A ‘girl’ she was – often accused; trapped, in a society of hypocrites!
Not men, but women themselves were her enemies; nagged upon by her own mother for not being the favoured ‘boy’.
Married off young, she then became the favourite target of her greedy mother-in-law; she didn’t bring in enough dowries you see.
When she gave birth to a ‘girl’, whole world pointed fingers at her again, it was her fault!
Fed-up, untangling herself from the cauldrons of life, one day she finally took flight and decided to live life on her own terms – giving a hoot to the society.
Pin It Now!

how often do women actually dare to take flight?
ReplyDeleteRighteous of her to do so! I marvel and grieve at the fact that such sexism still exists in modern society.
