Shades of a Woman..



Every person around us is different. Different in the way they appear. Different in the way they dress. Different in the way they talk, how they walk. Just Different.

Speaking about being different, I believe, what sets everyone apart is their mindset. A mindset that determines their appearance, their dress sense, the people they hang out with, their speech, their experiences, their thinking and everything about them. While some are open to changing or modifying their mindsets, others completely confine themselves.

In all these years, all the people I've come across, each of them is different from the other. No similarity whatsoever. Some are conservative, some liberal, some bored, some cute, some shy, some annoyed, some happy, some upset. All kinds. Few may speak the same language, have similar traits, eat the same kind of food, live in the same house, yet stark different from the other.

To begin with, each and every male person has a different opinion on the same topic. To elaborate, every boy or man has his own theory/funda about girls, alcohol, sports (especially cricket), business and cars. Their opinions on these topics are always different from eachother. In their minds they may agree to one another but the ego forbids them from giving in.

And now come the women. They all say that a woman is God’s most complex creation. No man would ever fully understand a woman. Well, the best things in the world are not meant to be understood but only experienced. ;) Women indeed are complex. But they are not really different. They all come in varying shades. Shades that range from being the most sorted to the most complex.

I recently attended a family function. While the occasion saw only a handful of men in attendance, the chaos of the women remains unforgettable. From a ten year old to a sixty year old, the range was extensive.

Every woman had similar traits and thought process. They all discussed food, families, friends, foes and each other. Yet they all were different. Well, not stark different, but as I said, the shades were evident. While one loved sarees, the other doted on salwar kameez. While one insisted on taking a zillion profile photographs, the other was busy profiling fellow female guests at the do. While one took hours to get dressed the other got dressed in no time to hog the early limelight.

While one was busy 'checking out' the guys at the event another was 'checking on' her guy. While one constantly fidgeted with her hair, the other let it all down sinking in her phone beneath. 

They may be at loggerheads with their spouses, yet are offended when someone says something against them. They may like someone's outfit but will take the ego way and compliment the worst dressed. They may love the food and even parcel some extra but would call it names anyway. They may thoroughly enjoy the party but still there would be that something that was amiss. 

They may all appear to be the same but indeed possess those different shades. Shades that nobody can truly decipher yet recognize.

Complex..?? Naaahh.. ;)
