Abuse against Women

Hello everyone. There is never a doubt in my mind when I started to write about this topic. Isn't it so obvious? Every day, I hear something so horrid that it shakes my inner core. It makes me tremble and feel threatened, what if the same thing happens to me? When you marry a person, whether arranged or love, you only know the person the way he wants you to know, isn't it?

I really wonder, how a person can be this heartless, to beat up his own wife or girlfriend, or even think about hurting a woman. Does he never think about what his mother would have felt if his father treated her that way?

I took up this topic on a special request from one of my followers, having the lovely name, Monica. She reached out to me and talked to me about how she loved a guy who used to hit her. I was disappointed to know that even though he treated her that way, she still wanted him to stay because she wanted and needed him in her life. And guess what the guy thought? He thought he can do whatever he wants to her and she would still stay. Talk about the extent of taking a person for granted. Finally, she stood up for herself and left him. But her sufferings did not end there. As she had many guy friends and now no way the guy could torture her physically, he started calling her prostitute in public, when she is out with her friends. How much crueler can the world get?

Being an Indian, where I think is a Land of God, humanity is almost at zero. Abuse is not always physical. Sometimes, without even knowing, you abuse a person. That is unintentional abuse. However, there are few people who like to call a person with names in public, to humiliate a person, to make them feel miserable but also to gain some sense of authority. This is normally seen in people who try to control things, but when the situation turns against them, to satisfy their ego, they go about doing these horrific, meaningless activities.

I personally have been a victim of such comments, prank calls, fake accounts, etc. All these experiences actually make you hate the world, but once you have moved on, it gives you a sense of power. Once you let it go, you will learn to love yourself better, knowing that you are beautiful, no matter what.

What I mentioned here might seem very little of value to you, but to those who have faced this, it feels the world to know that there are thousands who share the same fate, and sometimes, sometimes, it helps him/her to regain the strength they had lost.

Suicide is not an Option

How many times have you felt like giving up? Giving up on life that so preciously your parents took months to get you? You feel it is the only option, isn't it? No, it is not.

No matter how tough and rough life gets, there is always a ray of hope, guiding you. Life makes you go through many ups and downs, only to make you better, stronger and to prepare you for a challenge of a lifetime, which will change your life. But what do you do? You finish your life before you can even get to that one golden opportunity.

No, suicide is not an option. It is wrong. Not because you don't have rights to do whatever you want with your life, but because you are going to miss the most important part you are destined for.

Think. Calmly. Keep all your trouble aside for just a few minutes and think. Imagine you are gone from this world but you have come back to pay one last visit to all your loved ones. What will you see? Your mother hugging your lifeless body and crying hopelessly. She hasn't had food for several days and all she can think about is how much she loved you but that wasn't enough for you to stay alive. You will see your dad, not crying, thinking about how to pay you, last respects, but then when you visit him at night, you see him crying profusely, burying his face in a pillow. It will be the first and last time you would have seen him cry. It will kill you to know that you are the reason for all these tears and pain. Your brother and sister, sitting in one corner, with your photo in their hand, not saying a word.

Now tell me, is it worth it? Were all your troubles, caused by some bunch of strangers, worth enough all the pain your one action has caused to your loved ones? NO. Then why?

Let's not get driven by some rash feeling or anger take away this wonderful gift God has given you.

Remember, "Your mother did not carry you in her womb for nine months, suffered all the pain giving birth to you just to see you kill yourself."

If not for you, at least for them, STOP.
