Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
The finish line is visible, in its slight glamour. I feel an inch closer. I feel an ounce stronger.
I move amidst the spread of tulips
with my heart clenched in my fist,
a bit hesitant, a bit hopeful.
While the wind whispers the tales
of chances, of second glances,
I quietly fill a teaspoon with trust.
Sun blushes with scarlet cheeks
and skies are smeared with orange smiles.
My spirits are warm now
and my nerves calm.
A stream of faith flows through me.
I take small steps of courage,
few towards me,
few away from black holes and violet scars.
The finish line is visible,
in its slight glamour.
I feel an inch closer.
I feel an ounce stronger.
My fingers tremble less
as I secretly write, a new goal today.
I am sure to find my bit of faith
in whistling bees and shining starlets,
and in their humble intentions.
I feel a bit less hesitant,
And a bit more hopeful now.

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.
