I was young when I got married
I was young when I carried
Yet I managed both the roles fairly well
I was doing good in life skills
Good enough to teach..you agree?
But no..I don’t have a degree.
I learned the art of managing people
It was, as you all know, not that simple
I can now teach people life skills
But now..I don’t have a degree.
I handled my children at various stage
Infant, toddler, and now teenage
I can be a good child counselor now
But no..I don’t have a degree.
I have learnt to fake which I never knew
I have realized true friends are a few
I can now read people’s mind
Who’s cruel and who’s kind
I can be a good psychologist
But no..I don’t have a degree.
I can give tips on cooking
Give tips how to be pretty looking
But can I join somewhere?
No..I don’t have a degree.
Life is the best institute
Which has no other substitute
With the teachers being
Happiness, heartbreak, sorrow, betrayal
We all are Masters of Life
And yes that’s the best degree.
Doesn’t matter. The knowledge you have is your shield n sword ⚔️
But yes it’s sad that a woman’s identity is evaluated on her corporate job experience and her degree.
She has so much to offer. Loss of those who consider her less and ignore her potential.
It’s enough if she herself knows her true worth.
Very well-written.

Thanks for reading and appreciating Bhavna. People should look beyond degree and the money that a woman earns or doesn’t earn.
