Security is the mother of development.
I don't know about you but when I walk out of the house at 6 to play basketball, I walk out knowing that I might never return or knowing that when I return things could be different. Worse...
If you read my previous blog (she walks she leads), you won't really see me criticizing on the security of women. I restricted my words back then. Because I wasn't sure.
But after reading Princess: More tears to cry, surveying and skimming through a whole load of websites, reading blogs, reading quotes, and even reading real life incidents I found out that it just isn't me. Millions of girls walk out of the house feeling the same as do, and millions don't come back the same.
This isn't fair. Women should have the right to walk out of their houses alone without the so called shelter of man, they have should have the same freedom the men do. They should be able to walk out wearing short shorts without being judged, with their hair open. Because it isn't wrong.
Did you know women in Syria have no right to live the way they want to. They have to marry at the age of 8 or maximum 14. They have to marry a man who probably won't live more than the years the girl is.
Why doesn't she get to live the way she wants to? 90% of the women in Saudi Arabia are illiterate because early dropout from school stands in their way to attain their dreams.
Let's ask ourselves this question? Why do we clap for the leaders that stand on the podium and give a speech on development of India. This India or for that matter of fact, this world can't develop if we don't encourage women to study or to keep them secure.
Our goal should be to let the women be free. To make them feel as if they are a bird. And when
they will be free, that's when the world will truly be developed.
Women are inspirations. They are probably a million reasons we should respect them. A million. The seeds can be traced back to the fairytales. Do you think Cinderella wasn't sad when she left the ball? Don't you think Ariel was more than sad when she had to sacrifice her voice just to go on Earth? Don't you think Bella was rueful when she had to leave her family and stay with someone who she didn't know? Do you think Rapunzel never thought why she had to go through so much of pain and trouble when her fake mother used to pull on her hair and keep her hidden from the world when a teenager like her should have been studying and dating?
And now, here's the rub. Everytime there doesn't show up a prince charming to save his princess. Everytime the story doesn't end denouement. Mostly the cases are that either she has to die or have to be subject to being slaves for their rest of their lives.
Women have the right to live just as men do. The sooner they are given the right the better it would be for the world.
