My dear; Come into a world with no whites or black
But a world with pink, blue & green
A world that’s not prejudiced to gender
Where “She” & “He” is equal
Where her learning & liberty is imperative
Where she is neither a possession to be bought
Nor an asset to haggle for -
A place where your dreams are not taken away on
tyranny
A world where your life is on your choices
With the choices made by you, not enforced on!
Come into the world where your body & soul belongs
to you
Where you are worried only by the goal not the
journey
A world that allows you to do mistakes, to learn from
them
A world where you fly like a bird persistent &
unscathed
Where promises are made to you, not on you
Where your tears are precious & your smile is
priceless
Where life keeps turning you to your roles graceful
As you be the daughter to the sister to the companion
To the world so wonderful, to see the world everyday
grow old!
One
of my good friends becomes a mother recently with a baby girl. While
congratulating on her big news & talking about the plans she have for
her new born, she exclaimed, “I’m worried, every time I’m late from work
& my travel alone, will i ever make it home safe? – i can’t think about
having my baby, going through those bad experience and worrying all the time
about her safety, this place is not safe anymore, you know“ and she went on..!
She
belongs to the generation-x which we proudly call; modern, intelligent & carefree, ever ready to do the things she wants – this other side of
hers took me by surprise. I wonder, how many people will be there who think
like her, I’m sure many –
Are we worried about
having a girl child because she is not safe in the current world; Are we really
giving the right message to the world, Think it over!!
