Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
One life, live it! It is special...feel it!
In this world we come, to see our parents’ twinkling eyes;
They hold us tight and love us right, to make us all well and wise.
The first crawl, the first stand, the first run and the first fall;
Our sweet smile, our loud cries, makes everything around us stall.
The excitement of running to school for the first time;
The fun of having best friends to fight and play all the time.
The first crush, the first love and the first rose for the special one;
The first no, the first heart break and then the repeated sessions of sad songs.
The hard work in school and then in college, to excel in life’s unseen battle;
The pride to have the first offer, “Mom-Dad, I’ve done it.” Waving it like a rattle.
The first day at work, and the huge shopping before that;
The first salary, the first award at work and the first appraisal.
Yet another time the heart falling for one and this time I know it’s a budding love;
Hand in hand, theatres, movies, eateries and gardens- like the lovely two little doves.
The most important day to celebrate, the day when the two souls met to be one;
Begins the journey of life with flavours of love, responsibility, and a lot of fun.
The late hours slogging, the overflowing work, no time for party, no time for fun;
One day to realize, it’s time for the little one to come, the heart wonders if its a daughter or a son?
Tired and exhausted with work, life’s trigger lies only in the little one’s smile;
Struggle is on, to make the future bright for the little one to shine.
One day to see the little one is a self-made and successful soul;
Having a new found world with dreams and sensibly defined goals.
Eyes filled with pride and heart in peace, I declare that’s my beautiful life’s fruit;
Taking with it, my values and ethics to live and play life’s beautiful flute.
Content with life’s offerings, holding hands and finding solace in each other’s lap;
We close our eyes to embrace the other world and take a long, rather longest nap.
That’s the cycle of life, the beautiful life, the gift from the Goddess herself;
Live it, Love it, Laugh it, Play it, Sing it, Dance it…… Coz you are priceless yourself.

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.
