On the auspicious occasion of #VaralakshmiVratham #VaralakshmiNonmbu, a shoutout for some Ladies of Twitter whom I regard very highly for various reasons. It has been a privilege to interact with them, which we do on a fairly regular basis.
One thing that is common is that they are nationalists, won't brook any nonsense, richly endowed with knowledge. They will follow a handle, if: content is good, is respectful, is fun to read without being sexist. Have a fab Friday!!

#SpeciallyAbledChild #Mentalhealth Writing this thread against the backdrop of a very tragic event where a dentist mom threw her specially abled child from the 4th floor and the child died. My sympathies to the entire family. We don't know what made her take that extreme step.
Let me share a life experience from the other end of the spectrum and it's a tribute to them. My father-in-law's cousin gave birth to a daughter, who on account of various reasons, was born where she needed help with her daily activities. She can't stand and her hands are bent.
Both the parents, especially the mother, took it as a challenge and treated the daughter as a normal one. From a small age, this girl could move only in a wheelchair. This girl also took on the challenge gamely. #optimism #positivity #Grateful

Life can be a series of hyperlinks for ordinary folks like me and we end up at a different point than what we intended!!!

One fine day, it all started with my best half wanting to do some Yoga. That led her going for the mat.
When she took out the mat, she discovered that the cover of the container, which housed the mat, is broken.
"Aji Sunte ho (she did not exactly call that but what the heck !!), should I throw out the cover?" came the question disturbing my somnambulist feelings.
"Yes dear", I responded, not wanting to show that I did not make head or tail of what she wanted.
"Come over here". And I obeyed her command and went to the room where she was.
"See, this cover is broken. Should I throw it?

Sharing a note of Rajeswari Ranganthan from FB. #Women
Women, Deepam and Agni.
Around 3-4 years ago, when I began guiding the young adults, elderly women to set up nitya puja, japa etc, i categorically mentioned women should light the Deepam.
Some people who barely had any idea about tradition used to ask me Why is it a women's job to light Agni and why not a man?
I (the author Rajeswari that is) had encountered similar questions even much before that
The reason is Women holds the Agni. It is their Adhikara. They alone have the right and hence it is their duty and responsibility to ensure Deepam is done at home.

Medical distinction between Guts and Balls

We've all heard about people having Guts or Balls. But do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, here are the definitions:
GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the Guts to ask: 'Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?'
BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the guys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the butt and having the Balls to say: 'You're next, Chubby.'

I hope this clears up any confusion on the definitions and differences. But....
