Don't worry about your flaws and imperfections, says the poet, because these very imperfections make you what you are!
Don’t worry about your flaws and imperfections, says the poet, because these very imperfections make you what you are!
Sticks and stones have broken my bones But words have broken my heart When someone’s told me I’m not pretty It’s torn my world apart
We’ve looked at all those pretty girls On covers of magazines All we’ve said then is I wish I were as pretty, as lean
Am I really beautiful? Often we’ve asked ourselves We’ve let our minds deny it Without listening to what the heart tells
It says that beauty is acceptance Being comfortable in our own skin It isn’t measured by the makeup on our faces But by how radiant our hearts are within
Let people say what they want to We’re way above what they do I’m my own version of pretty You’re the best version of you
So lets join hands and hold our heads high And put on a strong front We’re pretty, we’re beautiful, we’re bold But the best thing is – we’re confident
Lets accept ourselves for what we are Our little flaws and imperfections Because these little things are what make us unique Make us see beauty in our reflections.

She could picture her father standing in the kitchen wearing his white crisp kurta as he made delectable concoctions for his only daughter.
Neena grew up in a home where both her parents worked together in tandem to keep the house up and running. She had a blissful childhood in her modest two-room house. The house was small but every nook and cranny gave her memories of a lifetime. Neena’s young heart imagined that her life would follow the same cheerful course. But how wrong she was!
When she was sixteen, the catastrophic clutches of destiny snatched away her parents. They passed away in a road accident and Neena was devastated. Relatives thronged her now gloomy house and soon it was decided that she should be married off.
Menopause is a reality in women's lives, so Indian workplaces need to gear up and address women's menopausal needs.
Picture this: A seasoned executive at the peak of her career suddenly grapples with hot flashes and sleep disturbances during important meetings. She also battles mood swings and cognitive changes, affecting her productivity and confidence. Eventually, she resigns from her job.
Fiction? Not really. The scenario above is a reality many women face as they navigate menopause while meeting their work responsibilities.
Menopause is the time when a woman stops menstruating. This natural condition marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. The transition brings unique physical, emotional, and psychological changes for women.
