Marriages can wait !

Girls are not allowed to study in economically poor families and in some  rural areas. They think that girls are born just to get married and is a source of extension for their families. Parents of girls believe that if a girl is  married at young age, then the dowry will be less and so the burden. 

Girls are always considered as burden by their parents and they get least priority in everything they do. They are not allowed to go to school because their parents can't afford fees of three children. They can't eat their favourite food because they are girls. They are not allowed to talk loud in public because they are girls. In fact they are not allowed to do anything which their brothers do. At the age of playing with other children, most of the girls are sent away by their parents in the name of marriage. 

When a girl is married at early age, her life changes completely forever. At the age of holding books, she becomes an expert in making Roti's for her extended in-laws family. At the age of playing with her friends, she is trained by her mother and mother-in-law about cooking, cleaning dishes, and how to keep her voice low even if her husband raises his hand on her, because they are doing the same thing even after decades of their marriage.





Then the Girl's parents and in-laws assume that a girl's life will be fulfilled only if she gives birth to a child. When girls give birth to their children without having proper knowledge about their body and the world, some even die in the process of giving birth because their body doesn’t have strength to bear a child. If  they succeed, and by chance if that is a girl child, then her story is same just like her mother. 

I believe that Education is important for every girl, marriages can wait, because education alone can change our story !

The silent Truth !

Some people in our society are still giving least priority to women. There is no world without women, but we have never been treated equally by our own people. There is a myth among people since centuries that women depend on someone or other always. First on fathers and brothers, then on Husbands, at last they depend on sons and daughters when they grew old. But i don't agree to that, there is a life for a woman before becoming a wife, before becoming a mother. In fact there's a world even after becoming wife and mother. There are many who became successful even after marriage, and even after becoming mothers. A woman can be independent only when she is given enough freedom and encouragement by the man in her life. We women transform ourselves into any role easily. Our parents decides everything for us right from our childhood. We change our world for some unknown person when we get married to him. We lose our body shape when we give birth to our children by going through so m...

Having Everything and Having Nothing !

2020 has been a roller coaster journey so far, everything became still for a few months. It must be the first time in History where whole country was shut down. People stayed at their homes though they didn't like it. Many people lost their jobs, many lost their lives, many lost their livelihood, while many kids lost their school. Some prayed because they have everything, some yelled because they are not satisfied with what they have. Some remained silent though they don't have anything. Yes, there are some people who never complain about anything. They suffer whenever major change happens. But they don't know whom to question ? they don't know whom to accuse? they don't know what is happening around ? Though they are the most affected ones whenever there are any major reforms in the country, they always stand in Queue for money, food supplies and medical treatment. Many of them spent sleepless nights and workless days. Life has changed suddenly into something whic...

Street shopping !

For this Christmas I wanted to do something different, something meaningful. So I decided to buy accessories at small shops for the festival. Due to pandemic small businesses suffered a lot. For months nobody stepped out and their business was very dull. So i decided to buy the things from them instead of going to big malls. So there is a nearby place where we have a street shopping area which is spread across 2 to 3 kms. I have heard about it from friends but never visited. So I took a chance and went there to buy some things. I was beginning to feel good as i didn't step out from the house since months. It was like totally cut off with the outside world. It was just me and my work battling together behind the closed doors. So this shopping time gave me a chance to be among people once again. So i have started shopping from the first shop and explored every shop in that area until I'm tired. I actually went there to buy black metal accessories which I'm planning to wear fo...
