 “Freedom cannot be achieved unless women have been emancipated from all kinds of oppression “. A famous quote by the former president of South Africa.

This is not a simple topic. It needs much more attention.

Does everyone live in an independent country? 

Do we have freedom ?


Women are still waiting for a day to get freedom. They are always seen in the eyes that they are only meant to do all the household chores, cooking, cleaning, taking care of their family and so on.

Is it true? Are women meant for only that?

There is no use in talking that we all are living in the 21st century, everyone’s attitude is the same. Some people are not ready to accept the growth of women. From birth to death women are going through big pressures and sadness. The rules are not fully implemented in our society to help the women. There are parents who go for gender reveal test and do abortions when they came to know that the baby is a girl. The parents find the girl children as a liability. This happens not only among uneducated and unemployed people. It is common among everyone regardless of class. Girl children are not given equal education and opportunities as their brothers or other boys. 


In today's world a lot of improvements are made. In almost every sector of job we can see women. They are coming forward to compete with the boys. Also the governments of various countries are coming up with laws to improve the skill of girls. Women are given reservation in colleges and companies.

 

The boys are not coming forward to care for girls. Some try to torture them physically and mentally. There are many cases reporting such crimes daily in newspapers. 

Some consider marriage only as a business. They don’t give much value to it. They only concentrate on dowry. Even if they get good amount of dowery they still wish to get more and  torture the women. The biggest example of this is what happened in Kerala a year back. A girl named Vismaya was badly harassed and made to do suicide by her husband demanding more dowery.


There are many women who face serious rape cases and acid attacks. Their life is getting spoiled by these kinds of women. We should know about the girl called Laxmi Agarwal. She was from Delhi and faced acid attack at the age of 15. She is now a campaigner for acid attack victims and a tv host.  


Society sees women as inferior only. That mindset should be changed first. Everyone is equal whether it is a boy or a girl. They should be treated equally with equal opportunities and education. We have only one life. Be united in that life. All the best and keep moving. Enjoy your life. Have a blessed, united, happy and inspiring day.

Turning Pain into Power !

  The word friendship seems to be too simple but it is having incredible powers than you think. It can give you joy, lots of memories that always hold over hearts and in the same way it teaches you really tough lessons of betrayal and mistreatment. Like many others reading this, I too had experienced both good and bad friendships, this really changed me but ultimately made me stronger only. I believe that we should experience the bad friendships first and then enjoy the really good life waiting for us. Bad friendships are sometimes a blessing in disguise. It will teach us resilience and make us powerful to withstand anything. But not everyone will be so lucky to overcome the emotional scars that happen through bullying or ragging. The tragic story of Ammu, a young nursing student from Kerala is a heartbreaking reminder of this. She ended her life leaving two words behind “I quit”. Ammu’s life was full of promises and I believe she had a beautiful life filled with happiness and wond...

Unstoppable power of challenges.

 W hile walking through the busy streets, I came to notice a poignant scene. A young woman in her 30’s sitting on the footpath and crafting rose bouquets. Beside her a tiny boy - mostly her son, who took the role of a tiny salesman. The boy approached the people walking by requesting them to buy the flowers. The little innocent face caught their attention, so most of them bought flowers. I joined them as well. This might seem like an ordinary scene in a busy city. But taking a moment and thinking of the scene will help us understand many things. In that moment I realized that the boy was not just selling flowers but in fact he was actually cultivating hard work and resilience in him. I am sure that he can face anything in life since he was trained to overcome challenges in this very young age. While many of us have grown in our comfort zone, it will be very difficult when life throws us into a big pit. The more we face problems in our younger age the more we will be able to face ...

Stop Comparing : Start Succeeding !

  Hellooo Everyone! Today, I want to take you back to your school days. Were you a front bencher or back bencher? You know society often considers the front benchers as the toppers and the backbenchers as the losers. Well I believe in what our former president, Abdul Kalam said, “The best brains of the nation may be found on the last benches of the classroom”. From the experiences and stories that I have heard, I came to know that the front benchers may know how to top the class but the back  benchers often have a  deeper understanding of how to be the real topper of life. And then there is that middle group, like me 😉,  the ones that don’t fit in either category. We often find ourselves stuck in the middle trying to succeed both in life and class, chasing for the ideas to be a topper. I guess I am deviating away from the main point I wanted to share with you. Let’s get back to those old school memories. Life was so simple back then, wasn’t it? The only worries were...
