Walk of life

  Miss to Mrs..... Tomorrow is my wedding day. Tomorrow I will turn from a Miss to Mrs. Tomorrow I will be daughter of my father....and also Wife of my husband. Tomorrow I will also be a Daughter in Law of another Family. Butterflies tonight..... Mixed reactions.... Excitement to start a new chapter in my Life...... Anxiety to shift to another home....a new place,a different State,a different language, a different environment. Emotional...... This is my last night in the place I was born....The State I took my education.... The language I conversed daily..... This house I spent my childhood.... This bed I would roll lazily.... My neighborhood I spent moments.... My friends I gossiped with..... My family ..... My Dad with whom I discussed freely..... My Mom with whom I argued and fought over so many things..... My brother with whom I learnt flying kites and caught butterflies..... So many questions in my mind..... My life will change overnight..... Will I  ...

 Couple and Finance. - Dr Tripti Milind Galgali, Hubli. I am not a Financial wizard .I believe in the Marathi saying " थेंबे थेंबे तळे साचे".... Every small drop saved forms an Ocean one day. My Financial advisor was my Father in Law.  My Finance Manager is my husband.  The difference between my mother's generation and mine is....we don't blindly just hand over our earnings and not ne bothered about Finance.  I read and understand the different savings and investment plans.Discuss with Milind and then he does the needful.  I am well aware of my Money. But my next generation is more smarter.  They make their own investments and manage their own Finances. Investment and Savings.... Investments help your money grow. Savings help you in Emmergency.  You must never put your apples in just one basket.... You must divide your money party in Savings....Partly in Investments.  Both are important to secure your future.  One need not be Tata,Birla or Am...

 I want my Freedom...... I am Bharati.... I am 77 yrs free from British Rule today.... Every one is celebrating my Freedom....my Independence today..... Am I really Free???? Am I really Independent of everyone and everything????? I was a Sita once....who suffered due to a Man's Ego and Power. I had to become a Kali to end the Tyranny and Violence of An Asura..... I was a Nirbhaya who became a victim of Lust and backward mindsets..... I became a Hapless Lady Doctor who got brutally assaulted and murdered when alone....... I don't want people to pray me.... I don't want your protection.... I don't want you to put me on a high pedestal...... I don't want you to treat me as an " Object" of Desire or Worship or Possession.  I want to be Me....an individual....my own entity....

 " Depression in Medical students ". " Sir,please give permission to go home.".... Biochemistry practical was going on. I went to my Biochemistry HOD who was sitting there in the Practical Hall.....and asked permission to leave. He signed ..... I left.He turned to my batchmate " Where is her home?" My bewildered batchmate replied " 16hrs train journey overnight." My HOD got shocked....... I had left home for further studies first time. Hostel life first time. Different place,tough climate,.....bad food,ragging period....... But more than all these problems....what used to trigger the sudden unexpected urge of running away was the adjustment to the tough curriculum of MBBS.  Recently, social media is a buzz with mental health, stress ,depression amongst Medical students.  Shocked to hear Medical students- Doctors who would be saving lives of millions tomorrow- we're taking a major step of ending their own lives- Committing Suicide....... What...
