If you are a woman, you may have been part of some or other event
organized on the occasion on International Women’s Day. As a participant, you
may have felt proud, encouraged, inspired, and acknowledged. I will say just don’t
let your womanhood spirit die, within next few days. You are very privileged
that you get the forums to get inspired.
The other day, I was thinking, do I really need this kind of Days,
Events, Forums to feel proud about my womanhood. Answer is big NOO. These may be just soft
reminders.
We have grown up in a society, where we all worship Goddess LAKSHMI,
SARASWATI AND KALI. We are the only one who can give birth to next generation. I
can keep adding the attributes of womanhood. But we all are aware and
understand the importance of the same. Still underestimate ourselves…..
Today’s scenario may have made us feel helpless, annoyed and little bit
scary about our womanhood. But believe me; it won’t change unless we as women
do some things. Making few laws, reservations and ample sympathy, will do
nothing good for us. I want to share few points with you, which I believe, will
surely help all of us:
- Have faith in yourself, you can do any
impossible thing in the world
- Make yourself strong, mentally and as
well as physically.
- Be careful while choosing person to
relay on. Don’t blindly have faith on anybody.
- Am confident that you are inculcating
a true sanskars/values in your child, but don’t forget to tell him that
both the genders are equal, nobody is superior or inferior. Respect the
other gender.
- Being a well educated and having a supportive
family, you are the most privileged. Don’t waste your this status quo,
utilise it for other unprivileged women in our surroundings. Support them
to come up by helping them in any means like knowledge sharing, mental
support, economically if possible, guiding them.
- Don’t keep any jealousy; they say
‘Most of the wars happened/happen in the world because of women and their
jealousy’. Though I don’t believe it completely, still I will say be
compassionate for each other.
- Have zero tolerance for domestic
abuse. Remember the person tolerating injustice is at bigger fault.
- Always be well equipped. Carry most
powerful weapons like knife, chili powder, even dust on the road can help
you.
- Be careful while travelling at night, I
will not say, don’t travel at night. But take calculative risk.
- Don’t neglect eve teasing on roads,
harassment at workplaces. Take precautionary steps.
- Be alert, let your presence of mind
keep working all the time J
- I can go on and on, adding the points
to list, but most import is that have faith in you and be strong. You are not less than superior.
Unless you don’t feel it within, unless you don’t believe it, nothing
will change. So feel beauty within you, Celebrate the every moment of
womanhood, Spread your happiness, Feel the strength within and Enjoy a bit of you……..
Because we all are unique, nobody can be like us.
