A glance in today's newspaper and you can read a lot about us .. I mean Women. It's the one day in every year dedicated to the weaker sex, or should I say the stronger sex ?! We no longer seem weak, to the newspapers at least. I am pausing and thinking for a moment. Have we really come out of our cocoons and turned into the beautiful butterfly? I don't think so. Maybe yes, there are more butterflies than earlier but still so many don't come out of their cocoons. I believe luck and fate still play a major role in a Woman's life. Mainly two things matter a lot in a girl's destiny :
1. The girl must have a strong will to make a difference to be more than the common girl.
2. She must be born and/or brought up under favorable circumstances.
If the girl doesn't have the wish to be different but chooses to marry, bear children, cook and wash and do all home chores without having a mind of her own who is there to stop her ?
How does she get the dream to become a successful pilot or singer or actress or badminton player or environmentalist ? She must have either got it from her family or outside influences such as Tv, books , friends etc ...
Hmmm .. It's just like a seedling .... depending on where it's fallen - on fertile soil or barren land - it's destiny lies.
Even education need not play a major role. There are girls who've done an applaudable PostGraduation course but end up as wives and mothers who have no say in the affairs of the home. That's really sad. Women should be confident to have a mind of their own , a dream of their own, without being negligent of the people who need her.
I hope that every girl gets the chance to become a beautiful butterfly in her life - loved and cherished by everyone.
