Words help unravel complicated selves that, we didn't know existed within ourselves.

A poet gave me his words today – I took it from him, in fact. They now snuggle around my neck, They run their fingers across my pieces cracked.
My tongue now rolls around his words, His words now roll around my tongue. I hold them gently between my lips, And breathe; to calm my mind unstrung.
He didn’t guilt me into agreeing with him , He didn’t tie a leash to my thoughts. Instead, a new perspective he has revealed, A new light he has brought.
His voice now whispers in my ear, When I let it, the chaos I call my life, it tames. A poet gave me his words today, And I am no longer the same.

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.
