Expected to be an expert….
An expert professional…meeting targets, deadlines….regardless of her emotional upheavals or severe pain and weakness when menstruating….for she wishes to be an equal….
An expert daughter….obeying her parents’ decision and walking away from the love of her life….for she wants peace….despite been torn apart, shattered from within….
An expert mother, wife and daughter-in-law….returning tired from work and instantly plunging into all household chores….for she wishes to fulfil her responsibilities….for she loves her family….
Behold!…The lady scurrying past the street…a WORKING WOMAN… is in a rush to reach her workplace…after having managed all her responsibilities at home….The other one ..THE HOMEMAKER gets up before everyone sacrificing the extra sleep her body pleaded….carrying on with all her work…with a gentle smile on her face….
Her soul! It houses a speck of fear…fear of being judged…fear of being unloved…fear of being left alone…for she binds all her bonds with thread of love…sombre, selfless love…
The woman sitting at that window…a working woman on her maternity leave…anxious..about the well-being on child within…wondering when would she be able to resume work again…
The woman running with her toddler is somewhat tired…for she has so many things to look after…for her love…
The unmarried one, getting judged, misinterpreted each day…
The one enjoying her new love…may get the love she deserves ..or may end up being manipulated, dumped and shattered in love….
That lady rushing back home late night saving herself from those devouring eyes in the dark alley…is on a journey…to save herself…
Each one is going through a lot…
Did anyone peep into her heart?
SHE too has a heart…SHE too feels tired…The pain SHE bears while delivering her child…The pain SHE feels when they taunt her for not being able to bear a child…HER self-respect, self-love do wail at times…She never expresses freely…
What does SHE need?
Well….just some appreciation, acceptance, respect and love….
