“I don’t think I can win this battle. All odds are stacked against me, and my voice will go unheard in the melee.” “What makes you feel less confident?” “It is a male dominated society, and they stand in support of each other.

What a Scrooge is the owner of this place! 1,2,3,4 … big … small … I count again, and report all is okay. … Continue reading What was she thinking?
I don’t know why, but ….
You scolded me yesterday, and I kept my face towards the wall for some time. I hope you got the message, because you petted me, before going to work today. I don’t know why but I still love you. Maybe, because I don’t have much else to do. Maybe, I am just created to love, … Continue reading I don’t know why, but ….
