Women's Day

While having breakfast at Doctor's Tea Room  I happen to see  in some television channel glamorous celebrations  of the Womens' Day.A bridal show is going on and numerous beauties in various breathtakingly elegant dresses are floating around the stage bestowing enchanting smiles to the audience.A fellow doctor who was there before me inform that this bridal show was preceded by a cookery show or something where a male chef demonstrated  how to prepare some wonderful western dish.
............................................................................................................................................................
Around 11 am as I am walking along the corridor, I am lucky to catch another glimpse of the celebrations. This time a lady is demonstrating how to dress yourself in a Kimono or something like the favorite Princess of a certain Korian drama.No doubt that this would be really useful to our ladies  who  worship the actress in question and will no doubt follow her path and bring justice and peace to this land.
...................................................................................................................................................................Later on I am writing some reports at my work place when one of my nurses beckon me to come out qucikly .A little girl of around six to seven years is  seated on a bench where patients usually  sit.On her lap is her sister or brother whom she is feeding some liquid  through a feeding bottle.Her legs barely touch the floor and she is fascinated by her surroundings that she forgets at time to position the teet of the bottle properly.
             Some minutes pass, and their mother who appears to be a bit mentally subnormal appears there.When confronted by my nurse about the leaving the kids there, she meekly blurts that she went to the clinic to get her medicine, grabs the two kids and hurry away like a frightened deer.A woman  who is sick and needs care, left with two more kids. What will  that small girl's fate be, I wonder .Will she be  a beautiful bride,a jewel of the Palace, or will I see her kid one day, on the same bench on another Womens' day? Happy Women's Day Folks!
