At 24.....a girl

At 24,surprisingly the world for a girl-turning-women seems going up-side-down all of a sudden.From realising you are swiftly sliding away from teens and pacing ahead to 30's to racing up careers towards its' peak and a probable speed breaker-"marriage",It all clouds her darkly.At 24,when you hear your male counterparts,planning only their career rise and their future goals,roaming high head with their "GF's" (if they possess one),supporting their family and enjoying large with their gang,with pockets full and heart free,you see your own world shrinking.While groups expand for their friends getting married and new "mrs.friend" adding on,your group contracts before your eyes as your "miss.friend" going away.Even your pockets are full,your heart desiring freedom hardly things fall as you see and wish.You do everything they do,yet you don't do anything they do.One day you wake up to weird fine lines on your face so another day you don't understand your weight gain.To those rounds of phone calls that ring your house with same noisy question of when shall you get married to constant counselling or i should say "free counselling" that everyone no dies to provide you with as they care for you,as they would care for a guy once he is 27 or may be 28.People now look at you with questioning eyes and as if reading a tag on your forehead that reads "I AM SINGLE WANTING TO SETTLE DESPERATELY OHH PLEASE HELP ME OR I SHALL DROWN ".No matter the aspirations you sketch out in your mind and heart at this age,your "priorities" and world around you,plans it tight to slide it off your mind.Your shelf line began shorting and yes the never ending struggle enlarges to sustain your dreams.All this refers to a typical middle class girl with her own mind,dream and life, who now silently desires,wish she was a guy or may be years roll back,or just feel frustrated and prepare to struggle for "self" that she may win or may loose,but ultimately she realises .....her parents taught her as a child ....boys and girls are equal....but the reality is...."It's A MAN'S world"......
