WHAT WOULD I DO IF I WERE A SUPER WOMAN?



Blogging was a suggestion from one of my friends. He thought it would be a suitable way for me to occupy myself now that I had quit my job. And so when I told him that I did start blogging, he asked me if he could read them; and when I told him that they were all sad blogs, he suggested that I should write one on what I would do if I were a superwoman.
So I want to give his thought a try. When I think of a superwoman, the image that comes to my mind is of Nicole Kidman in ‘Bewitched’. One who could do anything and do it all, and still chose to be a ‘human in the mortal world’. I do not have any fancy ideas about making the world a perfect place. Though, I would be happy if I could ease somebody’s pain, I don’t see myself as playing God. I was always the one who believed that without villains there would be no hero and without sorrow there would be no joy. Again, even when I say this…I have many-a-times wondered who decides that one child be born in the lap of luxury while other suffers unbearable pain.
But anyways, coming back to the point of what would I do if I were one of the Charmed Witches Well, let’s see…I think I would have liked it, I would bake the most perfect cookies…make the most wonderful meal…and I think I would have been a pastry chef. I would have liked having my own cake shop….where every kid would want to go, where every bride would want to get her cake from. Did I mention that I just love weddings? I find it so amazing when one finds true love…I think that’s the best feeling in the world. I would want to be my husband’s best friend, his soul mate, I would want to have a healthy happy kid, and all my life I would always be there for my kids…always available whenever they need me…would never want to say, “I’m busy now can I call you later”. I would want to be able to attend everything that matters to them. And I plan on having a lot of kids, so yeah…I would need superpowers :-) I would want all this and much more…but most of all, if I were a Superwoman, I would never want a single mean or hurtful sentence to come out of my mouth.
I think if I let my friend read this he would be so disappointed, he would have expected me to build the fastest car, travel to moon, and see all places – the highest mountains and the depths of seas. But I guess at this moment going to Machu-Picchu (that’s my dream destination) doesn’t seem that very important. But what the heck let me add that to my list. I would want Ashok to take me to Machu-Picchu.
