Wait Wait Wait… just before
assuming anything, let me set the scenario first,..;) hahahaha coz this was a type of general GD.
On 1 Sunday we were invited to one of the family gatherings
for dinner. It begins with usual greetings of hi-hello, how are you?, seen
after long time and exchanging smileys…. Right after few minutes we cousins
moved to 1 side with our group (I mean group of same age..;) )
Chit chat started in a manner like:
A: Hey Bro, Hws your new job going? What are the perks and
job role there?
B: Well it seems good, a good jump from previous
organization and profile is better, I mean something new to learn..
C: Hey look @ this amazing pic, how beautiful this place
looks!! But I wonder which place this could be with so serene atmosphere!
Her
eyes stacked on that pic…
Me: It might be Ladhakh/Shimla/Kashmir something like that
place…
C: Oh yaa, one of my wishes to rove @ Shimla- Manali.. Bro I
am planning this summer to go there with friends
A: Yes, we can go altogether with family, lil sis
C: Bro… I mean and I said with “Friends”
B: Aren’t your bro is your friend?
Me: Bro , a friend!!! He is the one who always think himself
as the best of all .. most illusionary person…
All
eyes on me.. I mean actually I forgot that I m seating with brothers too… I
signaled to C for my stupidity.. lollzzz
C: Guys you know it’s the best place to go and and chill out
there.. snow on all sides , cool breeze , drizzling, freezed river… just wow!
Me: Hey let me add something more… there would be;
Ø
River Rafting
Ø
River Crossing
Ø
Trekking
Ø
Skiing
Ø
Camping
Ø
Paragliding
Ø
Zorbing
Ø
Angling
Ø
Cable Car Ropeway and lot more….
C: Noooo…. Not fair yar… you are tempting me more towards it
, now I am dying to go there…
A: Ya, ya but not just with friends dear, or you can take me
with your group… and by the way who are ready in your trip to join you?
C: Me and D are damn ready and bro it’s a tour , we will get
more friends there on boarding of train, or say on the way..
B: Sounds interesting C, but you both are girls only. It
would be better if someone to whom you know should be with you for your
safety..
C: Why on girls every time..?? All restrictions .. mere
injustice
Me: What you guys are talking about?? C’mon grow up!
Ø
She is adult
Ø
She knows how to care for herself
Ø
She would learn if nobody ( I mean any of the
family members) would be with her
Ø
She would start recognizing people
Ø
Learn to mingle with different people
Ø
How to behave with strangers that suddenly
turned into trip friends
Ø
To live the life moving out of the comfort zone
and even…..
A: Hey Hey stop yar ; we are living in “India” yaa…All these
things that you are saying its good in just words not in execution.
B: Agreed bro, but does it mean that we should suppress her
freedom or say to make her always feeble by overprotecting her?
Me :Guys, whatever I said are not just words, its my
experience. And its not about being suppressing freedom..
Ø
Make her as strong as you guys are
Ø
Even she deserves the right to live freely and
fly with her own wings
Ø
Trust her abilities and watch her
Ø
If she reels, then hold her hand and ask to
continue her journey….
C: So can I go with my friends…..?? Bro please ask Mom and
Dad to allow………………
Sound
from far….. All of you come here for dinner…..
C: (Whispering in my ear) Thanks yar… Atleast you made some
efforts to make my wish come true..
Me: ………….What you all say , Is this “Indian” mentality will
ever gonna change for girls despite each one of us being highly educated….??
Thank God!! I am blessed in India too…. J J J
Hope every one could realise

Thank you so much pannu😘😊
DeleteVery true. Nothing will change until we try to change it.
ReplyDeleteBt i wan 2 ask question....do u think we r educated people?
Coz i dnt think our current education system has that of power which can change the mentality of people.
Do u really think education can change mind set of person. Plz share ur views on that
Bt really nic n eye opening story
Thank you Shivang...
DeleteSee education gives broad perspective to an individual... Narrowness gets diminished.. as far as system is concerned either quit or be the victim.. yes but change is possible with perception that is what I believe...
Thank you so much for ur precious time for reading and so much valuable coomrnco.. keep reading 😊😊
But as per my view, education is not able to diminish narrowness. Still people not accepting co education system broadly
DeleteNarrowness can only diminished by thinking beyond orthodox mentality. For that it doesnt matter a persm is educated or not. But he or she has to think beyond that typical orthodox mindset
That is what my point is in the blog ... Even being educated mentality doesn't change, so need broad perspective.. each one to accept it for all Indian girls at least..
