The celebration time is on...and we are enjoying to the hilt!!! and of course all of a sudden, we become satyawatis, kalawatis and pati pujarans...hail our embedded patriarchal thoughts. Modern Indian woman is definitely not truly 'modern' after all...thanks to Ekta Kapoor's idiosyncrasies that reflects in her 'traditional' serials, where on one hand the man has relationships with umpteen number of women and the wife is fasting- 'karva chauth' and praying for his long life even after bearing the misbehaviour of the pati devta, sasuma and others!!!!
The worst of all, all women sit in front of the idiot box and greatly enjoy these atavistic serials that does nothing but give new ideas to suppress women...how lovely!!!
Isn't it time for the guys to do something? Hello...we bear the pregnancy, bring them up and manage the family logistics...isn't it time for them to fast for us?? after all, they can't afford to let us go to the heavens earlier...god save their lives!!!
Have we really understood the meaning of 'modernism' and 'equality'? Now I know a lot of you are going to say, 'its faith, what's your problem?' I know its your life and you can do whatever you want...but don't show off na...its become a fashion to demand or discretely expect expensive gifts from your darling hubbies!!!then why mix 'materialism' and 'faith'???
I don't understand our system at times..isn't love, all pure that breaks boundaries of creed, caste and religion??? Pray from the heart for love, not for diamonds...

First of all asking wife to sit at home is the most stupid think anyone should do! I would never alway my wife to sit at home! You earn your money! Plus Empty mind is devils workshop! (I am not saying that their mind is full before that.)
Nice blog btw.
twinkling diamonds are not just for me but also for me to flaunt. when I sit amongst my friends and they ask me what gift did your hubby give you, I have to flaunt na.... Great piece Tushi. Hazel dream I think you have rightly said Plath is in all of us specially all those who like to express their thoughts penning them down. Did Plath not write - Into the blue. Tops define themselves as places
Where nothing higher's to be looked to. Downward looks ....
To us, since we see no leaf edge stir high
Here on a mount overlaid with leave
And Tushita I guess has brought this sentiment out. We are all riding on arrow - backs, aren't we. DEEP
