its curious how a zygote multiplies and invents itself into something as exquisite as a baby over the 9 months in mother's womb... no questions asked.. no different opinions raised.. just pure existence.. wanted or unwanted, baby grows... 1 month of my labour room posting i saw and lent a hand in extracting this beacon of life from within mother's womb and gift it to its family..
family differs.. some are so overjoyed at the new arrival on earth.. warm welcomes are such merry occasions... :) i feel so happy for the baby who seems wanted.. but my heart wrings wen a baby is received with no applause.. perhaps the father didnt want a girl, or the in-laws didnt... the worse tragedy is wen the mother herself seems not to want the baby...
well i am not gonna plunge into social and ethical issues of unmarried pregnancies or teenage pregnancies or the various excuses ppl find to get rid of the baby... these are indeed issues of gr8 importance and surely a topic discussed and scrutinized too often. but wat do u or me actually do when we r confronted with a matter such as this is yet to be seen... for all that matters is wat we chose at the right moment.. finding fault with these women who i have seen in the past 2 months of gyn posting days i hav long given up.. they are not angels.. they are mere humans.. and in life they made choices.. with or without conviction. but they did chose smthing.. and its not so uncommon that somebody's right is someone else's wrong.. so i say, lets not judge others, esp women and wat they do with pregnancies...
i wish i could rush into bickering abt the bossy pgs and superior clinicians, but i guess this time i shall keep quiet.. basically i am amused how these ppl have bad mouthed already 10 times as much i had have wanted to abt them... it made me think.. the curse of being a woman doesnt end with pregnancy .. she is driven by passion, she gets too emotional too quickly, and she can be very unreasonable almost every time she quarrels.. and she loves to gossip, loves to tell the world how she is the victim and how everyone else victimised her...
i am no different.. for the past 6 months of my hs, i have done nothing but whine abt my pitiful self. i have done nothing to boldly question the conventions and give it my best shot.. perhaps the coming days would have pleasant surprises for me ..and i am learning now that afterall hs or pg or snior or patient or sister or lift man or attender.. everyone is a human being, a creation of god, and capable of doing good deeds.. and we dont do bad things coz we are evil.. we step out of the divine light once in a while, coz we r human.. and we step back right in, again coz its human to try and be better...
God works in mysterious ways.. :)
adios..
