A Warm Welcome


Welcome!! Okay that sounded pretty lame. Hmm…so how about…Heeeyyy, another blog! No not that either.

Have you been afraid of something in your life and wanted to face the fear head on? You keep going there and coming back and then again, you go there and take a step back. Yeah, that is how I have been feeling for the last few days…oh  well!! Months actually!

Frankly social media frightens the crap out of me. I wonder about the people reading the blog and then hesitate to take that step. But finally here I am. I am facing my fear head on.

So enough about my ranting!Let’s just get started.

This blog is about everything women. Oh God, you say, not another one! Yes, this is about how it feels to be a woman. Your story out there. I would like to invite each and every one of you to share your experiences and thoughts of being a woman in today’s world. Mostly it will be about the problems we are facing today, contemporary issues that affect us and how we have managed to overcome the same.

It could be an experience about parenting or career. It could be about feminism as you see it. It could even be about being a non-feminist. Men are welcome too, as long as you are not a misogynist. I would like your comments and reviews on all articles posted out there


So come aboard! Let me know your views. So till we meet again! Keep smiling!!

Keep Wasting and Stay Hungry

16 th October is celebrated the world over as World Food Day. Bet you didn’t know that. Well, I didn’t. What pops into our minds when we think of this day? World hunger? Shortage of food? Wastage of food? Yes, all of it.  Let us concentrate on wastage here, though. After all each one of us is contributing to it on a personal level. It is estimated that the amount of food wasted on a daily basis, around the world is enough to feed up to 3 billion people. In India alone around 40 to 45% of the food produced is wasted, i.e a whopping 58,000 crores, according to the Food and Agricultural Ministry. Of course this is because of various factors like an increase in population, lack of proper facilities to store food, climate changes, hoarding, inflation, etc. But we also waste food on a personal level too. We, Indians tend to live large; sometimes larger than what our wallet allows for various social reasons. Huge weddings and lavish parties are a norm. Have you ever wondered what happe...

An Unhealthy Paradox

The human race is strange to say the least (I could say despicable but let’s go with strange). We see ourselves as martyr’s when life pulls us down. We believe ourselves chosen if we suffer. We let our beliefs in a greater power guide us straight to religions that haven’t made sense since it was propagated by self-promoting people, who dictated what we should or shouldn’t do. We think near death experiences can make us achieve some sort of ‘nirvana’ and we go around preaching to others how we re-discovered our life after the experience. We spew philosophical nonsenses that really help no one. Poverty is glorified by self-serving politicians so that they can bank on you voting for them, by doling out a few incentives. People in the corridors of power have spent years, plotting and planning strategies to keep most of the world hungry, sick and in need so that they could make a killing on it. We pay them to keep us miserable. We have the powerful few who control governments world ov...

From One Woman to Another

A Woman's World First of all, an apology for being AWOL, for so long. It has been long since I posted anything and my excuse, trying to finish my next book. That said, let's get back to writing this blog. So we are going to celebrate another Women's Day. So a Happy Women's day to all! This post is not about feminism. No, not even if it is women day. This is about us. A one on one relationship with each other. Let me be more honest. It is an issue I have been pondering and wondering for a long time (yes musing). Most times, we are fighting the world at large. the big bad men who have subjugated us for so long. The #MeToo, #TimesUp, for instance. The demand for equal pay. We can demand differently and be heard. We need each other for that. We have a long way to go, still and will need the support of other women. Is it not? Me thinks so! But! yes, but. The question is do we walk the talk? A study by the University of Arizona, found that women are more likel...
