A heart warming poem from an expecting mother to her unborn girl, " I am terrified of an error, No wiser than the next personm, But the wisest to you.
My dear girl
I am scared
Of you getting a form
Is it right here for you
Will it be wise
To bring innocence
In this jaded world
With children with old eyes
Where you can become
An object of lust
From the day you will be born
Scared
You will grow up too soon
Lose the touch of whimsy too soon
The joy of unfettered play
And believing anything possible
Santa fairies Godmother and flying pumpkins
Become limited by your own thoughts
Watch the child die before
The child has ever the chance to grow
What would I teach you
Which thought
Which ideology
When I am not even sure of it myself
They tell this is the right way and that wrong
I am terrified of an error
No wiser than the next person
But the wisest to you

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
