They Discriminate.


A part of this is inspired by 'A Thousand Splendid Suns' by Khaled Hosseini.

He sat on his couch, sipping his coffee, his gaze fixed on the screen.
She had to sweep the floor in that arctic biting cold and prepare him one more cappuccino thereafter.
Why? She wasn't a Man.

She went out with him and stood behind as he shook hands with men and hugged their wives.
Through that mesh screen of her burqa, she could smell smoke coming out of the cigarettes, the women with long, black painted nails, held.
She could not even dare to think of imitating them.
Why? She wasn't a Man.

He forced himself upon her to pleasure himself.
She resisted but to no avail. Helpless, she went for justice just to discover_Rape is the only crime where the victim becomes the accused. She faced rejection by her society.
Why? She wasn't a Man.

He bunked his school everyday and gradually became a chain smoker.
She was told to discontinue her education and do the household chores because the family could not afford the fees of two.
Why? She wasn't a Man.

Modernity is in our Mentality.
Why do men roam around with bare chests and girls get unpleasant stares if they wear skirts? We have a far more sensitive skin!
Why can't dowry be sent from the bridegrooms house? You are being given the daughter of the house. Don't be so selfish!
Why do elderly women taunt girls for applying kajal and coloring their nails? These products weren't made for men or because they are too old to be an eye-catcher even after using this stuff!
Why do they distribute sweets when they are gifted with a boy and nothing when it is a girl? I guess they saved some extra bucks, as the boy's delivery took place in a cheap nursing home. Thus, this celebration!

Men should learn to respect women. Not only the mothers are to be blamed for not teaching their sons. Also, Blame those fathers for not allowing their wives to do so. Blame them for assaulting and beating their wives in front of their sons. Blame them for being heavily drunk and returning home late night. If the wives tend to take an action, they are re-assaulted by their man and his brothers! Some suffer acid-attacks. What a Shame! By this they prove they are cowards!
Only a few women succeed_those who get support from their own family.
But those who teach their daughters that they are meant to endure all this...Oh man! How would they feel if they're chopped into pieces and fed to hungry lions? SHITTTTT.
Men can upload pics flaunting their built body but if a women's legs are shown, they call her indecent. Hell with this mentality. These men are the ones who keep half nude pictures of women hidden in their mobile phones and fantasize. I pity them. They boast their hard work they did during gym and call women sluts for wearing skin fit. Oh! So note that they are going to marry fat ladies who'd chew paan! And, yes, have never visited any parlor!

RISE. WAKE UP.
We are not meant to lower our standards to adjust in this society. Let men follow us!
We aren't supposed to stand in the snowfall and shiver. We have that potential to make better and bigger roof above our heads. God chose to make us beautiful. Now let men, let that world envy the beauty of our mind-set!
When we'd be United, Fearlessness would prevail.
If not today, they'd surrender tomorrow.

It is never too late to learn but don't make it late to Rise!

Thank you Papa

When I quit being a Lawyer, it was an obvious assumption that my parents would never support this decision. These hard-working, middle-class parents took a loan and spent lakhs on my college education, and I decided to play and teach Guitar instead?! To be honest, I didn't hold on to any hope or support. It was a heavy risk, one where I just went with the flow of doing what I loved, while feeling incredibly guilty.  . Living independently in Delhi was a crucial and a necessary decision. More than my family, I wanted to prove it to myself that I can make a living out of just music.  'Making it' holds a different definition for everyone. For me, it was always about spreading the joy of music -  be it by performing or teaching or social media. The platform didn't matter as far as the message was passed across. . I look back and I wonder, was I really that alone in the journey? There were several things that I was never permitted since I was brought up in a small town, bu

 I miss my Daada, my grandfather, I miss him so much. It's been more than 12 years since he passed away but I can still feel his presence. I was in school back then and I didn't realize how huge that loss was. He used to pick me up after school. He had retired but used to go to office at times and came to pick me up in his car during his lunch time. I used to ask him for 10 Rupees to buy a packet of Chips. He happily gave it to me and I munched it on our way back. I always used to offer him one piece of chip and ate 2 myself, and we used to have a lovely journey back home.  I wish I could talk to him, I do feel his presence but I would really like to talk to him. I long to hear his voice.  One time, back when there were nokia phones, the button to cancel the call was broken on his phone. He had accidentally dialed someone and I was laughing so hard when he couldn't cut the call. He let me have a hearty laugh and didn't scold me about it.  He used to wake me up in the mo

Her cure.

       I was overwhelmed. I exited the college gate, all gay, adoring my name on the certificate. I had won the 2nd prize for western vocals, inter college. It was my best so far. While walking my way towards the metro, I called my mom and she was all happy and proud. My dad, from behind her, shouted, "I smell a new Fender in the house!" The thought of a new guitar forced a shriek out of me. I dug deep into the imagination of how it would be like when I'd finally learn to play. I was walking and swinging my way... into my bubble, unaware of the atrocities of life, sinking deeper into my emotions, giving in to materialism and dependency, blinded by desires, to what lies beyond.            I was climbing down the steps to the subway when I first saw her. She was sitting on the fourth last step. It was her bagpack that caught my attention at first. It had multiple psychedelic patterns that looked hand-drawn. Since I was all happy and .. I let the excessive dopamine ta
