No one notices it when you do it, but everybody notices it when you don’t. Household chores fall into this category.
I’m the go-to person to supervise the maids at home or ensure we don’t run out of groceries, etc. I laugh at the fact that I am expected to do all this.
Oh boy! I am supposed to be doing this, and over time, become an expert at this so that I can counsel others on it. Bad idea!
As this super girl, was a girl with little dreams, and has now hopefully grown into a woman with a vision!
So #AbLaughNaari, even if you can’t do what you are supposed to do, you are made for better and bigger challenges. Keep the super girl in you alive.
