XX - XY chromosome

Relationships are complicated. Sometimes the more complicated than the human body. Relationship is one of the few things where English Vocabulary fails. Too few words to describe too many versions of it. Relationships seemed the sweetest thing till I finished High School. The Era of Mom, Dad, Aunt, Uncle, Brother, Sister,Niece, Nephew and in one word family. Everything felt simple and happy. Complications grew as our world became bigger. The minute we speak to the opposite gender, who is not blood - related the drama and trauma begins.

Maybe because it is taboo in the Indian society, Opposite gender relationships are always a battle. Parents load the kids with bogeyman stories and Kids gets a different version from friends. I never ever learned the lesson or meaning of a relationship with boys and men. Both are different and it is to be handled with care. We always learn our first lessons from home. Right from cooking to company management. And this is a lesson unlearned.The society has set too many rules in the boy girl relationship. This coupled with the rebelling trend can cause a lot of mess. Too many eyebrows are raised 


Where do we draw a line?
Can I treat him the way I treat my girl friends?
Will he exploit me?
Can I trust him?
What will others think of me?

The questions are endless. When we say a girl as a friend. The relationship is clearly defined. The expectations are set. The amount of compatibility and trust can vary from person to person. When we say a guy as a friend. The limitations begins. Is the restrictions based on the physical attributes or due to the psychological block. The answer is unknown.

Subconsciously we treat individual person in a different way. The same factors apply. Still these are a little over the board. The relationship vary from crush to lover. And each is defined by its own characteristics. The world might not understand the depth nor the truth about the relationship. They just criticize the girl or bookmark her as a epitome of evil. She might be true to herself and her world. Still the society has their own views and version to it.

This will change only when the change begins at home. Till then the complications of XX - XY chromosome will continue

Rock to Sculpture

Every person we meet creates an impact on us. The way the impact works is quite surprising. Sometimes the impact created by a stranger is more than the impact by a close friend. I always consider life as a block of coal or a big piece of rock. The journey from Coal to diamond or Rock to sculpture takes a lot of time and can also be painful. It does not happen with a single person or with a single incidence. The conversation process is continuous and can happen till our last breath. We get better and better with age and experience. I have never managed to understand when a person reaches his best. Maybe the level is unattainable. Still changes, both ups and downs happen throughout our lives. I remember an innocent hyper girl who wore sensitivity on her sleeve. The smallest spark was enough to set her on fire. She was on the extreme of emotions. The emotions can range from Happiness, sorrow, loneliness and anger. Still the emotions controlled her and stole her sleep many nights. ...

Digital India - A shortcut to Safer India

Digital India – A vision by the government, An expectation by the youth, A mystery for the public What does digital India mean? This question which pops into everyone’s mind and heart when they hear the term. It may also seem as an unattainable fruit to some. This is true to some extent. But this will definitely create a great change in the life of every individual. More than anything, I see this as stepping stone towards a safer nation. Safe nation is slowly becoming a distant dream. Some blame the women. Some blame the men. But maybe both and to some extent the nation as a whole is also responsible. Men harass women because they think they are helpless and vulnerable. Women allow this because they think men are stronger. Indians are not heartless enough to allow a crime happen right in front of their nose. Sometimes they become worried about the consequences of helping others. Thanks to the laws and corruption. I have always wondered what would be the hope and thought of a ...

Foot Prints on Time

Is age just a number? I wonder within myself Or it could have been aloud I can no longer tell My ears are sharp, but my mind is preoccupied I try recalling the past But it seems like a distant memory Everything is a blur of multiple emotions I wish I could see through them At least relive a few; forget many But life does not work that way I feel weary in my bones I wish I could rest But the journey is still not over I hope it is not long as before Almost half is what I can do My knees tremble as I gaze behind My eyesight dims as the distance increases I have come a long way Through different phases and even eras I look at the age Is it just a number? Did I ask myself this before? Is my work done? Can I do anything else? The questions keep adding. Was it memorable? It was interesting Was I happy? I forgot to tick the box. Am I mature? Only time will tell The age might not be just a number anymore It is a reminder to let go It is a reminder to cherish the small things It is a reminder to...
