We chose to be part of the protest that was held in favor of Palestine at the Beehive last wednesday. As I stood there listening to the speeches I felt blessed, privileged enough for the choice I had. The option that I can to come out of my home, hold a placard and support the cause is rare in this world.

‘Jab khud Maa banogi to pata chaley ga!!’-
Ammi would say this quite often and we used to laugh it off when we were younger.
I remember once we went to Murree, we (siblings) tried to take a sneak peek down a high winding road which wasn’t secured by a railing. Ammi was terrified and even though Abbu was with us, she was constantly refraining us from moving ahead while holding hands of 2 of the youngest ones among us. The whole situation looked hilarious to us that time and we made fun of it.

Today we have completed one week of official lockdown in NZ, the lockdown didn’t make any difference to our lives since we were practicing social distancing ever since we got to know that the deadly virus has reached Wellington too.

My brain is not working properly since the last couple of days (read weeks, months, years). Don’t worry I am not suffering from any medical condition alhamdulillah, just going through the usual ‘being forgetful’ phase AKA life-long extension of mommy brain disorder… lol.

You stay at home – You don’t do anything!
Generally, I don’t get to hear negative statements about myself. Naaa, It’s not because I am so good that people don’t get a chance to pass their precious comments about me – Nope, not at all! lol. The reason is that I totally avoid such toxic, judgmental, I-know-it-all kinda peeps… trust me this is the best way to dodge away those pessimistic statements and lead a happy care-free life.
However, there are days when you are bound to get scrutinized by people from such shitty mentality clan and you Continue reading “You stay at home – You don’t do anything!”
