Yes, I am a GIRL...
Of course I am a girl but does mean that when I feel jealous, people will give that obvious sigh and say that "We should have expected this. You are a girl after all." I hate this reaction. I hate being called a girl and I have hated it since I was a little girl. My Grand Ma hates me and loves my sister because she can do the kitchen stuff better than me. Now, why is it that girls have been given this weird image of being the evil creatures who keep bitching around, gossip, have no sense, and should do nothing but manage home. Is this not unfair?
Have you ever met guy who has never gossiped in his life? I haven't. So why is there this stigma attached a girl that if you tell her something it is bound to be gossiped about; and if two girls are friends, they are not actually friends, they are secretly enemies.
I have a lot of friends in girls like Aanchal and my sister, even Deepika is a great friend but the thing is that I hate being compared to either of them. All of us are different souls and each soul has a different journey. Then why should anyone compare one of us with the others. I am not jealous just that I hate this tendency of comparison.
Also, something has been troubling me for a while now. Why is it that, however much I try to act mature and good, I end up hating Meenal? Is is envy?
Until last night, I was convinced that it was. But since then I have been analysing the whole situation. How can I envy a person with whom I have nothing in common except that our gender is the same? We come from very different family backgronds, have different friends, have different ideas about life. Then what is it that makes me hate her so much? Its not envy at all.
Its my intolerance of little stupid things she does which I am very particular about. Thats it.
I don't have the slightest of an idea why I am writing this post. Perhaps it is to calm myself down and put an end to the plethora of negative and angry thoughts coming into my mind right now, but its my blog and I can do it.
I just want myself to know that I am a human and I am not the ideal creation of God, but still I am a nice person at heart and that is who I am. If I can live the rest of my life being myself, without faking my choices and being me, I'll consider it my life well lived and perfect in its own respect. I will like it if people see me as a human and not categorize me as being a girl.
I am proud of being a girl and I despite being the evil creature, men think a girl is; it is only a girl who is capable of the love and care a mother, sister and a wife bestow upon men.

hurray!!! cheers to all girls... well said, though i think u should calm down a bit. stop racing your thoughts on that aspect that tells you " u r not gud enough" but which tells you " u are what you are, a girl, a normal god created human being who has every right in the world to hate, envy and love too"...

ReplyDelete(ten more minutes of non-stop laugh)
And do tell me whoever said anything about you being a girl. How dare he?
Ahem ahem, but your last point was undeniable. Like I always tend to skip the stuff (read love, feelings, relationships and all you can imagine) but you can write blogs on it. Last but not the least, that you managed to write these things in public is totally appreciable.
Loved this post bcoz of it's innocence. So natural and straight fom heart makes it pecial writing of yours. Keep going this way !
