The social awareness ad

Feminism, society

See this before you go ahead and read the post…

Now tell me what was your reaction to it?

I have had my blood boiling seeing this…. why u say?

I say why not? I couldnt see anything right with the ad… agree that the caption says Funny ad but excuse me I didnt find it funny at all…come on why are only girls always made fun of?

When will we for heaven’s sake accept that we atleast need equality… how to achieve it is a step to be thought about later…

The words “Ladko ko aazadi mili nahin and hum baat kartein hain naari mukti ki” (the boys havent got freedom and we talk about women’s liberation) is echoing in my head since I have heard it….

I agree there are some issues that need to be dealt at a larger level and not just women and men…I agree that there are some issues in which both men and women are suffering but then we should deal with these issues together right? there too we say and assume that men’s problem should be solved first and then comes the women…

WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN’T LOOKING

children, love, respect, society

Today I rcvd this in a mail… I am sure each one of u have read this but still I couldnt control myself putting it up here…

If only we understood what this means, we would have a better world

A message every adult should read because children
are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw you hang my
first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately
wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw you feed a
stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind
to animals.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw you make my
favourite cake for me, and I learned that the little
things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I heard you say a
prayer, and I knew that there is a God I could always
talk to, and I learned to trust in Him.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw you make a
meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I
learned that we all have to help take care of each other.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you give of your time
and money to help people who had nothing, and I learned that
those who have something should give to those who don’t.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw you take care
of our house and everyone in it, and I learned we have
to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I saw tears come from your eyes,
and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it’s all right to cry.

When you thought I wasn’t looking I looked at you and wanted to
say,’Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn’t looking.’

LITTLE EYES SEE A LOT
