SALUTE TO WOMANHOOD!

SALUTE TO WOMANHOOD!

Remember, when u marry a working women you should marry with these facts as well.

Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are; Who is earning almost as much as you do;

One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are;

One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your Sister hasen't, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements

One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers & sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life;

One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that, her home, people who love her, to adopt your home,
your family, your ways and even your family name.

One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from day #1, while you sleep oblivious to her predicament
in her new circumstances, environment and that kitchen.

One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in the morning and cook food at the end of the day, even
if she is as tired as you are,maybe more, and yet never ever expected to complain; to be a servant, a cook, a mother, a wife, even if she doesn't want to; and is learning just like you are as to what you want from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows that you won't like it if she is too demanding, or if she learns faster than you;

One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes boys and even men at her workplace too, those, who she
knows from school days and yet is willing to put all that on the back-burners to avoid your irrational jealousy, unnecessary competition and your inherent insecurities;

Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can, but won't, simply because you won't like it, even though you say otherwise

One, who can be late from work once in a while when deadlines, just like yours, are to be met;

One, who is doing her level best and wants to make this most important relationship in her entire life a
grand success, if you just help her some and trust her;

One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the only one she knows in your entire house - your
unstinted support, your sensitivities and most importantly - your understanding, or love, if you may call it.

That was an awesome piece Sharmi!!! Each and every ending phrase created a some sort of responsibility along with the fear lady has to go through unnecessarily.

These days as most of the woman will be working so every woman and her man must know all these fact and cope with this situation.
I will definitely share this piece and your thoughts with my frens. :)
