The legacy of the softest brilliance, a shining gem in the pockets of His greater creation, the mistress of aestheticism and tolerance, the female foetus always has been carrying the better omen for all mankind so far... and this transcends to all forms of life on earth :-)
What do you feel when you see a little girl clinging to her barbie or her mom's apron and chuckling... ?
What do you feel when you see a gal to school with a red or blue ribbon eating pop-corn or golgappas with her friends walking her way to the bus stand... ?
What do you feel when you see a college-going damsel parking her bicycle and prancing her way up to the classroom.. ?
What do you feel when you see a spouse in that blue gown kissing her groom on the lone alley in drizzling rain.. ?
What do you feel when you see a matron in the pinafore, with the frying stick in one hand, explaining Daffodils to her little one... ?
What do you feel when you see the biddy swaying on her wheelchair seaving grain or reading the Bible.. ?
...the answers will differ from a man to a woman, a young chap to a middle-aged man and then to an elderly man... Some of them still demur 'her' ability, some muddled with 'her' superiority, some mollycoddle the girlchild and yet, some sexists do not leave smirking at 'her' and throw tantrums to demean them pejoratively.
The very moment as she steps into this world- prejudice still persists among a majority of our society to abase and carry her off- an heinous and legally punishable crime, yet a mututal decision from both parents do offer the way for the infanticides. If not ignoble enough, they sexploit them applying them to cheap labour, wild sexual harrasment and molestation. Young girls are taken as elements of fun used as carnal toys- beaten up, kept at gunpoint and raped... there's no one to counter them until activists like Sunitha Krishnan came forward and led to commence a prevention-cum-relief campaign for the ones being 'used'.
The 18-year old Anita belongs to a bourgeois lower-middle class Delhi family, brought up in a coddled guardianship. She acquiesces to her mom and pop, toes their line; her talents and passions are never recognized but always cherished and nurtured covertly by her... she has learnt to tuck away her fears, hopes and efforts regarding her passions and talents from her own family... but like most of us, she too likes to cross all bounds to step out to the adventurous world outside and crow, to her gloating independence ...
One fine day, she finds her prince charming out of nowhere, gets giddied flying along his inrordinate charms- his mien, gets pampered, loved and carried miles away; her superconsciousness draws her to feel what is left for her to attain felicity. She sells her innocence to Raj and submits herself to him,, not knowing what awaits from 'him' is tragically unbefitting for her life. She is bewitched as no other prince charming had even taken her notice since...; Raj leaves her on a cruel anticlimatic note and all of her innate depressions and frivolent despair come rushing back lickety-split . . . . .
I am not putting this down based on either pity or sympathy for Anita and girls alike, but with an insight to the minds and hearts of these girls who have faced such bummers in their life and the consequent feelings and hatred which they grow towards any guy who even try to honor or compliment her genuine traits. She slowly grudges her revolution against masculism and becomes a staid revolting dowager.
Then, when Deep, her old school friend makes her a genuine proposal, she calls it down. Deep who has been keen on his care and love gets disheartened outright; he complains and pleas... his every attempt gets rejected scornfully.
Anita had been fighting with her moral conflicts very hard since her childhood, and just when she went to entail her life with the conclusive happiness, luck played its most wicked part.
For Raj, Anita suffered, and thus Deep was taken the toll on! Ab khut hi samjho who is to be blamed for ?
A simple message to all Raj-s out there who become the '???' in the life of such decent and pure-hearted girls like Anita:
These most wonderful creatures on earth are to be exploited, but to be exploited properly, very carefully, delicately and lovingly if you want to have a partner in your life in future, who would give you the same treatment. Otherwise, when you will have chance, you lose it face down. Be a cool dude from outside, but when it comes to angels like Anita, please mould your heart for her...
Anita was born a cute little chortling baby girl, brought up in a controlled environment, her spiritual growth restricted and the flavor of power and pleasure dismantled, that a boy could've got way finer in his upbringing. What was her fault? She is not the weaker sex, nor that she cannot be at par in excellence with her male counterparts...then why is 'she' deprived of equal happiness?
Anita was an innocent baby, is an obedient daughter, ...few years hence, she could have been a graceful and loving girlfriend and then, a beautiful and responsible loving wife. Then comes the part of duty, which no guy can ever replace and perform... being a mother, which only a loving caring mom knows who discards all her worldly pleasures behind nurturing her child and giving it all the world's warmth in her arms...Why then Anita's parents are so reluctant to educate and value their female child with the same love and care? I am not talking here about those who are economically well backed up and have all the fun and joy they need to fulfil and contain their life with... I am talking about the billions of such victims of injustice as Anita.
This take of understanding for some guy may take a year to conceive, for others they may keep wondering for their whole life... yet for the rest, they'll sleep in the dark and when they'll wake up, they'll become one of the Raj-s who live their lives based on exasperation, egotism and pretentiousness. What they achieve are money, fame and property. What they lack, is not in their ambit of comprehension. They will lack the most-wanted 'love of a woman', who may do away with all of these, still living up to all of his desires and requirement.
BE SHE YOUR OWN SISTER, MA OR WIFE, OR SOMEONE ELSE'S,,, BELIEVE ME DUDE-- THERE IS NO GREATER BLESSING IN THIS WORLD FOR ALL YOU 'DEEP's OUT THERE TO HAVE A GIRLCHILD GROWN TO BE YOUR BEST FRIEND OR A GENUINE WELL-WISHER WHO WILL BE THERE WITH YOU, BY YOU AND FOR YOU FOR EVER... :-)
I hope I have been able to convey a short message through this encomium for Anita, today's female you will find in most families, one of every five gal you may see around you. Please respect every women, as they are your assets, my assets, our assets and assets for themselves in making this place more peaceful and happier where we live in. No one knows who which day can make India shine in name of Science as Kalpana, in the name of world recognition as Mother Teresa, in the name of Sports as Saina or Kamaljit Sandhu or Malleswari, or rise in the name of leadership as Hon Pratibha Patil or Indira Gandhi, or in the name of valor such as Sunitha Krishnan or Ms Kiran Bedi... ...
Posterity will see more such assets if you help them make possible ... ... ...
