On women’s day!

 

On women’s day!

Imagine a scenario – a girl is good in school and she tops in class. She works hard and earns her degree. She pursues education out of love for it and pursues her job with passion. She is successful in her career too!

And then bam! She gets married!!!

Overnight, her responsibilities become double. She manages both house and office. Both the parties taunt her for her slips. She is human after all! But, she is expected to be superhuman – why? Because she is woman who has dreams and desires!!!

And then, she becomes mother – now she is guilty and made to feel ‘as if she is bad mother’ for working! This on top of her working herself out day in and day out to please her company, house and family members. No one is pleased with her. She is drained – both physically and mentally. Emotionally she breaks down and she is called – bitter, arrogant, unapproachable, selfish, greedy and what not!
