Rant of a desperate Girlfriend

The story continues-Part-2

And Lets assume what these conventional minds (as in the Parents-Mom-Dad -ama-abba-abbu gee and meri maa -uski maa-unkay abbu and hamaray abbu) brood and play in  their recorder to us ; is even correct.

Why is it so difficult to say 'yes' .
Isn't this too self-opinionated a system where what I think for my child is correct and what he; the boy (bechara') the poor soul who; am sure has certainly given a lot of time thinking and finally taken decision is WRONG '.

I mean really , why this haye haww and hum tu barbaad hogaye wala Complex scene all the time.

Am sure if i was a parent and I was to take such a decision I will definitely have a TALK and go about all my concerns and ensure he is safe and well-prepared for his future.And if he is not i will rather prepare him and give him whatever "add-on's he need to complete and climb this mount Everest jitni life.

Its really upsetting that half or may be 99% of Asian parents think and see from ' some maa ki ankh' as they call it which in their emotional dictionary definitely means " i tell you how to live , sit and eat , you are born to follow.'

I might sound very emotional too but I actually feel sad that a lot of these girls  and boys are genuinely good kids.
They do look forward for their parents approvals and at the end they either run away or do some forcefully arranged less unhappy marriages and fail to even go back on their parents and say ' Look what you did to me >>'

I know this friend of mine, a very genuine person, amazingly qualified an engineer , married this army guy -an arranged setup and got divorced like few days after her nikkah and nobody raised it against parents.Forget anyone else, SHE didn't. And all we saw was the family broke inside;as in nobody trusted each other again.

So why not let these life decisions be taken by the one who are the real drivers of that journey and not the ones watching the race.Am sure the driver would know better and not the ones who might be more experienced drivers some 20+ more years experience.Accepted!

But was it a good sample for them to make judgements?

Didn't you just  had one machine not all. I think every human is different and we should have in entirety complete freedom to live, chose and drive our lives ourselves.

You only married one 'woman' than why so predictive about all the women out there?
why so protective towards your children that you never let them marry.

I mean half of my age fellows are not married because their parents were very tough on them or the girl friend parents changed positions, so yeah  monster or no monsters something was always there.

The part of comments i heard from these people is crazy , funny and ironical at the same time.

Abba to the candidate : Beta you don't earn enough , I cant trust my daughter with you.
Criticism: alright tu uncle do u expect him to drive a jaguar at the age of 24 or own a helicopter?

Abba again : No you cant, she is from a different mazhab and it will be  a disaster if you did it.
Criticism : O man really like you married one and you know how it goes, am sure one of your friend did that and you made assumptions of their lives and passed it on to everyone.Surely you never saw beyond their bad stories, their good and happy moments and amazing lifestyle.As you were so judgmental , that all you saw was a thin line on the windscreen and not the beautiful view ahead.

Forget this , there is a lot more than just these opinions .Each time these kids go out, the parents would criticize and emotionally abuse them to the point that they self-doubt and literally lose it at times.


There is this dark side of the moon and the bright side.I wish people could see the bright one more clearly ,so much so that the dark gets invisible or at least 'Acceptable'.

When I  was like 18, I would read a lot into peoples relationship lives and a lot of me changed.
I realized and learned how to let go and let people be free from a completely conservative to a completely non-judgmental way.

And the change made things so easy that it surprises me sometime.

Like I really think we need to ask our parents for good or bad.
Can you at least let us try even if we have to fall and learn ?
And we truly need you to understand us, to support us , no matter what!
Try not to judge people and pre-assume things?
And For good Lord sake , stop emotionally abusing and black mailing us?

So yes , the youth need to learn the art of convincing their parents and never in any case ,decide to leave their parents.

I mean that just shouldn't be an option for anyone, no matter what islam says to you, it never said , leave the ones who gave you everything.

All it should mean is to convince them and make them your support even for your life to come.
 So yes love them , even more and just try to bring change in the family dynamics.It will take ages but yeah it will change things.

Love Struck-Walking down the memory lane

Fifteen years later who knew where we will be, the man who rode my office van still drives the same van, the car washer who used to wipe the windscreen of the cars, is probably dead or sick or may be still dragging his body and doing the same freaking job that paid him nothing more than dimes to pass his day and next morning he was again empty pockets, shabby face and lost in the mob kind of guy who surely no one notice.   I sipped my coffee now and I sipped my coffee than, the only difference is the brand I sipped has changed from Nescafe Espresso to a local Thai coffee brand called "aorta coffee from the Old Phuket Town “the one with amazing flavor and aroma. I however feel the same person, I feel my body has the same person inside, the same heart and the same old habits except I look different. I feel I look a little more motherly than the girl, a little more house owner and a wife of a business tycoon. Sometimes it's the burden outside and sometimes it's the ...

CONCEPTION AND MONSTER-IN LAW

Hi mommies As much as I want to pour down my thoughts, my experiences, and all that we go through and share it. I want to stop and start with a heads up to all the new parents and newly Weds and new moms or Peggy ladies. Parenthood is something we choose, some of us are forced to subconsciously and consciously and we don't get to know what we are getting into..So if you find yourself in this condition...Please read this and be WARE of these slyly Monsters around you... So they would say you are getting old  : "Uff 30 ki hogayi ho..... bhuddi hojaogee..bhaeee buhat mushkil hota hai---jaldi karlo werna kuch ke tu Aulaaaad hee nahi hoti....' And others will say  "Bas ab tu mein intizaar mein hon kab meri poti potta ayein aur mein unke saath khiloon ?" And some would express their want to stitch clothes for their grandsons and grand daughters and make you realize how important it is to conceive. Although for their own daughters , the voice notes will be a little diff...

I call it My Religion"

Yes it kills me, its shuffles my soul, my tender bones and my muscles creep in pain. I feel that silently yet loudly. I see my Islam being forsaken I see my religion being taken I see it all Gone and withered I see you with no soul I see them all going whispers and chaos You don't even see the change. I feel it in my chest I feel it in my eyes It hurts, it aches  It is sabotaged From I don’t pray, to I don’t fast and from he is my prophet to there is no Allah. What are these transitions? Who has driven them? You close your eyes so often, that you don't even see your maker? He doesn’t need your prayers, it’s but you who need it. It hurts me, it aches  Its leaves me numb I am not a fundamentalist I don’t have to be  I am just a Soul I don’t know who you call " Me" I don’t know what’s my definition  I just know; I know am wrong if I don’t pray I know am wrong if I don’t believe I know am dead if I don’t feel Wh...
