometimes harsh,

Make us hurt.

Sometimes mild,

Mend our heart.

Words make us grown up,

Sometimes reveals the child.

Words have the superpowers,

They give us strength.

All we have for eachother,

Is the trail of words,

That never ends !

My Everyday….

Every day is a fun day with him.

Switching off the alarm after several failed attempts of turning the snooze off.

With his voice in the background asking me to wake up.

Me struggling with the duvet to let me free, with one eye open and motivating the second one to do the same.

Drinking the home made magic potion just after getting up from the bed.

Looking at him to get enlightened by his gleaming smile before I start my day.

Preparing morning tea while humming all time cherished songs and giving company to the radio.

Having tea with freshly baked jingles made by us while observing several subjects from the balcony.

Giving reviews on the same, as we are the critics of our colony.

Also adding on some interesting voice overs to the strangers chatting on the road and make our own kind of versions.

Listen to the problems of the birds, stray dogs & cows while feeding them.

But also accepting scoldings by the neighbours for this peta act.

Reading the newspaper for hours & hours, like we have to by-heart the news.

Spending too much of time in the washroom, thinking, it’s the only agenda of the day.

Driving to work, enabled with his traffic updates echoing in my ears, alerting about the vehicles around me on the road in the radius of 360 degrees.

Sipping up the ginger tea complimented by the drags of our customary brand at our favourite tea joint in the evening.

Giving beneficial but not at all required advice in free and abundance to lucky ones who fortunately choose to have tea at the same place.

Driving back home, listening to our rejoiced playlist but with a condition to keep the headphones’ volume low.

Cooking my favourite dish according to his recipe and changes in the ingredients.

Sharing the thick & thin, failures & achievements, proposals & rejections of the day with lots of spiced up gossip about who said and did what ?

Going for night walk to enjoy an orange candy and catching up with friends.

Extracting all the latest updates from the universe to get updated.

Simply gazing at the stars in the dark sky sitting in the porch, wasting time and thinking too much about nothing.

Arranging the bed and spreading the duvet ready to muffle me.

Keeping drinking water in a copper jug before going to bed, so that it turns into a magic potion by the next morning.

Giving a good night kiss to him.

And at last, praying to almighty to bless him in the heaven and send my love to him everyday, just like he has been sending it since three years.

Every day is a fun day with dady and his enduring memories !
