So well said Riee. I am still struggling to find my words about celebrating women's day. I do appreciate the fact that we have to acknowledge women who have excelled in their fields against all odds, but it also makes me a little sad that we still need a day to acknowledge women. We still don't have that equality. I hope that changes in the coming generations. Yes, we get judged all the time by our extended families and sometimes friends too, for our life choices. You have echoed my thoughts on how there are so many expectations from women because they are women. Congratulations on writing this thoughtful article.
You kind soul, Sirisha. Thank you for reading this. There's a lot to be talked about on this subject but I ran out of time . We really shouldn't have to borrow a day to empower women.
Beautifully written Riee...And we really need to stop judging,start accepting & appreciating ......but I still feel that somewhere when we want to break the stereotype of getting judged by others...we really need to change ourselves first.....if we stop bothering...they will stop judging & eventually start accepting.I have noticed many women try to fit in other's perception of perfection.
Absolutely, Deepti. It's important that we change ourselves before we ask others to empower us. I never spoke about these niggles until now as I turned a deaf ear to all the judgemental talk but to what end? Thank you so much for reading this lovely!
