I am really sorry friends for not writing the blogs. Anyway I am back with a thought which again relates my real life story. Lets get started then.
Yesterday I went to one of my relative's place where she was getting dressed for a party and her daughter was roaming around the place. I was waiting for her in the drawing room where her daughter was playing "Teacher teacher ;-P" ( the one even we used to play as a kid). Her mother started bawling her out for wearing shoes and going to the party and suddenly an interesting conversation started between the mother and daughter. I will skip that one..and come to the point. In between my mother-in-law jumped and asked the little girl what she would become when she will grow up. She asked her "Teacher banogi ?" The girl said yes why not, I already play with my lil brother and I become teacher in that. Her mother made a very interesting comment on her reply which made me write this whole story and blog. It was like this, she says,"Every girl in her childhood wants to become a teacher, then after a certain period she wants to become a doctor, then a model/actress but finally what is her fate? She is asked to make gol gol rotis in her sasural whether she want to do it or not."
After hearing this all my childhood memories started flashing in front of eyes, tears started rolling over my cheeks and it made me ponder, have I accomplished everything I have ever thought of till now. Then I went through my whole achievements list till date and it made me realise that yes I was a teacher before marriage (Tuition teacher though ;-P). I have not done modelling yet but I used to become model for make up practice at vlcc institute while learning the course. I even got a chance to be a contestant in Miss Gujarat Competition 2014 but I missed it due to illness. Finally, I became a nutritionist and married a doctor ;-). I am happy I am working as well as nourishing my family with care. This would not have been possible without my new family's support and on top of all my MIL's* support. Had she not helped me in household chores, I would not have had joined the corporation in first place. I owe her a lot,
*(I have seen many MIL's who have stopped working after they get a bahu. They feel like getting retired from the household work. I must say they should get a kaam wali bai for full day instead getting their sons married. Atleast that bai will get her monthly wages.)
And for all you girls out there reading this blog please revise your dreams and try to accomplish them. Take a stand for yourself and tell your in-laws about your dreams and discuss them and find a way through which you can achieve them. I know this is next to impossible in some cases but Where there's a Will, there's a Way..
I just wanted to make a point that are we really living our life or are we just taking ourselves granted? I had asked myself this question and even I have to accomplish a lot in life for which will power and struggle are the only keys.
Thank you for reading my blog and leave a comment if anywhere I am wrong.
