Women's Day

(Image courtesy Google images)

On this women’s day I wish that men keep away the flowers, wishes, cards, gifts and all the commercial trappings and

-         Acknowledge that women are an integral part of their lives

-         Accept that women complement men and vice versa

-         Appreciate women for what they are

-         Concede that there are things women can do better and there are some things only they can do

-         Free them from the shackles so that they may realize their potential and understand themselves

-         Keep ego aside and understand that they are equals

-         Love the women unconditionally

-         Protect the women from harm when it happens in plain sight

-         Recognize that the woman on the road is the daughter, sister, wife, mother of someone 

-     Remember that they also have mothers, sisters, wives

-         Realize that it will be difficult to understand what women want

-         Respect women for what they are, what they do and what they sacrifice

-         Resolve to abstain from violence against women and raise their voice against incidents outside

-         Teach their sons at an early age that women deserve respect

-         Thank women for being there

-         Understand that man and women do not think alike
-     Understand that this is not for one day only but for a lifetime

To the women who have helped mould me what I am today – my mother, my teachers, family members, friends, class mates, co-workers, crushes, my better half, my princess and so many more Thank You and a very Happy Women’s day.

P.S. Flowers never hurt and can be given on any day
