To all the women out there, Happy International Women’s day!!!
What’s the agenda for today? A break from your household duties? A holiday at work? A special dinner at your favorite restaurant? Or is it just another normal day?
For the past one week I have been tearing my hair to come up with an article on ‘International Women’s Day’ for my mother-in-law to publish in her club’s magazine.
Don’t take the ‘tearing my hair’ literally. I cannot afford to, because this CA is a Hair-eating Monster! (Kindly excuse me for a small diversion from the topic..) My joblessness has led me to do a research that shows that more than 80% in the CA field are victims to rapid hair-fall. Who cares to disagree with me??? If you do, please go check in the mirror. You’ll definitely have a few noticeable greys! π
So yeah, back to my topic. The only thing that’s working on the article like a maniac is the Backspace button on my keyboard. The problem with me, which all you readers would have observed, is that I can’t write serious stuff. I just cannot. My brain isn’t wired that way. I’m not the inspirational speech type! My posts cater to all the bored souls who could do with some laughs. Even if it means laughing at me, I’m happy! I want to put some smiles on faces out there!
Dear women… Don’t get so serious with life!! We live once, and in this one life we play numerous roles. We experience a gamut of emotions every moment, most of which men know NOT of! Lucky them, if you ask me! More emotions equal to more complications. To be truthful, men are not all that lucky after all. Ask my husband, for instance! He probably makes an excel sheet of my various moods and how to respond to each of them. He still often finds himself in a soup!
Of course it’s okay to use the men as punching bags, occasionally, but for other times there are so many other ways to flush out the frustration! Us ladies, we can be trusted to find new ways!
Take some time out for you. That’s the only way you can stay sane in an otherwise hectic, crazy, frustrating routine life! Do what you like even if it’s silly!! Who cares!!
Let me list out a few FUN things that we can do!
1) Sing in the shower! Entertain your neighbors! They can’t throw stones at you, not when you’re in there!
2) Plug in your music, put on your shoes and go for a walk! The dishes can wait to be washed! Diapers can wait to be changed! No, that was a JOKE!
3) Dance to your favorite song! If you’re like me, who hates to dance in front of an audience, push them out of the room. Out of the house is too far fetched!
4) Go ahead, order something that’s oozing with cheese or grab those chocolate bars! Or both! If you don’t like what the weighing scale shows you, don’t look at it. Ignorance is bliss!
5) Read that romantic novel again! The one that makes you blush and go weak in the knees! No I’m not recommending Mills & Boon. I’m no fan of them! Needn’t be romance! If it’s murder that gives you the kick then so be it!
6) Go to the mall, shop till you drop! You don’t need anything at the moment? Shop for your loved ones! Gifting is as much fun as receiving them!
P.S. I’m your loved one too!
7) Grab the TV remote from whoever it is and watch what you like, for a change. If a fight ensues, fight back.
8) If you have a daughter like me, go far away for a day! Don’t answer her calls, block her on whatsapp. You need peace, get it. Push your worries for later.
Ok, that was MY list. Make your own list and ACT upon it!
Believe in yourself. Love who you are and what you do, even if it’s being a house wife. That’s no small deal. Every role comes with its own set of responsibilities. We can achieve whatever we want if we set our heart on it.
I know, all of this that I’m preaching I ought to practice too! Oh that’s one more thing we women are good at! Preaching!
Cheers and love to all the women out there!
Last but not the least, it will not be fair if I don’t mention a special thanks to all the men in our lives who support us, love us the way we are and make us feel good about ourselves!

Nice!
