I Am All Awed

While the world talks, and chatters, she goes ahead and does it. She did it before the Angelina Jolies of the world, even thought about it, she is possibly still the only high-profile single Indian woman to have ever done it, and now she just goes ahead and does it a second time. She adopter her second girl child daughter. Sushmita Sen, you may lover her or you may hate her, but no one can deny, the lady lives her life to the fullest. She does what she wants to do, caring two hoots about what the rest of the world has to say. Just wanted to record my vote of admiration and appreciation here, on going ahead and doing what her heart tells her to.

saw this in the papers a few days back n what made me happier was that it was a girl child again. i wish people would adopt girls than boys, , but i shouldnt really complain i think cos adoption itself is a huge thing to do, regardless of gender.

Mamma mia! Me a mamma? said...

It's wonderful of course, but when I read in the papers that she filed a case in the court to be allowed to adopt another girl and decided to wait for as long as it took, rather than adopt a boy...I have to say, it distressed me quite a bit. You've got a beautiful little girl...would it have been so horrible to have a little boy to love as well?

Momo's ma - I admire the act of adoption in itself, because though i did not think it was a big deal earlier, having heard many points of view of late, i realise, there are many many people who find it completely unnatural!

M4 - Oh! is it? I did not know this. Its pseudo-elitist, to love baby-girls. Quite the trend now. It just means there is a sway in gender bias, does not mean it has ended, sheesh!

Hey thanks for sharing 'my" views... people like her not only awe me but somewhere also give me the hope that I am not walking on a dangerous path after all... that maybe what I am seeking to do is not an impossible feat and that I too shall emerge out to be a winner... :)
