Suhana's Corner:Reflecting on the year gone by or 2010, a truning point in my life. |
Hey everyone, I hope that all of you are doing well and looking forward to celebrating the festival season. I hope 2010 was a wonderful year for all of you. |
I've had a very interesting year. My life has completely changed. I'm married and have responsibilities of a wife and daughter-in-law, which surprisingly I am enjoying immensely. I consider myself lucky for having such a family, who has given me all the love and support. My father did the best thing for me by marrying me into the Kashyap family. Initially I resented him for it, but I think it's the best thing he has done for me.
I'll admit that I married to prove to Sid that I was marriage material, but it was the wrong way to go about it. However, I'm grateful to Sid for it was because of his remarks that I am happy today. Initially it was difficult to adjust to the family because their lifestyle was something that I could not relate to. Earlier, I'd avoid the family discussions, but today I make myself an active member in what's happening in the family. I love spending time with Inder and Elesh bhaiya, as well as Rajni and Disha bhabhi, who are like my sisters. They have taught me to be a better person and they have been so accommodating and adjusting to my mood swings and the way I was when I moved into the Kashyap home.
I am particularly thankful to Badi Ma, who has been like a mother to me. She has shown me that life's problems are something you learn from and move on. It helps you become a stronger person. She has been such a positive influence in my life. I don't think that my life would be complete without her. She is an inspiration to all. I can say the same about Radha Bua. Both women are inspiration to all of us.
However, I wouldn't be part of the Kashyap family if it wasn't for Ishaan. He has supported me and has been there even when I was in love with Sid. He was a pillar of strength when I ended things with Sid. He has supported my decisions and he is a through and through gentleman and put up with all my tantrums with so much patience. He is my Bholu and I must admit that I don't know how exactly I feel about him. For the first time in my life, I entered the kitchen and cooked a continental meal for him, which he loved.
I should also thank my father -in- law for convincing me not to leave the house and I'm glad that I didn't.
While it's too early to say, but I hope that what I have with Ishaan reaches a level like dada and dadi. Their love story is so inspirational and it's one of my favourite tales. It's just such a joy to be part of such a loving, clos-knit family, I guess I really should count my blessings.
