Essence

"Drink milk with kesar and haldi"
"Mix lemon juice, gram flour and fresh cream, apply that daily"
"why don't you try Fair and Lovely?"
"Bleach? give it a shot"
Some advised,

"You keep wandering all day...out in the sun, what else will happen?"
"Don't buy that red shade yaa...honestly, girls like you should steer clear of red lipsticks, "
"wear lighter colours, you know. They will suit you better."
Some criticized.

"Well, I don't mind dusky complexion"
"She is dark but pretty"
some complemented, but not without the special mention of her complexion.

"It's going to be pain to find a match for her"
"why you had to 'take' your father's colour."
sometimes even her folks commented.

But she always dealt with all those comments, criticisms and advises very gracefully, rather with a pleasant smile on her face.
The Smile of satisfaction,
Satisfaction of fusing... with a soul of Radha,
The soul which found the essence of Krishna...in her colour!!!
