Strong subject line? Hear me out. The times when my mother made me want to scream my head off...
- When she thinks her arguements are always right even if deep down she knows she's wrong. She will continue to fight to make sure she wins.
- Her mentality of elders always being right! But that's not necessary true.
- The times when she tells me not to create a scene if a stranger or guest has been rude to a family member. I wonder, does she care about these random people more than my feelings? Why is she telling me to calm down when she should remind these strangers about manners. Are they more
important than me?
- When she has scolded me in public, even though not so obviously...she thinks she has the right to tell me off no matter where I am. At least now that I've grown up she shouldn't think she can tell me off whenever and wherever!
The times I have hated my sisters...
-When they tell me 'you looked a bit fat or your make up looked bad' or make a general comment about my appearance when I don't want to hear it. I tell them why would you want your own sister to feel like utter crap?! They tell me 'Who else is going to tell you if we don't?'.
- When my older sister lectures me on life, goals etc to the extent where we end up arguing and feel like we are just two completely different people who don't 'get' each other where as if I tell my friends who are more on 'my level' they understand where I'm coming from but then they don't go that extra step to scold me when I'm going on the wrong path. They have their own life to worry about but my annoying sisters are always telling me what's I need to get sorted.
So many things I hate about them and that's why I don't call them my God. But why does Manvi call her Di her God when she can't even understand her? Strangely...despite all the above I've written for my mum and sisters...they are above God for me. The writers don't show Jeevika as a flawless being, Manvi perceives her as one.
God forbid if I was diagnosed with a terminal illness, these three people would be living dead people. But they'd fight with all their might. They wouldn't give up, they wouldn't waste time. If they knew I had little time but there was a chance (even the smallest), they would DO something...anything to save me. Its not about how Jeevika saved Manvi, it's about how ultimately she was the only one to do something to save her instead of leaving it up to fate.
She doesn't get Manvi? My sisters don't always get me either. Jeevika tells Manvi off for others apparently? Well my parents don't always take my side either. They're still ek hazaron mein for me :)
