It's a Two Steps Process

It's A Two Steps Process

Earlier, in the co-ed schools, the boys and the girls used to learn different skills -- While the girls went in for stitching class, the boys were taken to a different class-room to learn handicraft.

So, right from the childhood there was a clear demarcation between the tasks for girls and boys. And what's more, they were officially taught that way.

An Urban Dilemma.

A Road Trip To South Maharashtra

My husband had some assignment at the southern end of Maharashtra and he decided to travel by road. Should I join? Hmmm? Well, why not?

Now one would wonder, what has brought about this sudden outburst? What else? -- one more has bitten the dust.

Resolution? Surely Not!

Resolution? Surely not!

If resolutions are meant to be broken, then why make any in the first place!

• So the first one on my Not-To-Do list would be - No Resolutions for the new year! There! I guess it is working already! Well, well I am already feeling light, you see. No trudging through the entire year with heavy burden of broken promises -- which I had stupidly made to myself. No guilt of 'Why-Couldn't-I-Keep-My- Resolutions -even - for- a- decent - time period'. Hah! That's some Freedom!
