Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
My dear husband, I am already doing things I thought I could not do, I am bringing up two very fine, wonderful boys, who would contribute towards a better world.
It was a very hectic day yesterday.
We were watching the 10 pm news on TV, which is a part of our daily routine and I really don’t know why but a sigh escaped my lips. My husband who was watching me looked at me with a face full of guilt.
He said, “I know you are tired, you don’t get time for yourself. I have always told you, it’s not about career or money but you should do something for yourself. Find a passion.”
He continued, “Don’t worry, everything will fall in place, you must do the things you think you cannot do”.
I said, “Thank you so much, so here is the list of things, I think I cannot do”.
I wanted to continue, but I looked at his face and I laughed out loud. Poor man, he did not know what was coming.
I told him, that I am happy the way I am. I am passionate about being a mother. Motherhood is all about learning about all the strengths you never knew you had. It is all about conquering your fears. I love staying at home and looking after the kids.
I said, “My dear husband, I am already doing things I thought I could not do, I am bringing up two very fine, wonderful boys, who would contribute towards a better world.”
He held my hand and smiled.

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.
