Woman, a beautiful creation of God! The angels on earth who make our life a wonderful experience altogether! All the great personalities of the world are born from the womb of woman and it is a woman from whom they have taken their life’s initial teachings. She is the creative force of the world in almost all expression and it is her guiding hands and tender love and care that finds expression. And to emphasise these qualities of women, we honour them all by celebrating International Women’s Day, commemorating the social, political and economic achievements of women over the decades.
The life of a woman is full of hardships and dependency. A woman is the most multi-tasking human being on this planet. A woman works relentlessly: putting more hours than there are in a single day: both at homemaking and in the professional world, still managing to look fresh all the time. She portrays different roles, that of mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend, counsellor, all at once; juggling it all to perfection. Empowering women is very necessary to bring gender equality, or let’s say gender equality is necessary to empower women. Mahatma Gandhi once said, “A woman is the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacity.” Men should understand that women are not only liable to only handle household chores or take responsibility of home and family. Instead, both men and women are responsible for everything in their daily routine. And it is observed today that women are capable of doing more complex tasks than that of a man’s capability. The world needs to salute a woman for her contributions to the society. IWD is all about making women realise their worth and motivating them to achieve as per their true potential and not restrain themselves into captivity. Women are meant to achieve far greater goals at different stages of life. So let us all respect, honour, uplift, worship — make her feel she is worthy of being treated like a goddess and no less.
