Respect Woman?

We live in a very advanced yet diverse society. It is not sure who will we encounter when we step out of our homes every day. Life is unpredictable and so are people. On the one hand where this society offers us a place to live and grow on the other hand it also breeds crime. Diverse people and their unfavourable circumstances results in their diverse needs - monetary, emotional or physical …. People wandering and struggling to fulfill their needs are always in a folly to quench them. And unethical means adopted by them in this quest leads to CRIME.

We cannot be sure who will be a next victim of this unprecedented crime in the society and what will we have to loose…

Women have always been a soft target for evil doers in the society and it keeps increasing with time. Who should be put to blame? Respect of woman and their safety is an underlying question.

All I can say is that we have not taken it seriously YET. Or should I say we have not taken it respectfully as YET. It is an issue of women dignity and their rights to live as equally as men in the society.  Let’s not wait for an incident or yet another attack on female victim to arouse this thought. Let’s not wait for yet another woman liberation movement or a candle light protest to start with. Let’s think about it right now at this very moment and imbibe it into our minds.

Yes, I am being a feminist here, talking very boldly about woman liberation and rights. Well, I am just talking here about a very important point to create a space for men and women to coexist together in safety and dignity. Our mind-set, our culture and our feelings towards women-hood has to be cultivated in a manner to respect this thought and not intrude anyone’s privacy.

I am not talking about any gender based bias or reservation for women or nor am I urging the society to treat them special. But at least we can treat them equal and build an equal level of respect for everyone irrespective of gender.

Do we blame lack of education for this? To a large extent, yes, but on a deeper note I don’t really feel so. For that matter even some of the commonly used abusive words in the society go against the dignity of womanhood. And we, the educated masses of the society, so casually and naturally adopt or are ignorant about them. I am not saying that makes all of us disrespectful towards woman or womanhood. But, it spoils the culture and if not anything it aggravates a sense of cheapness in the society about woman dignity. All evil erupts from evil thoughts.

It’s a shame if we are so casual about respect for woman and yet vigilant for their safety. Let’s build a culture to live and survive for all of us.

Policing and taking very stringent steps to curb crime, misbehaviour or any other form of exploitation has to be brought in. But at the same time let’s also build around a strong foundation of respect and dignity.

Masculinity does not lie in exploiting a victim or passing indecent comments on women. It is about protecting them….Lets Respect Woman and their privacy…

Adapt to Change

Experience is the best teacher. We all learn through our experiences. We grow by experimenting with our ideas and exploring new insights from them. Whether it is about dealing with people, making a career move, or taking up an investment option, our assumptions are often challenged by the test of reality. People, who understand these nuances fast, learn from them and grow faster, whereas others, who struggle to get out of their prejudices, remain lost. It’s important to keep learning from our trials and picking up our lessons. Life is long enough to get another chance to do it better.  So, is true with businesses, it’s important to keep adapting to the changing environment. Variability can be managed if they are predictable. But, at times things go out of one’s horizon of thinking and clarity. When things go out of order, it’s important to be stable, introspect and take corrective actions. The more you accept reality the more you will widen your perception towards things. It is wis...

The secret of good communication!

Communication has a lot to do with our attitude. This thought struck me while pondering over the subject of effective communication with one of my teammates. It is essentially true that effective communication goes beyond the dynamics of language and talking well with people. The essence of it lies in getting, What, How, and When to convey a message right. And this reflects the maturity of a person. We often tend to focus only on factors like vocabulary, confidence, public speaking, and the accuracy of the language. But along with these factors, one also requires sensibility to analyze the situation and respond to it appropriately. Keeping the outcome in mind is the key to successful communication. It all goes well if we communicated in the best interest of the situation we get in. The leaders who drive work well are the ones who can communicate with others with empathy. Putting oneself in other's shoes is the best way to rationalize other's viewpoints. Somebody could be in pai...

Be Real

Image
  Gold does not worry about protecting its glitter, Shine is its inherent nature. Something that makes it unique & worthy. It knows that its strength lies in its purity.   Many who emulate it are well in its sight, But it is unshackled with their attempts to look bright. As no matter how much they pretend to shine, The truth prevails that their lustre is sublime.   Insecurity dwells in the pretext of a self-proclaimed glory, Fake propositions do not earn a success story. Genuineness is never in search of visibility, For confidence lies in being aware of one’s ability.   Needs and utilities will evolve with time, What’s significant today may tomorrow turn futile. What matters is how far have you been able to rise, Craving for adulations will only make you fragile.   What’s unreal will eventually fade away, And that what remains will find its way. More than your glitter, what’s important is your endeavour, Your str...
