Moving from ma parent’s shadow it’s a slow realization that the world around is full of biases ,prejudices and injustice. The only thing that can be done to survive the tide is to :SPEAK OUT. Never should ones voices and opinions be sidelined, be it in the family or society .Make yourself clear ,let the world stand back and listen. Never take a NO for what you believe is your right .After all your right is what matters.
The generation ME is more vocal in expressing ideas for themselves and others to think over .But, we wither badly under stress putting to question the abilities that we believe in.
With 33% reservation for women still in paper the public transport system of Kerala reserve a modest 20% seat for the fairer sex. Once you enter a bus, what stares at you for the first 2 minutes is
“SITTING ON A LADIES SEAT IS PUNISHABLE UNDER LAW”
Well, do the male chauvinist society bother reading what’s written? They simply close their eyes grabbing a seat for themselves without even bothering for, its not their daughters or sisters who are standing.
Last day as I got into a crowded bus, I saw the ladies some even 30years elder to me standing .Assuming, the seats to be filled I made ma way near to the window .As, I turned back ,to ma own surprise saw the seat being occupied by mustache bearing idiots. On humble request, the guys started abusing me verbally .Yet, again none of the standing ladies came to ma help instead I could hear them giggle: Minds of sadists at work.
After 5 minutes of verbal brawl the guys finally got up (the bus guys did help out).There came the ladies running toward the empty seat. Don’t they have any soul, any self respect? .Reminds me of the story of the jackal ma mom used to tell as bed time story.
Jackal enjoys watching the lion hunt and finally after the kill is made it slowly comes out of its hiding den to munch whatever little is left.
