Lets see where to start! okie...I got prompted to start a blog by a very close friend-mentor. He said it will help me get my answers and realise and see what i cant see yet ! So...I thought why not give it a shot! and anyway I have too many things inside my head at this point so i think this will help me put down all the gibberish stuff in a proper way !
so, i call my blog "a new beginning" becasue i hope thats what i can achieve ! or maybe thats what i want to achieve! and my new begining starts with my re-using my maiden name or rather initial that i had let go off 6 years back ! i think i let go off my identity then! it feels good to have it back ! it was of course my choice then to take on my husbands name...and i did want to hold on to my maiden name and just add the married name! but the idea didnt go down very well with K (lets call my husband K here) ! for Peace's sake and to show how accomodating and comprimising i was...i agreed to his choice and let go off my maiden name !! now i look back and wonder what was i trying to prove?
so the question that i have at the moment is...is it bad to hold on to one's identity ? why does a marriage expect one to let go off a name that you have grown up with? why does it expect to take on a new name and a new identity ? does that mean we need to forget our "self" and completely give in to teh new life?
why do we let go off things so easily that might mean a lot to us? might be very precious to us?
