Women – The Epitome of Tenacity
Monday, September 16, 2019
In the labyrinth of life, without a shadow of doubt, today’s Indian society has undergone a sea of change as our Indian women have set a trajectory for themselves, they have proved to be tough competition for their male counterparts.
Gone are those days when women are expected to portray themselves as a meek and subtle creatures who are confined in the four walls of their household and restrict themselves to menial duties, on the contrary today’s women take pride in adorning their hands with bangles at the same time hold a gun to save their nation .
This colossal change has resulted in women spearheading commercial business, space missions and what not as India hustles toward the prospect of becoming a developed nation.
All we need to do now is to empower, encourage and envisage a future where no more will being an influential person remain to be a farfetched dream for any rural girl but rather a mere reality to which they can provide wings ….wings to fly high .
I would like to conclude with a short poem.
Like a mythical phoenix
She has risen from ashes and soared to a new plane of existence,
Unfettered by the things that once posed such resistance
Her senses now heightened, she sees everything so clearly
She hears the wind rustling through the trees beckoning her to live the dreams she holds so dearly ….. (an extract taken from an article written by Ms. Vice Mayor Felicia M. Brunson.)
I truly believe circumstances may not be propitious you may even cage her but her wings will grow one day and she will fly across the vast firmament. That’s the power of a female! A female who radiates an aura of positivity and exuberance all around her ……
