While juggling multiple roles, don’t forget you are important too. Make yourself a priority because no one else will with #KhayaalRakhna
My mom withdrew into herself on ‘those days of the month’, but I need to be a different kind of mom, so that my kids understand why, and not feel ignored and confused.
I did not like when she ignored me When she did not talk to me When she left me on my own To succumb to confusions.
What could be the reason I struggled to figure out But always failed Succumbing to silence.
Minutes of silence stretched to hours Hours to days and days to a week And then all came back to normalcy I succumbed to the situation.
My best friend, my role model My confidant and my support All dissolving into thin air I succumbed to defeat, unaware.
Now, years later, I am a mother to teenagers I now understand the reason Why my mom chose to be silent She was living her life with her ups and downs.
Having experienced the consequences I cannot see my kids withering To whatever I am facing in my life Be it my hormonal imbalances or health issues.
I choose to make it clear, my reasons for silence I take my time out to reconcile For, I want to leave a beautiful image etched In the hearts of my kids to remember, long after I am gone.
A mother, a wife and a woman defines me. I became a homemaker by choice
