Women's Dual Role - Working and Homemaker !!
This summary is not available. Please
click here to view the post.
Balance your life !!
As life partner Husband and Wife should shoulder each other’s responsibilities. Equal partnership fosters closeness between husband and wife .There was a time where husband was primary wage-earner in a family and wife was merely the Homemaker. They were brought up this way by their family right from the time they were small.
As time passed, many hurdles came up in the way of earning such as increase in cost of living due to increase in population, Invention of machines replacing man power and many more. When things started appearing really difficult, the women in the house stepped up to share the load and started making a living by making money in their possible ways and thereby started becoming a secondary income earner.
Now although the women started sharing the family responsibilities by earning and contributing as a secondary income earner,she always continued the primary role of being the Homemaker. She performed tow roles and hence slowly the balance of life began to disturb. She worked for same time as Husband by being the secondary income earner and also she did chores of homemaker like cooking, cleaning and laundry work. As per a survey conducted, 85% of working Indian women feel they have two jobs, one at work and another at home.
Now while the women started contributing by being the secondary income earner, the role of the husband to contribute in household chores did not happen. Not only then but sadly this is the scenario even in today's times. 76% Men thing that laundry is women’s job and even if they help it seems as favour not responsibility.
It is sad to see such inequalities still continue to exist. 2/3rd's of Indian women feel, there exists inequality at home, between men and women. 73% of married Indian women feel, a man prioritizes relaxing over helping with household chores. These are mainly due to issues in mindset and mostly related to their upbringing by society.
1. While raising boys itself, they must be educated in doing household chores and not just on getting a job.
2. Men feel it embarrassing and feel their male ego hurt by doing Women’s job like laundry, cooking. But if women can go ahead and generate income, men should also change their attitude and begin to contribute in household chores and not go by society.
3. Women should encourage men who try to help them in household work and not find any fault in their work. They should take it as a blessing and it would be helpful in the long run if all men share load with their wives.

Dream Big !!
In most cases, a woman's life is always dictated and decided by everyone except her. She is always taught to think and do for others first before thinking about herself. But if there is someone who still wants to think about her or work for her dreams, then she has to fight for it.
That is the story about my mother. Bringing up me and my two sisters along with a full time job and commuting by public transport for 2 hours to work daily was not a cakewalk. But she handled it with so much grace and happiness. She never spoke to us about her tiredness or her pain. But was always worried if we were good. She would never eat food right but would always be concerned if we ate good.
That is because she took charge of life and made a choice, not a compromise. She always wanted to be independent and follow her dreams. At times when most ladies would sit at home to raise their kid, she would go for work. She got to hear of taunts for this and sometimes had to fight for her dreams too but she never quit. She continued to be independent in their thoughts and serious of her career. That is how she raised us as well. Even though we do not have a brother, we were given equal freedom like boys. Never
once did she made us realize that we were girls and had restrictions.
Today I take this opportunity to talk about her because I see many women easily quitting on their career because of their family. So many of my friends even with masters and doctorate degree in education quit their career to look after their baby. Although your kids need your attention but you don't have to give up on your dreams to prove your love.
You can still work and follow your dreams and still love them unconditionally. By doing so you will only teach your kid the same. We need to leave the OR's and be the AND, take a decision and teach our kids so that they can do the same.
Today I am an engineer AND I love to be FIT and take care of my health AND I love learning new technologies AND work full time AND manage my own family. I always try to give my 100% in what i am doing and be sincere in my work AND disciplined with my health AND eager to learn new things AND an awesome wife to my husband.
Follow your dreams and never quit on them and I am sure your family will be happy. They will love you AND feel proud of you. #UseYourAnd and throw the ORs, for you deserve more and more of things you put your heart into.

Without Passion, life is nothing !!
"Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and, above all, don't let anyone limit your dreams"
I have heard about this quote. But never seen anyone taking it so seriously like my Aunt. She always had a dream to be independent. Bringing up my 2 cousins along with a full time work as a teacher was not an easy task to cope. Yet she performed that task with full enthusiasm.
She loved her work as a teacher. Needless to say, she was the most favorite teacher among her students. She always thought about needs of her students and children before her needs. She would work very hard with the students and also manage her home and kids.
As if this was less, this also had a passion for cooking. She was a fantastic cook. We remember her saying she wanted to be a cook and start her own catering business. But she was not allowed to do so by her parents. So undertook catering orders from people on weekends and after school hours and would cook for them. She did this with so much passion that even though it was after a tiring day at school, she did not show the pain. Even after a busy day, she would have so much energy to play with her kids, to run around, chase them and most importantly the patience to do it.
One thing i learnt from her is what it takes to be passionate and follow your dreams. It was not easy for her at her times to be a Wife + Mom + teacher + Cooking business. She was just unstoppable. I mean look at the multitude of roles she plays. But she fought for her dreams and worked hard to achieve them.
We are really proud to have an aunt like her. Her basic motto was to just dream big and chase them with all your heart. #UseYourAnd and keep compounding your dreams to achieve more and better things that you deserve !

A Foe Turned Friend
"Ellora keep quiet. I will tell your name to teacher", Soum said. This would be a regular thing happening in school whenever our teacher would ask class monitor Soum to make sure no one is talking. Soum was my overweight, strict and studious classmate who would abide by our teacher's words very seriously. Ellora on the other hand was my best friend who was a totally jolly person. She could keep talking without stopping and so would get caught everytime the teacher asked Soum to monitor the class. For that she would be given some punishment or scolding by our teacher. Due to this Ellora hated Soum so much and considered him her biggest enemy.
2 Years later, we three of us again happened to be in the same college along with few others. We had our own group of friends ad we never included Soum. Time few by and we all went to different colleges for engineering. We were in regular contact through social media and we made sure to meet occasionally. Overtime, we lost contact of few of our friends and obviously with Soum too.
One fine day in month of Oct, we got a news that we would be having our school reunion in Dec. We got excited since it was more than 5 years that we had met our classmates.
Finally, the D-Day came. It was surprising to see our classmates as they came. We were very eager to meet our classmates with whom we had lost contact. One by one as they came in the entire atmosphere turned into a rocking place. Then came Soum. He had actually changed so much. He had lost weight, built on some muscles and looked good too. He came to us and spoke and this was i guess after a long time that we actually spoke to him. He turned out to be jovial person. Finally, we ended exchanging our contact details and started being in regular contact.
As time flew by, we got into our first jobs. Surprisingly Ellora and Soum got placed in the same company Wipro at same location Hyderabad. As this was a new city and they knew no one there, they both got along really well together. One fine day, i get the surprise of my life when Ellora calls me to tell that she and Soum are in a relationship. I could not believe this and totally surprised. Eventually they got married and two years later were blessed with a daughter Jia.
Yesterday was Jia's first birthday party. We all met after long and had a good time together.I still cannot believe that two people who were once implacable foes in school, have become good friends later and are now a couple !!

Never Give Up !!!
"I am going to Los Angeles. I cannot believe this", my friend Archana called me at 8am in the morning to say this. "Are you dreaming?", I asked back. "No babes. I just checked the email from my manager and he wants me to travel in January. I am so happy since then that i am just calling everyone to say this".
I could feel the excitement in her voice. She had always wanted to go to US. It was like her childhood dream. She worked really hard to make her dream come true. I know Archana since college days. Once she had set a goal, she would do everything to get it done. But going to US was something which was not in her control. She came from a middle class home where her parents worked hard to meet ends. I still remember the day Archana would wear same jeans for college the entire week as her family could not afford expensive dresses. I think it was after a really long time that we had seen her get another new jeans. Today she along with her 2 sisters got good education and are earning independently.
I remember the days in college when she would tell me that her cousins went to US for further studies. But she could not do that as her family could not afford to send her to US for her further studies. It was always in her mind to go to US. Once into work, she still had her goal in mind and worked day and night at her job so that at-least this way she could fulfill her dream of going to the US. Finally that day her hard work was recognized and her travel was approved for 1 year.
I was so happy for her. I went to meet her that day and tears came in my eyes as I saw my friend. She was a real epitome of determination and commitment. Never give up on your dreams is something i learnt from her that day. Here is wishing you all the best sweetie as you start a new journey in life ahead !!

New Year - New beginning !!
You have the ability to transform your life--- the only thing standing in the way of YOU and your dreams is YOU! Every single day you have a chance to redesign your destiny! It takes discipline, but it pays dividends!
When you stop placing your HAPPINESS in the hands of:
- a scale
- a person's reaction
- facebook
- a business (and what it was doing or not doing)
- a mirror
- a man
- a woman
- someone's approval
- my home
- a bank account balance
- the traffic
- even if I got a good parking spot
And took complete ownership of my feelings, my gratitude, and my path... THAT is when it starts as a new beginning and turns dreams to reality.
Friends, 2015 has the ability to be EVERYTHING YOU WANT IT TO BE.
But it'll only be that way if you're intentional and focused.
If you focus on progress, not perfection.
If you focus on blessing, not problems.
If you focus on ownership, not blame.
If you take responsibility, not live as a victim.
You need to get uncomfortable!
The end of ONE thing is ALWAYS an opportunity to begin ANOTHER adventure!
As you go into 2015 --- Think about a stress in YOUR life and challenge yourself to OVERCOME by way of learning more & doing something about it! AVOIDING your stress only make them seem EVER BIGGER and more scary than they actually are! Once you FACE THEM head on the POWER will be in YOUR court!
BRING ON THE NEW BEGINNINGS BABY!!!
If I could sum up 2014 in 3 words , it would be: CHALLENGING - TRANSITIONAL - BLESSED!
Cheers to the endless possibilities of 2015 and the accomplishments, the obstacles overcame and the days lived!!!!
Wishing everyone a rocking 2015 !!!

Everything happens for a reason !!
"There is a new project requirement which requires you to travel for 6 months to Singapore. We are yet to receive the final dates for your travel and will update you soon." informed our project manager in one of our meetings to Vishu. We all knew the best bet for this travel would be Vishu. You see, he was the most hard working and senior most in our team. He would work late nights and we have never seen him telling no to anyone. At the same time we all knew that he worked crazy hard because he always wanted an onsite opportunity. So we were really excited and happy for him.
For the first time we noticed that excitement in Vishu. He was looking extremely happy about this. When we went to congratulate him for this opportunity, he told us that at the start of this year, he had promised his parents that he would make a visit to the Sabarimala in December to make this dream come true. Now this news was told to us in the month of December and by then Vishu had started his preparation for the Sabarimala pilgrimage. He had to fast for 41 days and not shave till the completion of pilgrimage. He wore a traditional black dress to work.
On Monday, our manager told Vishu that the vice president wanted to have a meeting with him that day. It was a meeting through web camera where he got to see and speak with the vice president at the client side. The meeting went off for about 30 minutes where they explained him the expectations and requirements for his travel. Overall he felt that the meeting went good and he was mentally all set to travel Singapore. Later his manager asked him about the meeting and he gave the same feedback. He also told that he would be informed about his travel date soon.
About 3 weeks went by after this conversation happened and there was no news about his travel dates. When inquired with his manager, they broke a news that the client gave a negative feedback about his appearance and felt he would not be suitable for this role. So they had cancelled his travel only for the reason because of his appearance. Vishu was totally upset about this and felt very disappointed that he was so close to fulfilling his dream and had lost a golden opportunity. When we heard about this, we were all shocked. We told him everything happens for the good and consoled him to complete the pilgrimage and try for next client opportunity.
Once back from his pilgrimage, Vishu took all the efforts and worked extra hard to not miss the next onsite travel. His hard work and devotion payed off. In the next onsite travel, he was chosen from our team to travel to Los Angeles for 1 year. This then got further extended and he is now travelling next month to India for a holiday. We are so excited to meet him and the power of first impression always comes to our mind whenever we think of his story.

Happy Anniversary Sir !!
"Class, today we are going to run 10KM without stopping. Those who stop will be made to run an additional 500 metres" yelled our sports sir. He was so passionate about sports that he would go running on every weekend. We also got to hear that he also went to a local gym in the evening and led a very healthy lifestyle.
He was an introvert by nature who had very few friends. He would always be seen with a serious face. I think one can count the number of times he must have smiled or laughed in our class.
He led a very disciplined life. He had a fit body, very good height, dusky complexion and tip-top dressing. But one thing that he sported always was a mustache and stubble. This somehow did not go well with his appearance and he looked cruel with his stubble.
Naturally with his behavior and appearance he failed to impress his lady-love, our Maths teacher. It was rumored that he had proposed to her once and she had rejected him. She was beautiful, gentle and kind which was a total contrast to his behavior. She was a very friendly person by nature and would engage in jovial conversations with us. During one such conversation, she too mentioned how much she hates men sporting mustache and stubble. This was probably the turning point of the entire story.
The next day we were all shocked to see our sir. He had somehow overheard this conversation and took her words so seriously that he Gillette-shaved his mustache and stubble that he had since god knows. He looked much different now. But definitely had a pleasant appearance. When asked the reason for this change he simply smiled and told that someone had commented over his stubble which hurt him badly. So he wanted to try a new look. In the days that went, not only did he change his appearance but his behavior also changed. He made a lot of friends and became good friends with maths teacher.
The next year we got the news of their engagement. We were very happy to hear this. In our next class, he personally invited all of us to their wedding. All of us were excited for them and could not help but think what change can shaving off a stubble do. If he had not come across that conversation about our teacher hating men with stubble, he would have continued being as he was. He would have never led a joyful life and got his lady love.Today marks their tenth wedding anniversary and over the years we still remember his story.
