Lovely Relationship – Mother & Son

I feel so happy writing about the topic which is very close to my heart : my toddler son – Ronav. It’s about the new born relationship between me and my son 1 year (+).  If I look back, I wonder is it only 14 + 9 month’s association???? However it feels like ages of togetherness JJJ

From last several months, I have not slept for 3-4 hours at a stretch, not done shopping for several hours, no movies, no long drives, not spent time with friends, no long chats on mobile, no parlour sessions, no leisure time, no news paper reading ( and Books – forget it). I really miss getting up late… L

But I don’t regret missing all these things because….. The moment I took this tiny divine soul named Ronav in my hands, he absolutely made me forget the 17 hours’ long labour pain. I could not thank God more. Though my day starts very early, it starts with wonderful smile which makes my day perfect. Despite the fact that I hate cooking, right now I have 3 recipe books of baby food and I have started enjoying cooking food. I don’t need TV serial drama for entertainment/Time Pass, I can spend hours just looking at Ronav’s cute and naughty activities (sometimes troublesome). Every time I think I wonder whether God takes classes of all tiny and unborn babies before sending them on earth -  how to cope up with new environment, how to cry, smile and to recognize mother and more ever learning new things step by step.

Earlier our life was just about both of us - my husband and me. But now it’s prefect family; Grand Parents, Parents and Ronav J. The grandparents have got the new duty of taking care of grand son when his parents are away for professional commitments. They really cherish spending time with him. When every morning, we both leave Ronav unwillingly for our respective offices, he completely supports his grandparents. I really thank him for that J… Our life revolves around Ronav. He has not only made us proud parents but he has started new chapter in his Grandparents’ Life. He has given wonderful reason to them to enjoy the life as a kid.

Ronav shows his affection for me in his unique way, I just can’t put it in words. But it’s amazing. They say that a relationship is always two way street. And I completely believe in the statement, except the Mother-Son/Daughter relationship. I know Ronav will have changed his priorities, once he is grown up, as we all do have changed. But for me, he will remain my heart beat and my first priorityJ..

Nevertheless Ronav has made me understand the real meaning of being a mother. Thanks Ronav JJJ… And Love you Aaai (my mother).

Celebrating being ME

If you are a woman, you may have been part of some or other event organized on the occasion on International Women’s Day. As a participant, you may have felt proud, encouraged, inspired, and acknowledged. I will say just don’t let your womanhood spirit die, within next few days. You are very privileged that you get the forums to get inspired.

The other day, I was thinking, do I really need this kind of Days, Events, Forums to feel proud about my womanhood.  Answer is big NOO. These may be just soft reminders.

We have grown up in a society, where we all worship Goddess LAKSHMI, SARASWATI AND KALI. We are the only one who can give birth to next generation. I can keep adding the attributes of womanhood. But we all are aware and understand the importance of the same. Still underestimate ourselves…..

Today’s scenario may have made us feel helpless, annoyed and little bit scary about our womanhood. But believe me; it won’t change unless we as women do some things. Making few laws, reservations and ample sympathy, will do nothing good for us. I want to share few points with you, which I believe, will surely help all of us:

1. Have faith in yourself, you can do any impossible thing in the world
2. Make yourself strong, mentally and as well as physically.
3. Be careful while choosing person to relay on. Don’t blindly have faith on anybody.
4. Am confident that you are inculcating a true sanskars/values in your child, but don’t forget to tell him that both the genders are equal, nobody is superior or inferior. Respect the other gender.
5. Being a well educated and having a supportive family, you are the most privileged. Don’t waste your this status quo, utilise it for other unprivileged women in our surroundings. Support them to come up by helping them in any means like knowledge sharing, mental support, economically if possible, guiding them.
6. Don’t keep any jealousy; they say ‘Most of the wars happened/happen in the world because of women and their jealousy’. Though I don’t believe it completely, still I will say be compassionate for each other.
7. Have zero tolerance for domestic abuse. Remember the person tolerating injustice is at bigger fault.
8. Always be well equipped. Carry most powerful weapons like knife, chili powder, even dust on the road can help you.
9. Be careful while travelling at night, I will not say, don’t travel at night. But take calculative risk.
10. Don’t neglect eve teasing on roads, harassment at workplaces. Take precautionary steps.
11. Be alert, let your presence of mind keep working all the time J
12. I can go on and on, adding the points to list, but most import is that have faith in you and be strong.  You are not less than superior.

Unless you don’t feel it within, unless you don’t believe it, nothing will change. So feel beauty within you, Celebrate the every moment of womanhood, Spread your happiness, Feel the strength within and Enjoy a bit of you……..

Because we all are unique, nobody can be like us.
