S-C-K-L* Blabber……


I am otherwise a very organized and a result oriented person. (at least that is what the internet personality tests reveal and my professional colleagues believe). For half of my life span (considering a modest human life span) I have done extremely meaningful things to achieve goals, aspirations and dreams. Every time leaving an empty feeling when you finally achieve the desired thing… And the circle continues…

Exhausted by the limited possibilities above option offers, for some time now I have turned out to new options… less meaningful things…. Things you do just for the sake of doing it, with no pre conceived results and notions attached to it…

As a part of this initiative the S-C-K-L blabber was born - Extensive 1 hour (lunch time is strictly restricted in our office premises) of blabbering at our Adda (picture attached) for more than one year now, we are the subject experts on blabbering’s…. Subjects vary from politics, human life, relationships, spirituality, societal norms, gold prices & of course our sweet Shreya (one year old princess)….The one hour of blabber gives us enough tonic to looking for meaning in rest 8 hours of day….

There’s only one song that can echo my feelings about this blabber group… ‘Dil Chahta Hai” title song over here

* S, C, K & L appear confident (otherwise confused) Indian adults who till now have been good girls and followed the conventions societal norms without questioning why… And after we came together as a group, we have questioned and deliberated on all the possibilities offered by the human life!!

A day to remember - Justice prevails !

She survived the alleged mass massacre at Devgarh Baria village in Gujarat on March 3 2002. BILKIS SPEAKS ''The courage of my truth saw me through. The judgement has finally meant some closure to a long and very painful journey. Many wounds will never heal but I am stronger today, and for that I am thankful.'' "Nobody would be able to deny that sexual violence was perpetrated against women in Gujarat during the riots." ''The State and its officials who emboldened, encouraged, and protected the criminals who destroyed life during the riots still remain free and unblemished." ''It was their job to protect me. The battle I have won today gives me strength for the much larger and perhaps longer struggle, which lies ahead.'' "I could not have made the six-year-long painful and fearful journey alone. I am grateful to the NHRC and the Supreme Court which transferred my case to Maharashtra." ''This judgement does not mean the end of hatred but it does mean that somewhere, somehow justice can prevail.'' "I and my family members are still living in fear. It is the duty of the Gujarat government to assure us of safety." "The frequent flip-flop of Zahira Sheikh has hurt the fight of innocent victims of Gujarat riots and has brought a bad name to the community."
