We’ve all been brought up in a culture barely out of the negative and unequal treatment of women that it’s still corrupting the minds and the hearts of many societies nowadays. Most of those societies don’t even realize there’s an issue unfortunately. Hope is here ladies but, salvation must come from the inside.
There are so many things women do and provide for us that are still taken for granted by men and even women. We are often guilty of still simply expecting the work, time, and talents women give to their families, friends, and communities to be there whenever we need it. After all, it’s always been like this right? We expect it, demand it and do not appreciate or value the woman’s effort. This needs to change.
Women being arguably the dominant influence on all of us, why are the mothers, aunts, and grandmas, raising and influencing children to still confine women in an under appreciated role? Not enough people value the gifts women give to the world and if we did there would be more gratitude, respect, love, and honor given to women for the daily sacrifices they make to keep our lives from falling apart.
The uniqueness of women should be celebrated and not ignored BUT, salvation must come from the inside. Women need to work together and appreciate one another. Women must teach their children the value of women, their daily sacrifices and efforts must be brought to light.
It’s imperative that women be grateful when another lady helps them, serves them, or gives of herself in some way to her or her family, and they would make sure to return the favor however possible. It’s imperative that the younger generation sees women supporting other women and understand the value of their actions.
Ladies, men and women of the world are the product of your influence even more so than they are a product of the influence of their father. We need you to be uplifting, supportive and appreciative of and to one another. We need to be taught, encouraged, shown the beauty of women’s soul.
Women, you are the best of humanity. Take this fact and make it shine, so that we can all see it, realize it and value it. Show us the way, help us create societies that appreciate you, societies that will not be abusing you and we will grow, under your oh-so ever protective wings. Thank you for all.
