Year 2020...deplorable yet second bite of the cherry!


 

The 21st year of 21st century 2021 will come tomorrow! It is not coming alone but bringing along the new horizons in everyone's eyes! This new year is special because it's apparent that the topmost thing in everyone's new year wish list is only the COVID-19 vaccine. This COVID vaccine or its cure is something where the desire of a rich man meets with the poor. Yes, LIFE and DEATH is one thing which is the same to all and beautifully hides all the differences of mankind.

The year 2020 now fading slowly and becoming invisible in the darkness of this night but it is stealing away the smiles of children, the dreams in the eyes, the sacrifices of many, the dear ones in families, the hopes of many people, the desires of teenagers, the love of elders and much more. This year brought us the deadly virus and loss of many life, loss in business, joblessness, confinement, and mental stress. But they say, not only this, it has given us a year to learn how to struggle, how important is cleanliness and maintaining hygiene, how to be alert and prepared for any unforeseen situation, how to explore new opportunities, embracing technologies helped many to survive, how to help each other, loving the nature again, the value of food & water, importance of all kind of work and people doing it, saving and avoiding unwanted expenses, how to live with only necessities, grand arrangements at marriage is just a waste of money, wearing makeup is just masking your natural beauty, how important is family and how much we need each others time, how we can help our self and unite to do all work at home together, how much children as well elders are important for a happy family. It has also helped to end the myths in many minds that only the door to God's temple is the place to worship but open the door of your hearts to connect to the power above. It has given us that special time we may have not got until now to spend with near ones so far in this human rat race, the patience to bear everything and anything, to not only love yourself but everyone around you, and above all the importance of LIFE!!!

The expert or a common man can have thousands of words to debate on this but no one can get a chance again to sail through the storms of this year. Wrapped in its memories some say goodbye to it with a heavy heart as for them it has just brought a year full of struggle and tears, the separation of loved ones but for some, a year which has taught the lessons of life and they managed to move ahead. We hope the new year comes with colors to fill in everyone's life but the year 2020 will be the one to be in memories for ages and will have many stories untold!

Goodbye year 2020!

Are we gender biased when we always expect male member or fathers to be the first in the 'responsibility list'?

The word 'man' or 'father' sounds so heavy that it automatically builds up  an image of a person who should be the most responsible member of the family especially living in the patriarchal society of our country.   Do they have a choice? No, a man doesn't have choices. In most of the families around, a woman may choose not to work or be bound to do so but a man has to go out to arrange for the daily bread and butter. Whatever position they may be holding in their job, from a clerk to a CEO, they learn to lead, manage and create a balance! They make sure that not only the needs but the wishes of the family members are fulfilled at every point in time. T o bring smiles to your faces, they buy the best for you and cut short their desires. No, money is not the reason for cutting but it's their concern to give it away first to you. They think about fulfilling your wish list first and keep their own at the end. They are ok to wear that same shirt again to...

Happy Father's Day!

  Father....the quiet strength when the world feels too loud, the tired eyes that still smile when you walk into the room, the hands that built dreams while silently hiding their own. His love; he may not show but it's in the way he holds back his tears so you can be strong. It’s in the long hours, the missed meals, the quiet sacrifices you never saw ; because he never wanted you to! You may think he is emotionally strong but he feels everything.... Your pain becomes his burden. Your joy becomes his purpose. And even when he’s tired, broken, or afraid, he still stands tall for you! Hold him tighter...because a father never truly leaves rather he lives on… in your courage, in your kindness, in every quiet moment where love speaks louder than words. On this Father’s Day, let’s celebrate the man who stood tall so we could lean... The one who gave us roots to stay grounded and wings to fly.. To Dad...thank you for being our first hero, our forever guide, and the heart that never stops ...
