A Salute

i was a terrible kid, who grew up with 2 brothers. who always asked me not to behave like a girl. well that was tuff on me. a girl not to behave as a girl. i was the class bully consistently for the 12 years of my schooling. in college i maintained the reputation by enrolling in NCC and well beating up cadets. i was into worst of fights. in my masters days i ended up again being center of controversy cause i managed to convice my 40 classmates that we should boycott our seniors. well i heard the worst musik of my life for that. so with all this history i have gelled more with boys in my life then girls. they are more willing being partner in crime then girls. and well some most lovely ladies who where ever they are, for sure will stand out of the crowd as unique :-) this all retrospection is cause my dear friend asked me to pen down my opinion on men. well that is a really hard one. at least for me who tends to over look the lighter side of things. but, well let me try my hand on this. this is for you dear sam.

i might not have seen this most beautiful transformation of a person from a very strict parent to the most loving person on this earth who sheds tonnes of tears for me, my dad. my humble salute to him and all the dads.

the growing up pangs. it is a difficult world for guys to grow up, is what i understood on seeing my younger brother grow. a salute to all guys for facing this world like a man.

the family responsibility. the bread earner. a huge percentage of families are still patriarchal. i have seen my elder brother struggle to become one. a salute to all the young men, who took there dads responsibility on there shoulders.

the assuring hug. i have been blessed with the greatest friend who hugged me purely for the fact that i am hes depressed friend and not cause i am a girl. i'l owe you that thoughtful hug all my life. a salute for the king sized heart.

the puppy face that guys make to act cute, i know what is coming after that, but i still should be true and say that i love it whenever they make one.

the lavish attention i am bestowed on where ever i go, all the free meals i got when ever i travelled, courtesy fellow male travellers ;-) and a big sorry for lying about my cell number and whereabouts.
