Inspiration theologically means anything that bears a special in�uence of divinity on the minds of human beings . My life , my struggles , the challenges I faced had the same impact on me , making me a better and stronger person . So I feel need to share this story with others as well . After having passed from a convent school ( Holy Child School ) and graduated in Economics from a reputed N o r t h C a m p u s c o l l e g e ( M i r a n d a H o u s e ) , I w a s awaiting what life had in store for me …. then I fell in love . After several hardships , giving up my studies & career , I got m a r r i e d t o h i m b u t m y matrimonial journey was tumultuous . . . . . . . I suffered a lot both physically , emotionally and mentally ……. This despite being educated ( since my husband had a terrible phobia f o r h i s f a t h e r ) . I n e v e r complained thinking that ours being a love marriage , it was my problem and I had to resolve it myself . My sor rows kept penting up and led me to suffer from BMD ( BIPOLAR MOOD DISORDER ) and suicidal tendencies . Then one day I put my foot down . I resorted to litigation . Thankfully my husband was by my side . This litigation went on for the next 14 years . To pressurize me to take my complaint back , several counter cases were �led by my in laws against me ….. but I was not deterred . Since 2000 , I have been on treatment for BMD , faced all cases boldly . The volley of challenges that I had to face made realize my latent potential and zestfully , I went a h e a d w i t h m u l t i f a r i o u s activities and won several accolades for my work in the �eld of education .
