True Likeness

True Likeness
The face of God I am to see
For I am blessed as I shall see
As every morning she opens to me
Giving me love deeper than the sea

My heart doesn’t long for paradise
For God is with me in guise
The peace of heaven is on earth
As every mother that spreads mirth

If God came down I wouldn’t know
To kneel down or bow
For all my life I thought His Greatness
Was in her ... His true likeness

I Bought A Pregnancy Test

I Bought A Pregnancy Test A few years back a friend of mine wanted to buy a pregnancy test, she hadn't got her period in sometime and wanted to confirm it first before she told anyone. I never actually thought of this. I always wondered about buying condoms or birth control pills but never about a pregnancy test. A pregnancy scare is something most girls face who are sexually active (I thought of saying most married women face but then I thought what the hell, why play it  safe). So a pregnancy scare comes with many nuances. First, do I tell my partner now? what would be his reaction? What do I want? ...and so on. Apparently these are not questions that only an "unmarried women" woman asks herself but even married women face similar questions in present day situations. They have a similar set of apprehensions like would he be happy with this new situation? his reaction? or the worst would he blame me for"letting" this happen? My friend belonged to the

The Freedom of Expression

The Freedom of Expression If you have ever been acquainted with a visually challenged person you will relate to what I am about to write about. For all of us more fortunate than the 7.8 million Indians who live with the challenges of being blind it is difficult to fully grasp the struggles they face on a daily basis.  My eyes were open to this reality when one of my visually challenged friends who came to Chennai to write an exam asked if I would be his scribe for a bank exam he had to give. My first reaction was, he already has a job why can't he be happy. I was immediately ashamed of the fact that I thought, that while its okay for me to pursue bigger dreams, he should be happy with the fact that he 'at least' has a job. To atone myself I immediately joked and asked him if I should also study for the exam, he was only overjoyed that I had agreed.  On the day of the exam I needed to locate where he was waiting for me. In general, giving directions to people i
