Well, isn’t that the literal translation of my first name – Priya? As much as I would love to be everyone’s darling, I’m not. & I’ve no qualms about that… I’m 🙁, 👎🏼 & maybe even hated! Because I’m opinionated & principled. & that’s OK with me…
Another name for Priya would be ‘beloved’! I’ve no doubt that for my close-knit circle, I’m indeed their beloved. But beloved currently reminds me of the novel by the same name by Toni Morrison…
My being flinched every time I read about the horrors of slavery in mid – 1800s USA!
In everyday Hindi, my name would mean प्यारी. Now that sounds like I’m addressing a child… but aren’t we all children within, trying to adult in this mind-boggling world?
In Urdu, my name would be महबूबा! Ha ha. My mind is 💃🏻 to that eternal number from the movie Sholay… Till the next time, keep bopping!
