I : A Multitude...

~~~

I.

A Woman.

A Multitude Of Personalities.

Yet, One Soul.

~~~

A Human Being.

A Daughter.

A Sister.

A Wife,

A Mother.

~~~

Dignified.

Ridiculed.

Worshiped.

Humiliated.

~~~

Yet, she plays her part, with panache.

Unfailingly.

~~~

The fairer sex from Venus, are a divine lot.

They endure through a multitude of troubles, to portray a multitude of characterizations.

All through life.

~~~

Stereotyped by the society.

Yet, achieving breakthroughs, for their own selves.

~~~

Over the years, women in India and around the world have broken a very elementary stereotype.

'Choose between being a home-maker OR being a working woman.'

And, I'm proud to have joined the bandwagon.

For the woman of the present time, it is not an OR.

It is an AND.

There is no choice.

There is an open acknowledgement and fulfillment of responsibilities.

The woman of the present time does not shy away.

She is not the one with a weak spine.

Rather, she forms a strong pillar of support for the ones who count on her.

She embraces what is expected of her, along with the challenges, which accompany those expectations.

~~~

As women, it is not hard for us, to prioritize.

After all, we've mastered the art of multitasking, along with the art of planning, with all our schedules in place.

Home comes before Work, without a doubt.

Agreed.

Often, adjustments have to be made.

That is how the balance of life is maintained.

~~~

But it is surely not a compromise of sorts.

For you have to learn, to settle for nothing less than the best.

That which one can achieve, to the best of her abilities.

~~~

On the other hand...

Relationships weigh heavier than Ego.

That is how it must be.

For ego must not consume the person that one is.

~~~

I am defined by my lilliputian yet gigantic world.

I am defined by the worries that surround me, overpowered by the joys that uplift me.

I am defined by what I portray.

AND...

I portray a multitude.

An ocean of emotions.

A single drop of essence.

~~~

I am a free spirit...

Which cannot be contained by the labels awarded by this materialistic world...
