This is so true di , I feel lot of positivity when I come to the forum and read posts here , I am able to get various perceptions and ideas .
Its true that the bad people exist in the world but its equally true that if they exist , the good exists too .
And i have seen it , experienced it
And the change shall come ,
I would have complained about people obstructing my path to live with principle but i cannot deny the fact here that there are several like me and when we get together no force can stop me .

About those gender norms thats a big problem u see , and change is slow to come but yes its again coming because society is comprised of people , of me and u if we broaden our mindset then half the work is done .
Shruthi di keep writing

I loved today's episode for its varied depiction of human emotions. Two mothers standing on the threshold of change-Kaikeyi letting go of her expectations and reservations for her son's choice of bride, on understanding that his happiness mattered more than any of her beliefs. Then there was Sunaina knowing that her daughter's journey away from her was inevitable...but held back by her memories , not being able to let go. Her misgivings and her sorrow at the swift passage of time was wonderfully shown. It brought back memories of the time when I was getting married. My father complaining about how quickly I had grown up {he forgot all the trials and tribulations involved in bringing me up}😉and my mother's expression on seeing me pack my stuff...Marriage does involve a lot of letting go from both the bride's as well as the groom's family, doesn't it?
Ram and Sita's conversation ...you are right Shruthi, what a smart way to get the answers he wanted. Her confession had enough beauty, innocence,depth and logic to appease him. I could not deduct any surprise on his face at her confession ,it was like he wanted to reiterate to himself that his feelings were not one sided,but fully reciprocated by her.{here Ram reminded of Krishna...this Ram is making me do it often for the first time}.Ofcourse being a man ,he could not stop himself from questioning her on her 'anubhuti' and Vishwas!😆
I too have read the book 'women are from venus...' and quote it to myself often when faced with the male psyche. Have been after my sometimes ,clueless hubby to read it...but have not managed to do it so far...Savita

@sugnaya thank you dear for liking it. Let me put one more point. A man with virtuous quality always knows his maryada and will never demand a physical relation with a woman before marriage during courting period. And if he demands, a woman always have the right to say no. And if it comes to emotional blackmailing of " you don't trust me etc etc" understand something is fishy. Because there is no question of trust coming into picture during courting period for physical relation. I have heard girls telling, he asked me, how I can deny blah blah. Have a level head on your shoulders girls is all I can say. If you have physical relation before marriage from a society point of view you are weakened. He can leave you. You can cry, shout and tell he cheated me and all but in the end society will point fingers at you. You will be isolated. But the situation post marriage is different. Even if husband leaves you, you have kids, still society will be sympathetic to you, the kids will not be harassed in the society. Society will be blaming the man in a way. So understand your power. The problem with women is that they don't understand when they have power and men very well know when they have power as far as society goes. To break patriarchy the only way is to understand the rules of the patriarchy society and use the same rules to cut through it.

As a spinster girl from this present society i could relate to wat u say really well 😳


Yeah , The society we live always blames women who have been wronged in a way leaving the Man who wrongs her As the Saying goes , Be a Roman if we live in Rome - We must follow certain things wen we live in some society !! I would say that , watever decision we take in life must be based on the fact that we deal with it , watever happens - both positive & Negative .


So the only way is We must think twice/ thrice or even Much more times b4 taking any decisions in Life and here i would like to quote that beautiful scene of Sita n urmila when Raja Janak announces his decision of Svayamvar , The Point where she heeds to her father's decision rather than moving on with her anubhooti which is not sure from his side and instead of messing up things she leaves the decision to her father which was much thought after . Certain Things when we r not able to or rather not capable of taking any decisions in life we must stick on to our patience and listen to wat our elders say !! Which will surely be thought after and will have some Personal Experience on that Front 😳

This is wat i would do , if any conflict occurs in any point of my life and yes i m content with the decisions they make . It all depends on the way we interpret n view it 😊 So one must always be capable of thinking matters off deeply , before making any hasty decisions . As for ur point , it deeply connects with the matter i said above !! A girl must always be mature to think matters and make wise decisions , especially wen it concerns her life n future 😳

@vipraja no one can alone bring change. But we can try. When I write I know there are many young readers who throng my post. If atleast couple of them understand the essence and change their lives, that itself is a big thing. Through them next couple of people will change. It is a chain reaction. Negative spreads fast. But if some effort is put positive also can spread is my take.

I always have the choice of looking into what is not correct in SKR as per the original Ramayan and put my thoughts in the distortion thread. I have another option of finding out if there is something good in the episode and pen my thoughts on the same for wider audience to read. That gives me more inner peace as I share my positive knowledge with others. And for me when I write inner peace is of utmost importance as writing is stress buster for me.



That's the best part !
I share the exact point of view on positivity and talking about it , eloquently putting it forward for many to think about it etc.
I appreciate greatly this initiative of yours .
I am also of the opinion that good needs to be talked more by at least those who can see and acknowledge it . Bring it to focus in ways where it gets better noticed !
I am even more thrilled at the thought that the forum with different interests serves this purpose ( whichis otherwise quite rare ) too!

i have been doing this while I talk to friends or family to observe the subtle messages that show brings in being a different dimension in itself for an epic drama .
I strongly believe that if good is as strongly talked about as it should there would be more people who be encouraged to act so too!

All in all , I am enjoying all your posts as many a times I see my thoughts put forward through your skilful writing .
Good luck for more in the coming days .
