“Hi, I need to talk,”ย she said… on the phone. She needed to talk she said. You know how if a girl says she needs to talk, the guy suddenly goes into instant flashback mode to find out where he might have screwed up. But wait! She saidย “I need to talk”ย and notย “we need to talk”ย so this […]
We all are so accustomed to living in our little world, scared to step out of our comfort zones and explore. I know its all not just me, but most of us are sailing in the same boat. I remember myself as an ambitious and adventurous soul ever since i got into school and colleges. […]
11 years back a girl boarded her maiden international flight to a land that fate had reserved for her. 23 years spent amidst her family, loved ones, friends, a known culture, and a habituated language. And suddenly it dawns upon her as she sets foot offshore, she is away, miles away from them. Though a […]
Bearing a tag – ‘Fragile: Handle with Care‘, I lived my whole life till I stepped on the soil of the City of Joy – Kolkata in the year 2001. Till then I had lived my life amidst close relatives and family in a very cozy and warm atmosphere. I had never done anything on […]
Escapades from the din and humdrum of routine life are fun, exciting, adventurous, a tad scary at times and offer elements of surprise that one would cherish or banish from memory forever.

โLockdown for 21 daysโ- many generations witnessed it for the first time in their lives, perplexed and scared, we all waited, unaware of what was going to happen next. As COVID started spreading its tentacles, lockdown increased. We felt blessed to be at home, safe and together with family and started to spend the time […]

A great new take on fairy tales. I’ve never thought about it before, but they are all stereotypes of the helpless girl needing a man to sort things out for her. Not very good role models for the 21st century.

Thank You So Very Much for taking out time to read and comment. It’s true, Lil girls look up to these Princesses, they are their role models. And I think they should learn to be strong and determined. They shouldn’t need a man to save the day. They are absolutely capable of doing it themselves.
