Dear God
Sample this:
Wearing a new dress, you approach your office. Everyone who is
standing there turns their head in your direction. Suddenly one of them says:
Waah madam aaj to kya lag rhi ho aap
All this while scanning you from head to toe.
Then this:
You are unmarried and this fact is well known in your office. Yet
you get invites official or otherwise where there is a clear mention of a
certain Mrs. ‘Yours truly’. Hash!! Man give me a break.
And then this:
You get random messages from people in your office citing
invitations for dinner, coffee, outings etc. All this when you have not shown
any interest in the person concerned all this while. Time and again you clarify
that you are least interested in talking or even getting to know this person.
And the one which takes the cake is:
Bacche krne ki umr nikli ja rhi hai tumhari. Jaldi karo warna budha
jaogi to koi fayda nahin hoga.
You put up a fight on so many fronts in life and one of them is
work. When you step out of your home, sweet home you fight not one but many battles
in the giant war against the world. One of the battles is proving you alone are
enough to face the world and represent you. Being unmarried is a personal
choice and yet in your professional life it becomes a war of two worlds: one
prim proper, husband, children wala and the other visits to vets, hometown,
trips and living alone wala.
Please admit that you envy my life and you want to be free too.
Not this sly undermining of my situation, backhanded compliments and tirchchi nazariya on my car, my driving,
my new clothes, accessories and so on….
