A simple thought for the other half


She was in her zone. In those special times when she is focused and knows what to do and how to do. When the what, why and where is clear in mind. Something to do and leave a mark. It was not much about money but there was this nagging ache somewhere... Ohh to be recognised as greatest in the world. She of all people, being very practical knew it is not easy... It was damn difficult but she also knew it was not impossible. Like any ordinary person who has huge bag load of ambition and eyes full of dream.. she wanted to make a difference. She was the lovely fighter, and never wants to give up. So what she got married at tender age despite being one of the smartest in university. So what she had to adopt a family and follow the norms of society. So what she was told 'this is it'. Remain satisfied with what you got and stop dreaming about yourself. You are allowed to dream only about others, help others to achieve their dream. Life long 'sewa'.  But she dreamed
....
Dreamed to be someone to be recognised. Someone to make difference and get recognised. Little hatke. With fiery desire...In her heart. Was there support?. Yes.. but limited.
Does the above paragraph seems cliche. It is..The same story in and around you , my dear man... And we the superb men of India act like ostrich and keep our head inside the sand. Not out of fear but sheer lack of empathy. That has made us lose a huge chunk of precious human capital. I wonder if we could have harnessed this 'sakti' properly ..How will we be benefitted. It will be sheer astronomical gain.
How do I contribute to.make it better for her?
As a start, encourage and encourage. There are enough people to say negatives and pull her down. I don't want to be the one.
Because I wonder even if I the one third the zeal what she has... I would be a much better man.
And they deserve my unconditional love. Love which is without agenda and love which is without any expectation.
Third, they will face conflicts from different players  and layers of relationship. I will have to help her, sometimes i may seema foolish but let it be.  She deserve to have atleast one who thinks the world of her and loves her a little too much.
Will it make any big impact?
The jury will be out till there will be some visible results. But yes, there will be eternal satisfaction... I tried.
P.S.. and-Then there is this lady whom i love little too much.. who would like to sleep a little bit more. I want her to be guilt free and often tell it is ok to let her hair down a bit-- it is ok to have different push and pull in life. Have so many commitments at different front. anyways seven hours is must at this age and profile. We can never compare or strive to be another Modi-- that relentless prime minister who i wonder when he rests.. and still achieves so much more. Lead a lovely and blessed life.
