When you fall between the age category of 25-30, the mandatory question that comes to your basket would be, “When are you getting married?” and if you are married, “Why are you still not having kids?”. Such questions are usually thrown from so called relatives when you meet them on any occasion. Some might really want to see you getting married, have a family and stay happy. Those might be portrayal of true affection and care. But there are some people that are too much interested to poke their nose and annoy you with list of questions. When you face them for the first time, it becomes a matter of fact, and you are bothered to comfort them with responsible answers. But as and when the same question pops up every time, you get used to and bored. Instead of trying to explain them, you become silent. This is a usual story which is faced by many at some point of time, and we say, “These relatives are jobless and just ignore them”.
But what if people who are matured enough and people who know you well pokes you with same questions. In recent times, it has become a topic of discussion amongst everyone with whom you are associated with. Again, it’s absolutely fine to enquire and question you anything out of true concern and care. People keep discussing about this wherever you go, be it when there is a group of friends or any random neighbor with whom you don’t even talk much. In such cases, you are prone to explain others the reason behind your decision or whatever you have in mind which is completely unnecessary. And there is a myth that life becomes complete when you have a career, buy a house, get married and have children. So, if anything gets delayed or skipped in this list, it becomes a crime, and you are surrounded by a sphere of mental pressure.
Some might do not want to get married at all. Some might have an idea of having kids at later point of time. Some wanted to postpone buying house because of financial issues. Some would wish to go for long trips while some wanted to accomplish everything in their bucket list. Some don’t want to expose their personal life to anyone. Some wanted to stay away from crowd while some are interested to eat a lot. It depends on the need and wish of an individual. At this point, I suppose the word, “CHOICE” seem to be missing. It’s the choice of the individual to decide the path of life and let everyone live their life. Definitely not a “My life, my rules” attitude.
Life is a journey, not a race.
