A path less chosen

Posted by Aparna.Burjwal on 19/03/2010

road not takenMy daughter has passed in all the subjects and that is a huge relief. For both of us, school is a concentration camp. The only relief being that you can go home after a few hours. Celebration time!

Ok, I had a lot of work to do, which I did not. I mean there is something called inspiration. I need to feel inspired. And I am just not in that place at the moment. A lot of people are selling inspiration and motivation in the market today but that is just not for me. So I have just done the bare basics. Kuch to kiya hai.

A white board has been put in my room by my daughter to do the calculations. Since that is what I do most of the times. Also since I forget very often now and keep re-calculating.

I am pushing for payments from existing clients and this is making me a villain. I already am one, in my family, in the society at large but the tribe of people who see me as this anti-hero (ine?) is increasing. What is to be done. It is what it is and it is not what it is not.

Nothing has been easy and sometimes I wonder the worthiness of this path. It is a path less chosen.

But I hope it makes a difference, to the next generation and to the larger fraternity of women across the globe.

Just ‘being’ for now.
