Quite true, isnt it? Life indeed is what happens while you are planning for other things. Other things like parents, kids, spouse, friends. So what happens to your life. Is someone else planning it for you. Most of the time yes. Its people around you who are planning things for you.
The other day I went on to meet one of my old friend. She appeared happy and contended with her life. A happy family as it appeared, blessed with beautiful angel. But as we got talking I saw how much efforts she was making to hide her tears. She was going through a lot of pain post delivery and despite all that she is expected to work more and more. Her health not supporting her and her pleads falling on deaf ears. The sight just filled me up with anger.. not against people responsible for her state but, on her for not speaking for herself. The same girl who would have eaten her parents' brains for not listening to her is now all quiet and waiting for some miracle. I feel if you make a doormat of urself, people will treat you so. so i think its time to change. Live for yourself not for others..atleast not people who don't have a substantial role in your life. make yourself heard when there is a need for it.
I hope my friend does speak for herself, get up and act before its too late. The whole incident has just reinforced the same old question before me on why Life changes post Marriage
