Who is Budhliben??
Budhliben is an old age lady who, was born in Navsari and was living her life with joy and a smile despite facing so many difficulties and pouring good manners into her daughters too. Her age was clearly visible on her face and all the tough days that she has gone through can be seen in her eyes.
She is a skinny woman but we must not go on her physique, as she is one of the mentally strongest people. Her husband died and left her due to some health issues and since then she managed everything on her own. Her name had a funny story and it was given by her parents.
Budhliben is generally dressed in a synthetic saree with an odd-coloured blouse in Gujarati style. She has a beautiful smile. Due to her age, she could not remember much of things but was also a soft-spoken person.
Where she lives…?
The house in which she lives is a small room where she has made the arrangements for all the basic facilities. The house was not that big but it was well constructed so that she wouldn’t face any difficulties in climatic conditions.
The house was small but it had the company of her daughter which made it a happy place. There were basic problems with water and space but she managed all of them with ease. Poverty leads to many challenges and shelter is the thing that usually gets most affected.
Family…
In the name of family, she had a very big one but no one is alive at the moment. Even her husband left her due to some serious disease. She had three daughters and with all her heart she got them married at their appropriate age but life turns miserable for her daughters.
And only one could lead a normal life. Life turned upside down when her married daughter starts living with her. The reason could be any. Due to a lack of awareness, they could not fight back. But society will get many reasons to utter nonsense about them.
But she is open poor but minded didn’t mind when her daughter came back and she welcomed them wholeheartedly without a single thought of what society would have to say.
Her Likes and Dislikes…
In her lifestyle somehow it was seen that she was a typical Gujarati woman. Her Sundays usually began with Khaman and Fafda. Apart from that, she eats homemade dishes and even gets food from the outside. With age, she doesn’t remember many things but she could answer them with a few memories.
She was a religious woman too and used to visit temples and does believe in goddesses and had faith in her. She has also visited a few temples in her youth in Gujarat. Budhliben was a fit and fine woman and was not taking any medicines. Apart from everything not having the company of her husband makes her a little upset at times. Both men and women can be affected by their partner’s separation, regardless of the reason for the same.
Message…
Somewhere, Budhliben finds herself; unlucky for not having any son but when she looks at her daughters she feels proud of them at the same time. All her desire for her son seems fulfilled as the daughters take care of their mother pretty well.
Despite having their own issues they never remained a burden on their mother, rather tried to make some money and supported her. Apart from this, she had nothing to say as her entire life has been spent solving all these messes in her life. Rest she use to stay calm and positive and overcome all her difficulties.
