Happy birthday to your mum Ma& #39;am. But as a 26 years old whining here I would like to list reasons we are not as courageous rn. We don& #39;t know if our jobs are secure and for how long. A lot of us are here from small towns/villages, and live on rent. Inability to make rent means https://twitter.com/kavitharao/status/1278899477772787712">https://twitter.com/kavithara...
Going back home, which for a lot of us means end. We don& #39;t have much of savings due to the price of living in metro cities, and the peanuts we usually are paid. We have no property in metro cities/ any cities in our name. Our parents are getting older, are getting new ailments.
We are living away from them, some of us don& #39;t live in places reachable by a 2 hrs flight. We have to think of their well being, we are dealing with pressure of marriage, having kids, convincing families about our choices of partners. We are dealing with our physical ailments
And mental illnesses. We are sending our parents to therapy, we are trying to change their mindset filled with casteism, islamophobia, queerphobia, we are trying to come out of closet to them. We are helping each other deal with abusive partners, abusive households, with the
Miniscule resources we have.
We can only hope to live till 75 and be half as energetic and passionate as your mum because we aren& #39;t sure if we would make it till then. I am sure she had her struggles too, and probably she also spoke about them when she was 26, but Twitter
