Change- Change is the sole thing in the world which is constant. The moment we are born and till we die , we experience changes in our life, in the lives of people around us and especially in our surroundings.

First of all, what irritates me the most is what people say that we have a patriarchal society with man as the head and woman as the care taker or what we term as "nurturer". i do not want to impose "feminism" in this aspect, for feminism being the most overrated phenomenon today. according to me, society should neither be patriarchal nor matriarchal. it should be equal for living creature. when hod has not created any such differences in terms of who deserves how much, then who are we to create those barriers? secondly, I question as in how can we say that we are on the path of progress when we oursrlves become the blockage of that path. the tradituons , customs and precisely the blind faiths that have bren followed since ages are still being followed without anyone questioning them. and the most annoying apart of tgese blind faiths is that everytime it is the woman who has to sacrifice. even if we say that sati pratha has completely ended but practices like these are still followed in many cultures. for example, muslim widows are not allowed to move out of a dark room, not even face the sunlight for four months after the demise of their husband. the sacrifice still doesnot end there, for the next eight years, the woman has to hide her body completely and not even her nails to be visible! but when a man's wife dies, he does not even wait for a month and gets married …show more content…
