REVELATION

Gone are those days when women used to be the epitome of patience,sacrifices.....Now you've the modern woman, the 21st century woman excelling in all walks of life.But the question is how many of us can really call ourselves the women of today??
As for me it is sad but quite a revelation that years have gone by and when i look back wonder,"what have i achieved?"Definitely a great family but is that all to life?Are we satisified with that alone? Each one of us want to do something in life that we enjoy,rt? How many of us have been able to?Happiness is a relative term.And literally(on a lighter note) it sure does depend at times on your relatives.
One morning woke up realising that i'm capable and going to to make a difference in my life.If i don't help myself no one else will and dare to.It is all about doing what you like and enjoying what you do. Growing up years you are busy pleasing your elders and from there starts the art of pleasing.With some of us it goes to such an extent that you are constantly trying to please the whole world. Is it possible to survive pleasing everyone?And if everyone is happy with us then it surely indicates that we have made a lot of compromises in our life.Do you think it is required?Inspite of all this there is a question which arises time and again "why do we end up hurting the people we love? Take for granted near and dear ones?"
You always have people pointing out what is right and wrong. But who has set the parameters as to what is right and wrong? Knowingly or unknowingly you end up losing confidence.
Are any of us perfect so as to point a finger at others?Why are the decisions taken doubted?
Living a life of satisfaction doesn't mean lots of money, power, equality... or carving a niche in society but it is all about doing what you enjoy without hurting others.
At some point in your life these thoughts and doubts will arise and once you find an answer just pull up your socks and go for it. Don't give yourself another chance to wake up and regret and wish you could undo all what has happened!!
These are just thoughts of mine am voicing.....if even one person gets thinking nothing like it.

  1. A strongly written and well said article...

    Sometimes we tend to stay in an oblivion where the subconcious feels and the concious tries to stay away from everything that is reality... pleasing everyone else is also the truth... but you the inner you that gets killed at all these moments that pile up ...

    Next...one thing i realised what you say is so true.. you cannot please everybody and every one... sometimes you know like it is we cannot displease anyone.. and it is just not there in our blood.. we hate to be a reason for anyone's grief and in the bargain we sacrifice a lot... at times the world sees this and starts to take advantage of it... and we suffer...
