This is not your size!
     Shopping can not be necessarily fun for us, especially when we are not looking for clothes in the right place. I absolutely hate shopping. It is tiring and sometimes even humiliating at the same time. I grew up with people who love to shop. My mom is an avid shopper. She can shop for hours with those extremely heavy shopping bags in both her hands.
My mom loved dressing me up when I was a little girl. Even then it was difficult for her to buy clothes for me. She used to purchase clothes for a 12-13 year old when I was not even 10. Yes, that’s how big I was even as a kid. But she never stopped. In fact, she became very creative and innovative. She has always been very fashion forward and made sure that her daughter was always best dressed.
As I have mentioned earlier shopping can be a very humiliating task if we are not looking for clothes in the right place. Trust me when I say this, I had never ever shopped for myself. All my clothes were bought by mom and grandmother. I got married three years ago and till date still it is my mother who shops for me.
A few years ago I went to Fashion street with my husband who was my boyfriend at the time. A little Gyaan here for non Mumbaikars: Fashion street is like a bunch of roadside shops near Azad Maidan In South Bombay, or SoBo as people like call it nowadays. (Yes, Bombay!! It’s been around 25 years since the official name of Bombay has been changed to Mumbai and it is still difficult to address the place as Mumbai at times) Anyway, coming back on topic.
My husband had earned a good amount of profit from one of his events and wanted to shop for his family and also for me. I was very much hesitant to go shopping with him as I knew what was going to come ahead. I pleaded him to shop only for his family and not for me, he eventually gave up and agreed.
We spent like 4-5 hours buying clothes for everyone and in the end a very annoying incident happened with me. I spotted a very beautiful Kurti and wanted to buy it for my mother. So I went to the shop and asked if the Kurti was available in XXL? The shopkeeper very jokingly, without giving a second thought just blurted out “Madam ye apko nahi ayega, apko XXL kam padega” (This will not fit you, XXL is a not your size). That hilarious statement of the shopkeeper ruined my wonderful day.
I was so annoyed and embarrassed at the same time. I mean how did he judge that I was asking for a XXL size for myself and not for someone else. Will I not know what will fit me and what will not!! I can still feel that anger in me while sharing this with you’ll. I have been in the same situation in malls as well. Where I was browsing the denim section with my mom for her and the sales executive present there asked me to go to a different aisle where “Plus Size” clothes were available.
Is it not rude for people to judge and pass statements without even thinking. I mean, why the hell will I spend my money on something that will not even fit me. And I just want to tell all the sales executives and shopkeepers out there, we might not always shop for ourselves, it’s a possibility that we are shopping for someone else. Trying to make someone's day special unlike you who do not even think before passing stupid statements. Next time please be polite and considerate enough to at least ask whom are we shopping for. Or rather just do what is asked by the customer.

Now I'm still a vegetarian working my way to become a vegan BUT many people such as fitness couches, MD's, and some scientist believe fatty foods give you atherosclerosis... fatty foods can cause multiple health issues but healthy fats give you many health benefits like avocados 🥑 😋 these many gifts from nature can be healthy internally but also externally such as a mask for healthy skin or to give life to your hair along with shine 💁🏻 meat is the number one food that the world eats that is cause plaque build up in your arteries which can lead to stroke or heart attack. We need to educate ourselves and future generation that we need to treat our bodies correctly by filling it with good nutrients and fats for energy and longevity. #believeinyourself #acceptoneanother #differentopinions #differentworld #healthyway #holistic #healthy #helpothers #livelonger #livebetter #looseweight #learnaboutfood #livediseasefree #ReformTheSystem #reversedieting #reversediabetes #reversedisease #PlantBased #vegetarian #Veganism #brainhealth #besmart #badfats #goodfats #goodfatsandprotein #arterieshealth #atherosclerosis

Time
You’ll never know the person
Even how long you’d been together
Even the longest time you’d known each other
It is only accepting one another that will make love last forever.

Told me once we fought too much for you to talk to me. That's why you went to them. Feel as though that could happen again, even though I'm wide open now for anything you need.

I hate when parents, aunts, grandma's, uncle's, etc call you fat. You're family, people hear that enough from the outside would. Don't nobody want to come home and hear that too, especially when you're supposed to be you're families support system....

OMG, Is the floor alright?
I am sure many of you must have had an embarrassing moment in your life. Like when you had a little accident and fell in front of a bunch of people, either in a public place or in front of people you know. Being a very clumsy person it has happened to me like a million times, both in front of like thousand people (not exaggerating here, there must be a thousand people as the incident happened on the walkover bridge of one of the most busiest railway station) and also in front of people I know. And the way people reacted in both the scenarios was not very pleasing.
The first incident I am about to share happened in Thane station. Those who are not familiar with Thane station, let me give you a little gyaan (knowledge) on the same. Thane city is in the state of Maharashtra. The main commute for people in Thane is the Railways. It is one of the most busiest railway stations and can get really very crowded during the peak hours. I was running a little late for work one day and decided to take the local train instead of the company transport to avoid heavy traffic. I was on platform number one when an announcement was made for the train I was hoping to board from platform number four.
If you are a non Mumbaikar or Thanekar let me tell you that people just run frantically to board their trains. Approximately 99% of the population whose daily commute is via railways have a fixed train to board everyday. If they miss that very train they board everyday they get very pissed and their schedule for the entire day gets delayed. I mean it’s an emotion you will not understand. You need to live that experience to understand it.
Anyway, as soon as I heard the announcement I started moving frantically towards platform number four from platform number one. And while I was just about to descend the last set of stairs, I somehow slipped and fell. Many passersby saw that happening and no one, literally no one came to help. People who were behind me were annoyed that they cannot reach the platform on time to board their train now. So a couple of comments that were clearly audible were “Jaadi ko khud ko sambhalne nahi hota toh kyu bhagi?” (If fatty can not handle herself the why should she run?) . A group of ladies laughed pretty hard and one them very much jokingly said “bhookmap aya dekh” (Feels like earthquake).
I was in pain physically as well as emotionally. I was hurt and also humiliated. I helped myself up, wiped my tears and sat on the bench for a while. I did reach office on time but my rest of the day was not very much as planned.
You know, I have seen many people help a person if they accidentally fell. I, myself have helped many people in such a situation. I wonder why no one came to help me and why instead of helping, people laughed. Was the scene really that funny, that people chose to enjoy and not help a person in need?
Okay, now please bare with me on one more situation of a similar kind. The above one was in front of several unknown people. Now have a look at what happened when the similar situation occurred in front of people I know.
As I have mentioned earlier that I am a very clumsy person and happen to find myself in embarrassing situation almost everyday. My classroom in college was on the fourth floor. My college gang was never very attentive in class and we bunked lectures quite often.
We had a free period and I was just chilling in my classroom with my best friend. Soon, a fellow class mate entered our classroom and announced that free period is replaced by Sociology. Please don’t judge or misunderstand but our Sociology professor was very boring. We never attended that lecture. So me and my best friend decided to escape before the professor arrived.
Very quickly we took our bags and we just ran. And as soon as we reached the second floor I fell down the stairs. My best friend did help me up but also jokingly asked “OMG, are you alright?” pointing the stairs. I did laugh with her but also felt bad at the same time. It has happened with me on various other occasions and my friends had a similar response. Some of them being : Arre hila diya na sabko, dekh kahi zameen mien hole toh nahi hua na?, news on kar ke dekho bhookamp china mein bhi aya hoga, tu gir mat re baba uthane ko bhi koi nahi ayega. And many similar ones.
Even though we may laugh along with you on your ‘innocent’ jokes, sometimes we might not be enjoying them. So please don’t do it all the time. At least be a little considerate and not crack those jokes in front of twenty other unknown people.
And NO! the floor will never get hurt because of us, there wont be an earthquake when we fall, nor will it affect any other country, and someday someone will be kind enough to give us a hand when in need. If one hand is not enough the person might give his other hand too and looking at his kind gesture other people might come to the rescue instead of enjoying the show.

Now I will say I am a very opinionated person BUT I would never put down someone else for what they believe 🙅🏻 sure I might agree with it or think it's foolish but who am I to put someone down? Now crystals are not going to cure cancer (#Veganism can 😊) but crystals can have some healing ability to a degree such as a mood calmer and a relaxer to stress. I don't know much about them but this much I have seen on some of my followers' pages. Don't be this guy who I follow who is a doctor and online fitness coach. This doctor did not make the picture but this is rude and very inappropriate for a doctor, of all professions, to post and comment the way he did. #vegetarian #Veganism #vegan #livebetter #livelonger #KnowledgeIsPower #dontbashpeople #dontbecloseminded #dontjudge #ReformTheSystem #science #doctorsdontknoweverything #holistic #healthyway #differentworld #differentopinions #acceptoneanother #believeinyourself
