Catfight

At every step of my life, I've noticed competition and envy. Competition to get a husband, competition to please a husband, competition to have a child, competition that your child does well. If the life of an average Indian woman was at all defined, by one word, the word would be competition. Competition in different contexts and a range of them in the same context. Birth to education to beauty to career to wedding to children to houses to cars to diamonds to estates to world trips to social dinners to.. the list in in-exhaustive.
Imagine for once if we, women could do away with all this competition for one whole day, wouldn't that be something like going to a spa and getting all the toxins out of our system? How refreshing would that be? How loving? By God's grace, it would be like little drops of scented rain falling upon us...like not drops of rain..but as if peace had fission-ed into zillions of particles and is now being endowed upon us... like it was .. on the prophets..only for a day..! Just the thought of it makes my body chill...and makes my heart melt..... the beauty of it..the sanctity of it...the feel of being christened once again...as if it were the holy waters......! So much could getting wet in rain do to our minds..and our hearts...! Only if we were to imagine it the right way....percieve it in our context! Imagination is easy and free of cost but can entirely change one's perception and importance of things. Cheap thrills do have their stand in our lives!
