Default The greatest profession

When I grow up
I had wanted to be a doctor
I also wanted to be a chef or a designer
Then for sometime...
I wanted to be a counsellor

Though I didnt specialise to be any of these
Now as a grown up I'm all of these
You see, I'm a HOUSEWIFE

When I attend to my sick child, I'm a doctor
I'm a chef when I turn out aromatic recipes
When I beautify my house, I'm a designer
And a counsellor when family seeks my advice

I don all these roles from morning to night
So wont you agree with me
When I say
That being a HOUSEWIFE
Is the greatest profession of them all?

-Sathya Venkatesh

Dear Sathya,

This is a booster for all housewives, who think that just being a housewife makes her any less competitive to other career women.

An i hope the male fraternity read it too.

Warm regards
Roopa.

Dear Bhargavi,
Thanks a ton. Things will change slightly once we proudly say "I'm a housewife" instead of "I'm just a housewife" as many people say.
