She scoops to Conquer

She scoops to conquer, I argued with my hubby who was knitting his brows and kept on telling me it was "stoops not scoops". Anyhow I was the winner when he left the place helplessly.

This scooping started fascinating me eversince I noticed its important role in daily life. She is the efficient housewife who distributes small quantity of ice-cream among a fairly large number of kids by "scooping" it tactfully. She has to "scoop" out the indolence of her husband and make him active. If she doesn't, the husband keeps on reading the newspaper and has to rush to the office without a bath and breakfast. She has to know how to "scoop" out the extra pocket money of stingy husband's purse for her dear kids. She "scoops" the arithmetic of her expenditures namely sarees, lipsticks,sandals out of his brain and induces the mathematics of his extravagance namely cigarettes, coffee, cinema etc. She "scoops" out time to visit a beauty parlour during her busylike a bee routine. She scoops out the secret of togetherness of her in-laws by praising them and spreads the secret among the relatives.

There are many more scoopings. I haven't seen the middle-class housewife "stooping". Yet, she conquers. Doesn't she?

She - A woman

Image source: http://lilliemcferrin.com/five-sentence-fiction-isolated/ She began a new life with a family in the name of marriage. A family where women were considered men if they had given birth to a male child. She received the portent and tried to impress them but, the only way to impress them was to starve and become lame. "I was not born for this" she thought. She was isolated for the rest of her life for she was a woman. Jahnavi.K.J written for Lillie McFerrin's five sentence fiction .

Zodiac signs

Zodiac signs' dictionary meaning is: "an imaginary area of the sky containing the positions of the sun, the moon and the main planets, divided into 12 equal parts, named after 12 groups of stars. It is interesting to see how these stars effect the life of each individual living on Earth. This study of stars is an ancient science which rises curiosity in everyone. The study depends on the date of birth of the individual in the western countries and on the birth star in the Hindu astrology. The zodiac signs plays a vital role in match making and other aspects in Indian arranged marriage. Some people have strong beliefs in the forecast of these zodiac signs. However I do not believe in the predictions of the zodiac signs :) Jahnavi Participating in A to Z challenge
