In this world, sometimes you need to stand up for yourself, as you are enough for yourself and do not need a knight in shining armour.
Today I’m going to introduce yourself to you. You are the most beautiful creature of this entire world. So, take a deep breath and let’s start on this jolly ride.
It’s natural human tendency that whenever we feel lonely, stressed, confused; we just want someone to come and hold our hands and say “Honey, I’m there for you always. You will always find me beside you in your good as well bad times. Nothing is gonna happen to you sweetie. I’ll always take care of you and love you no matter what happens”. But when the reality comes , ‘Alas!’. You won’t find anyone for miles.
Where does the picture perfect guy vanish? What about the heart-full promises?
Do you know where the problem really lies? The problem is with you. Your expectation that someone will come on that white horse and will just carry you off, rescue you from all your troubles and problems and distress, and heal you with his never-ending love. All the melodrama starts here, right here, where you let your mind wander off to a distant romantic island, full of fantasies.
So, hey girl, just wake up and listen to your heartbeat. It’s still beating because of your own heart; not because of someone’s else. You are all alive by yourself. You are magic, my dear. You are a lovely miracle, whether you believe it or not. You are enough; just enough, to sustain this life on your own.
No one is gonna come and dispel your troubles with a magical wand and solve all your issues. You have to become your own savior. You have to stand up for yourself, honey. You are smart and beautiful enough. You are charming and gorgeous enough that hundreds of boys can fall down for your one smile. You are strong enough to take your own decisions. You are bold enough to venture into the wild by your own.
You are just enough, my friend.
So, next time, whenever you are down, stressed, just know this fact; you are the only one who can get yourself back on your toes; no one else. And in this journey of yours, I’ll always want you to grow more, achieve more and believe more on yourself.

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
It is shameful that in today's world too, women are abused and even killed for giving birth to a girl, and the infant's life is also of no value.
Trigger Warning: This deals with domestic violence, suicide, and violence against women, and may be triggering to survivors.
I am so glad that the esteemed courts are now giving the much-required verdicts regarding certain ideologies that were not at all entertained earlier. I mean we all have studied this much biology at our school level and it is our duty (our generation) to educate our elders about it.
Why someone have to lose a life to bring such awareness to the society. Delhi High Court gave this judgement concerning a case that filed by the deceased daughter’s parents against her in-laws. She committed suicide as she was harassed and tortured for dowry and giving birth to two daughters.
