Clutch on to your inner self, We will uplift your dreams.
Hey girl,
When you were in her womb, She was asked to pray for a lad, Your presence filled her life with joy, She pampered you to the horizon, But they condemned her, for your gender!
At every stage of your life, You were overlooked, You married, because they wanted you to, Your complexion mattered than the persona, Your confidence was called as vanity by them.
And after marriage, They wanted you to forget your parents, They asked you to change your identity. When you did not accord to them, When your career outshined home-making, They called you a failure!
When you fight the trauma of being barren, They complained about your frailness! Crushing the emotional pain, You embraced motherhood. Alas, they did not stop, They questioned your motherhood!!
Your dreams were burnt into ashes, Your identity drowned in your sorrows, Your gracious smile sank in your silence, You loaded the burden, They saw your fading happiness, Did they purport your life as fate? Or ignored your fading smile?
Who are they? SHE or HE? Ah, Both of them!!
When you wept, She was impassive, And he ignored!
When you spoke, She judged, And he disregarded!
When you settled, They took you for granted!!
It is not just YOU! There are many YOU, You yelled, You expressed, You silenced, But they remained unheard!
I fail to say sorry! Because you trembled to uphold your dreams!!!
Dear, “It is never too late”, Clutch on to your inner self, We will uplift your dreams, We will embrace the failures, We will mend the ripped pieces, And we will cherish the fulfilled moments, Of our beautiful life !!!
Your, well-wisher

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.
