She is a mother, but she needs to be mothered too....It's hard to always be the rock, when you need support too~
That woman you see holding that baby effortlessly? She’s not sure if she’s doing motherhood correctly.
That woman you see looking so flawlessly composed. Has cried tears of tiredness inside locked bathroom doors.
That woman you see playing with her child, Is a child at heart herself pretending to be an adult all the while.
That smiling woman you see encouraging her crying child to go to school. Has a heart breaking with her child’s tears and has her heart full.
That woman you see planning her child’s far future, Secretly wishes she could turn back time, And hold her baby in her arms forever.
That woman you see slaying the motherhood game, Comes alive when her child lovingly brushes her mane. Because she is a mother, but she needs to be mothered too. It’s hard to always be the rock, when you need support too.
That woman you see being always so strong Quietly wishes she did not have to be so all along!

As parents, we put a piece of our hearts out into this world and into the custody of the teachers at school and tuition and can only hope and pray that they treat them well.

When I was in Grade 10, I flunked my first preliminary examination in Mathematics. My mother was in a panic. An aunt recommended the Maths classes conducted by the Maths sir she knew personally. It was a much sought-after class, one of those classes that you signed up for when you were in the ninth grade itself back then, all those decades ago. My aunt kindly requested him to take me on in the middle of the term, despite my marks in the subject, and he did so as a favour.
Math had always been a nightmare. In retrospect, I wonder why I was always so terrified of math. I’ve concluded it is because I am a head in the cloud person and the rigor of the step by step process in math made me lose track of what needed to be done before I was halfway through. In today’s world, I would have most probably been diagnosed as attention deficit. Back then we had no such definitions, no such categorisations. Back then we were just bright sparks or dim.
Pathaan touted as SRK’s comeback has been in the news for mixed reasons. Right from the hype around SRK’s comeback and special mentions his body contours; yet I can't watch it!

For me, it’s not about Deepika’s bikini colour or was-it-needed skin show. It’s about meaningful content that I find is missing big time. Not just this movie, but a spate of cringe-worthy narratives passed off as ‘movies’ in the recent past. I feel insulted, and not because I am a devoutly religious person or a hardcore feminist, but because I feel the content insults my intelligence.
But before everything else, I am a 90s kid who in the case of movies (and maybe more) is stuck in time as it wrapped around me then and the gamut has too hard an exterior for me to crack it open!
