Choices

G as always beautiful collage that encompasses all the emotions of the episode, and what a brilliant title! We are indeed a product of our choices, what an apt description of the episode!

"Beauty does not bring happiness to the one who possesses it, but to the one who loves and admires it." - Hesse

The quote above describe Ishra so well, Ishita's beauty, inside and out brings tremendous joy to Raman, who now in love with his wife, wants the world to celebrate her beauty. The man is in love and that too hopelessly, he wants the world to know his source of happiness, on the other hand Ishita too hopelessly in love is fighting her insecurities. Call me twisted but I like that she feels insecure wearing that dress, I think this will provide an opportunity for Raman to make her feel secure and beautiful.

What I liked, Raman with authority saying, 'you are gonna wear this and I am not going to forgive you easy', Ishita shocked and hurt at finding 15 lakh present for 'Shagun', she wants puttar and his gaudy taste to herself!

PS: I am not expecting logic, cos Ishita has worn dresses before so I do not know why all of a sudden this adverse reaction to wearing one but I guess to move the story along they are taking creative liberties.

Lovely photo essay Gandhari

Y is there so much pink in background, my eyes hurt 😕

I've been following your posts lately!
I like the quote today.
I know she neglected his gesture. The extremely
annoying and illogical thing today was
- The saare she wore when she received the gown had
a backless blouse (fine her hair covered the back)
. The saare she wore at the Cocktail party has a backless
gown too.
I don't know what to say.

Yeah but, Nice Post! I love the collage!

Gan...😛 Beautiful collage 😳😳

Surprisingly I too have thought of Rowling Gan -

"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

Last night two women ended up crossing paths again over an outfit; one wanted it because it was her stubbornnes, it was a matter of ego for her...she wanted to stand out in what she perceived was an object that would make her the center of attention.

Her aim was to have every eye in that room on herself; she wanted to be the cynosure of everyone' eyes. She wanted men to lust for her and women to envy her - she seeked power.

Another woman ended up with the object, something she found herself uncomfortable with. She didnt want to stand out in something that screams look at me; she wanted to blend in. If she seeked attention and appreciation it was from just a pair of eyes - the only one she wanted on herself - her husband', the man she is in love with. She knew with her choice she would have him miffed, he would be angry, upset with her - but she also knew something else...that no one else apart from him would even pay her that much of an attention - which is precisely what she wanted, she just wanted him captivated..she wanted him and only his attention for herself.

She walked in well prepared for his anger, his disappointment - his every reaction- but she also knew he would come around, she would make that happen...that speaks of a woman confident of herself, her choice and mostly of her love and the man she is in love with, the fact that she knows him well now... if she can rile him up she can cool him down too

This woman holds power even without seeking it out, even without wanting it. And somewhere the man now knows this too - that this woman holds power over him, he tried, he gave it his very best but she wore him down - he couldnt keep her out, he couldnt keep himself aloof from her even if that was his resolution...he has stopped fighting himself over this now, he puts up a show just because he is scared to let her know that she holds that kinda power over him, scarred by his past he still is wary of people and things but one day even this resistance, the last of his defence, the last arrow in his quiver, in his arsenal will be wasted and he would bow down and surrender.

As Dumbeldore says - Those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well."

don't worry. Ishu already sorted out the issue. Well she says about choices too...and the dress was not really Ishita's type. wearing it to a public gathering would have made her uncomfortable. Raman wont understand tht coz he is a man. Toshiji understood u c. But u r absolutely right abt Shagun and Mihika and Ishu should learn to say NO.
