We are all brought up in a society that categorizes us in boxes. Those boxes and their boundaries are glorified and put on a pedestal. We aspire to fit into these boxes.

Slowly but surely the box starts to feel claustrophobic and restrictive. We peep outside the box in amusement. The amusement grows into wonder. We set a toe outside only to be reprimanded. But the air of freedom is addictive.

We have two choices then: 1. Go back into the box. 2. Step out, make mistakes, learn and grow.

Option 2, needs us to stop giving a fck. The glorification is manipulation. The backslash is society’s insecurities.

Oops!!! We are learning to smash the patriarchy: internalized and external. Get out of the way.
