This month's thought provoking snippet

Do not be afraid to stand up

We’ve all been in situations in our lives where we see something wrong  happening, but we are too afraid or shy to stand up for it and make it right, it could be because we are afraid of how humiliation will bring a downfall on our reputation or how others will judge us from there onwards. It’s true, we can’t right all the wrong in this world, but we can right the wrongs that happen around us.

If you hate to see wrong being given the VIP pass to go on happening every day, whether its Sexism, Racism or even discrimination on absurd grounds, then why not step up, gather your attitude and stand up for what’s right? If advocates like Martin Luther King Jr and Abraham Lincoln didn’t stand up for what’s right, Racism, Discrimination and Slavery would still be acceptable even today. Think about it. Did Malala Yousafzai accept her fate as a Pakistani woman and do nothing? Look how bold and brave she was to go against society’s stereotype and fight for the rights of female education, she was not afraid to show people, to show society that status quo was wrong and it HAD to be made right. 

If your Heart tells you that you are doing the right thing, you don’t need to have second thoughts. Go ahead and make a change in society, you never know who you will inspire and make an impact on. Slavery and Racism were normal things until someone had to point out they were not.

“Be the change you want to see in the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi

"Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women who have her back"
