Living life alone, having no one beside you-
To face life’s dangers and still be brave to recover….
Some of us are oblivious to what happens in our country on a regular basis;
Not just in one city or two, but all over the country.
Women face problems in all parts of the country and this is not even based on the fact that one is richer or poorer than the other.
Eve teasing is faced by almost every woman in the country.
Mockery is faced by every woman in some form or the other.
It’s a sad fact that most of the women in our country are looked at with eyes of disdain and contempt, and the government is doing little about it!
From leering to ogling, glaring to whistling women face mockery in some form or the other.
A woman cannot walk safely down a lane in today’s time without having a man turn his head around;
or whistle, stare or pass a comment.
Women have been facing this issue for more than decades.
Yet, as our society progresses with new developments and gadgets people are becoming more and more selfish and think more of themselves.
When can women feel honored as human beings for being just themselves?
Is it only when they get married or when they attain an important job?
Do women own a place in society or do they have to earn it?
How many incidents occur when the man is the victim to some abuse?
Never!
It’s always the woman who is subject to abuse and maltreatment in some manner of the other.
Many people ignore this issue.
It has just become a norm that man is born with Respect and the woman has to earn her own…
Living in a society requires abiding by some norms, having some form of duties towards the society.
If tables were turned around and one of us woke up in a disastrous state, left alone with no one to turn to or learn from, who would be there to help you then? Is getting married or being sheltered under a father’s roof or attaining a job the only way woman can find their journey home to happiness or are there other ways? The society has changed remarkably and women demand more rights in today’s generation, but this journey “home” or to respect is yet to be found.

The journey is of the mind. Equality is a state of mind.
