The things you do for me

You may not listen to every word I say
But you know what I need every day
All the little help with the cooking
And the continuous time spent cleaning

You may not like my every decision
But I know you are my man for e
very mission
For every mile I add to our travel
I know you control the need for a battle

You may not like the lazy part of me
But I know you definitely love my daisy dee
All the care you love giving our mom
That you are now her son, I have this qualm

You may not like my love for the night
And I know every day its sleep that you fight
But from all of the things you do for me
What I love most, is you let me be me

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

What I want?

Before I Turn 27 Its one hour before I turn 27 I keep wondering how one more year went by in my life. I was thinking what I wanted and what I don't. I thought I would watch just one more movie before it turns 12 and my family will call me. I thought why not just switch off my phone and sleep off, one year back this is what I did. I closed myself from the world. I just hurt the people who love me and thats also just a handful of people.  As the years go by I notice lesser people messaging me and at 10pm today I cried to my sister how my room mate is weighing her options about how she spends her time with me, how my boy friend didnt bother to get me a gift, okay he was sick and all but according to me he should have got me something atleast before I landed in town, how less and less people do things for me.  Then my little sister is good at making me happy and is very convincing but it keeps coming back. What if next year it will be only my two sisters calling and my mo
