10 MARCH 2019 THOUGHT OF THE DAY





It is strange that how in order to maintain the social order, the society treats the exceptional cases. The outliers are pushed, pressed and assaulted in order to comply with the traditional norms and the rules made by the society. It is alright that certain norms and the so called values are there to control the lives of the ordinary people but one stick cannot not be used to lead everyone.
It is also a bitter reality the way women are treated in this world badly in general  and in the third world countries in particular . Further, the situation in so called Islamic countries for instance like Pakistan in particular is more exacerbated. The culture that fabricates that we protect our women in the name of Islam is merely a patriarchal world.
There are parallel lives that an individual faces in his or her life time. Within a normal course of life then, there are the minorities who even struggle to maintain their freedom. They even tend to survive those basic human rights that are bestowed to them by the prestigious organizations (I did not mention God because people may have different Gods but apparently majority of the countries listen to the United nations that is a common ground).  Many so called eastern value holding women may not agree to me in the wake of supporting their men but it is a reality that sexuality is not the only thing in life. Family making is good but not the end of life. At the end of the day (at least that one day) we need to face ourselves alone.
I wonder when I see the idleness among women. It is important to understand that ignorance is not the answer to the questions that life wants us to answer. It can benefit everyone but not to us only. We need to take the responsibility of ourselves. Patience is good but the one we exercise is not the one that is required from us by our lord. So we must stop manipulation.
