Art has saved us more often than we realise.

I turn to poetry only in two instances:
One when an emotion too strong gets hold of me.
The other when I wish to pour but also conceal.

Not all women dream of a career. Some want to choose a simple life and be there for their family.

But life has different plans for everyone. Some women are forced to take up jobs, turn a hobby into an income, or tackle finances just to keep the children fed, bills paid and family running smoothly.

She is forced into the role of both the provider and caregiver, walking in two pairs of shoes at once.

Society doesn’t stop even once to ask if this is what she wanted. Instead, it’s quick to judge and label her as disobedient, dominant and what-not just because she realised what the husband gives for family expenses doesn’t match the economic reality. She is blamed for not living beneath her means when the truth is she never tried to earn for herself but for her family’s needs.

Look around. Ask the right questions. Don’t judge without knowing the full story.

Not all women have a support system. Sometimes, she’s the whole system everyone leans on.
