Now, Would you like your daughter to be like Gauri? The Story of A Girl by Suranya 🦋 Gauri was very beautiful and wise. A perfect combination of beauty and brains. Pampered by her doting father. She attracted a lot of attention. But she was a mere teenager when she first met him. The widower. The older man. She had broken the stereotypes marrying him. Gauri was strong and independent. She didn't want a father, brother or husband to protect her. She could do that herself. She fought for her own rights. She made her own rules. She lived life in her own terms. She decided to have kids when she wanted. Gauri stood up against the bossy men who dictated the society. She came home when she wished to. She questioned everything at her own free will. She didn't like being judged by appearance. She wanted a daughter even after having two sons. She stood by her husband in his decisions and opposed ones she didn't like. She had a voice, the most important one in the family. She balanced work and home. She raised her voice against everything disturbing her in the society. Now, would you like your daughter to be like Gauri? Living life on her own terms? Daring to be brave? Will you be scared? That she can face difficulties in this chauvinist society so better she didn't try to match up to them? Will your male ego be bothered if your wife is more successful and earns more? Don't kid yourself. Of course it bothers you to bow to an woman. Let her run the home and society. Now think, what if Himalaya and Menka thought so too? What if Shiva though so? Would we have had a Mahisashurmardini then? Let your Gauri live her life the way she chooses to. Who knows, she can bring the next needed change to the world. #mahalaya #hinduism #navratri #gauri #maadurga #qajtdl #ajourneytodiscoverlife
