How much it takes to discover your other side? Yes it did – 23 days of my India trip. Like all of you, I was also super excited when we booked tickets to my native land. If at all I could imagine me jumping up and down literally.(Yes literally, Sorry that you have to imagine it :P) That splendid joy of meeting my mom and dad, my home, my bike, my room, my PC and stuffs which my mom would be waiting to get rid of but I save it as treasure. So in order to fulfill my multiple requirements (wait, did I sound like a software engineer now? Uh, Nope definitely :P) I made my travel plan in a note. I want it to be a perfect one in which I don’t wanna miss a thing. I made list of places we desired to hang out in Chennai. It included my favorite restaurants, movies to be watched in massive screens and the mandate shopping. But of course my folks had their own list which added number of temples to visit, showing up to relative’s places and some boring activities. In the midst of all, I was prepared to travel eagerly and then the day has arrived.
In India, I majorly reside in my place and in laws’ place. When I was at my in laws’ home, woke up as early as I can i.e. 7.30 AM (I know..!) and helped with few household works even though my mom in law didn’t ask for any. I removed my childish mask and behaved so neat and well. Also I acted ideal right from my communication (in pure mother tongue, trust me it was very difficult) to being conduct with utmost decency. Part of me felt that it was not myself. Nevertheless, I perceive that it adds quality to my character. I never knew that I can keep calm, take responsibilities, limit my words and mingle with elders quite easily. But this is a reverse case when it comes to my home. I wake up in the morning when I really feel like. I taste food before the cooking is done. I keep max volume and listen to songs. I talk stories and stories nonstop (may god show mercy on poor listeners :P) and with other silly deeds.
However, I indulge myself in both the sides I have. I am sure this circumstance is very common for every married woman. I take pride in playing both the roles.
Because we have the willingness to listen, the patience to understand, the strength to support, the heart to care and just to be there! That is the beauty of a lady!

And now you became a wonderful writer. I am wondering how you have brought those moments through these lines in front of my eyes. Whoever read this will feel what you felt during the travel. You should really try to keep on writing a lot whenever you get time. You have a great talent who many of us doesn’t have that too in English ;).. keep going swathy all the best.
