When Chudails come to the rescue…..
When you are a mother of 2 young kids with an age gap of 2 yrs, your life is not termed as life. It is a ride with more bumps than a than a roller coaster. A job, a house to maintain and kids make you feel like standing on a cliff, a little negligence and everything will crash. Motherhood comes with its challenges. I do whatever possible for my kids but I miss being myself. I do feel bad about it but at the same time I do feel that I am a person first then a mother and if I am not happy how can I make my kids happy. Everyone have a point of view that its just a few years and after that you can enjoy your life. It makes me think, I will turn 40 in those few years and what will I do then. My kids will grow, they will be in the stage where I have to worry about their studies and their extra curricular activities. Their growing up stage will require more attention than they need now.
Thinking about the ups and downs of my life, I surf the internet to divert my mind. I try to find new things for my kids, new ideas to be a better person and manage things more efficiently, look for new recipes for kids so that they eat something. During my one such venture on Facebook, I came across a mother’s group. Quara type of Facebook group where you can ask questions about anything related to motherhood. Seek advice on any topic. It was good for a while but then again I started to feel bad as a mom as mothers there were actually like mother India type or just showed off God knows (sigh). I was about to leave and then a bumped into a few females who were more or less like me. We shared a common interest, love of ready supernatural stories. All of us were big fans of the genre. Though I am a weak hearted person but I love reading the stuff. We formed a Whatsapp group to share more stories and experiences. The name of the group was Chudails (now we have changed it though). They were the kind of friends I was missing in my lifr. All have more or less same crazy streak like me. They are fun to be with. There were flawed and excepted it. They will give you the their unbiased opinion. They will tell you what they think is right. On judging, no rude words just good advice.
Sometimes all you need is just a friend witj whom you can share your feelings, vent out your anger, display the emotions you cannot express to others. You need a person to lift up your morals when your are going through a tough time in your life. I was also going through such a tough time with all time low self esteem when my Chudails came and rescued me. Though I haven’t met them and I am not sure when I will be able to meet them all but I surely feel that I have a support system witj me. I guess it is the essence of true friendship that distance doesn’t matter, what matters is how you are connected at heart. People say thank God, but here i can only say…. Thank you Chudails. Love ya all.
