"பெண்ணாய்ப் பிறப்பதற்கு மா பாவம் செய்திருக்க வேன்டும்"
Whenever I heard someone say that, I never argued with them. I knew why many women would say that. I never analyzed to see what it meant to me.
However, today I'm so very happy and consider this life to be the best boon I could ever get. A dog, cat, tree, stone or any other thing in this existence may not be able to see life the way a human being can see it.
2 weeks back, when I was on top of the Camelback mountains, the heavy wind that was sweeping me away was so refreshing. After such a hike, it was weird to feel so energetic, thanks to the wind. I stood on the summit and looked down at the city of Phoenix basking in the early morning sun. I always loved to watch the sun slowly light up the city, as it rises over the mountains. This wonderful sight, the feeling of the wind on my skin, the whooshing sound in my ears, the smell of the early morning fresh air and the awareness of all this - do I want to be anything else or anyone else at this moment? NO, NEVER.
Last week, on a full moon night, I was sitting with my husband in our patio. The moon was so white and bright and my whole being felt like it was washed by the moonlight. Just looking at the moon, relishing its beauty and all that it had to offer, blew me away. Where was I and what did I do all these years? I kicked myself for missing hundreds of full moon nights in my life. If I were anything other than a human being, would I have enjoyed these? I really doubt it. So will I exchange this life with any other life - NO, NEVER
