I ran
away from home once. I was 10 years old. I carried with me, my school books and
my school uniform and wore my birthday dress cause it was my favorite ( yeah, school was always important to me. I thought the nuns
of my convent school would adopt me I guess). Walked 1 km away from home, realized my bag was heavy, that I miss mom already and it was not worth the trashing if they did trace me (which I knew my mom was capable of) and returned. Till date
that remains the only brave things I did……….
.............................Now wait a minute that’s not it.
I am a brave
girl and I have many more to add to my list of brave things …
1) I left home to pursue my education abroad.
2) I walked out of a bad relationship and
rebuilt my life.
3) I left my well set career in Mumbai to
explore a new one in Bengaluru and failed (because I had a
d*** for a boss and a D** for a colleague) and
then succeeded again.
4) I hit a guy in train because he messed
with my best friend, with no worry of how it would back
fire.
5) I questioned my professor when he wouldn’t let
me submit my assignment because I was a few hours late and got him to accept it
without saying a sorry
6) I questioned my parents over their choice of
spouse for me and didn’t settle.
7) I married the love of my life and my best
friend despite the odds.
8) Went to the police station and filed an NOC for my friend who was being harassed by a stalker.
And many
more.
Every woman has
a heart of a warrior in her and she can accomplish so much with knowing exactly
how brave she is. If only every girl
knew that.
To quote Guru Beyonce :-) I am a dragon breathing fire! Beautiful Mane, I am the lion.
