woman life ?????????????????????!!! 

Freedom !!!!! A single simple word may not have the same impact for all ...that too if it is for a feminist of India , it’s meaning changes to down the hill… Women should remain at home, sit still, keep house and bear and bring up children.” Yes that was almost six centuries ago , but I am sure that there must be millions of men in India and the world who would agree with these words now in this 21th century too.. . I happened to read something in a newspaper the other day, it is the kind of story one sees in films n in drama’s
She completed her education got placed in ISRO as Trainee engineer..she was too talented n got banks of knowledge..soon she was was recognized as best employee of the month…On a occasion when she was awarded
Boss:Do you want to be “business woman” in future or want to be “babies mother”
She: I want to be business woman with baby mother too.
Life is running too fast for her ..she was enjoying her official and personal life too with her countable friends...at home hunting for groom started..and the day came when the hunting process came to end…
Not surprisingly, she has to leave her current job before marriage as the guy from other place rather then were she was located currently!..
Wedding preparation was going in peek n the day came..wedding was over,,Packing for the move to the new place started n atlast reached to new location where her hubby was located..she accompanied him leaving her 24 years life aside at her home town..
Her hubby was good to her..he used to take care of her well n love her too much..n too much possessive about her…for him the world is only they both..others don’t have any value there in their world… but still following the old traditional things that the gal shud not go out of home alone ..shud always accompanied by him if going out ..shud be homemaker rather then working woman... Time passed she started to feel suffocated sitting idle in home and feels her literary talent is being strangled.
Time was running she was forced for being a homemaker. Husband, children, cooking , cleaning and sewing take up all her time. Her talent goes cold like a dormant volcano.
Nothing new in this story. One might have heard the words said by some one “One is not born a woman, one becomes one” so often that it has lost its impact, but then we are reminded of these words when a case like above suddenly stares us in the face. Almost all Indian families have their lakshmi,sita,sonia,stella,mumtaz..yeah only name vaires. And ‘thanks’ to science & technology, the sonography machine and the strong urge to have a son, millions of womans have been deprived of their very lives. And the tragedy is that most of us, do not even feel anything is amiss even though we see it happening everyday in our own families. Whether it is our refusal to accept women chant the Vedas or wield the pen we continue to show our intolerant selves in all its ugliness This is in most cases in an Indian family....after reading such things in paper n watching in movies n episodes
..i often feel If a gal goes to work is that disrespect of ‘traditional values’?
There are too many Q’s ??????????????????????????????? which can only be answered by time..so let me wait n see what time tells……………….
