Women’s Day

I always have a doubt that what purpose is served by dedicating a day for something as important as Love or Father or Mother or Women or Friendship or….I guess the list is too long…
I just feel all these days are nothing but market building activities for big companies.
Well, its not that I don’t wish people on these days and join groups protesting against these days. Ya, I wish people on these days…But there is always a thought, why all these.
Maybe a day particularly dedicated gives us an opportunity to tell people how important they are.
Then again celebrating all these are a waste, if you celebrate Valentines day with someone and dump that person next week…
It's waste, if you wish your mother “Happy Mother’s Day” and next day make her cry…
It's useless, if you wish your father “Happy Father’s Day” and go on defying him every now and then…
It’s of no use, if you keep sending mails on Women’s Day and then see women getting exploited every now and then quietly…
Tell me what purpose it serves, sending mails on Friendship day and not being there with your friend, when s/he is alone and needs a friend…
It's not about celebrating these days...
it's about loving people and celebrating each passing day as an occasion of love and care.
That is the real reason why we celebrate.


I got this email to me by Yvonne today and I just thought it's worth keeping and sharing.

Why Women Are So Special.

Mum and Dad were watching TV when Mum said, "I'm tired, and it's
Getting late. I think I'll go to bed."
She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's
Lunches. Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the
Freezer for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box
Levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the
Table and started the coffee pot for brewing the next morning.
She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of clothes
Into the washer, ironed a shirt and secured a loose button. She
Picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back on
The charger and put the telephone book into the drawer. She
Watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung up a towel to
Dry. She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom.
She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted
Out some cash for the excursion and pulled a text book out from
Hiding under the chair. She signed a birthday card for a friend,
Addressed and stamped the envelope and wrote a quick note for the
Grocery store. She put both near her bag.
Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her Night
Solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her teeth
And filed her nails.
Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed."
"I'm on my way," she said. She put some water into the dog's dish
And put the cat outside, then made sure the doors were locked and
The patio light was on.. She looked in on each of the kids and
Turned out their bedside lamps and radios, hung up a shirt, threw
Some dirty socks into the hamper, and had a brief conversation
With the one up still doing homework.
In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the next
Day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added three things to her
6 most important things to do list. She said her prayers, and
Visualized the accomplishment of her goals.
About that time, Dad turned off the TV
And announced to no one in particular. "I'm going to bed." And he
Did...without another thought.
Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live longer...?
'BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL.........
(and they can't die sooner, they still have MANY things to do!!!!)
