Women Empowerment
Gender divide has long been evident in the pages of history. Yes, we were then boxed in a culture where women were just a silhouette behind a pro-male gender society. Women were never regarded as equally capacitated, strong, and able as compared to men. Women were irrationally born as servants and died as servants for the benefit of men.
We have reached a milestone in breaking through barriers to gender parity. There no longer exists a man over women” standard, and if there still is, it is solely based on individual choices. Today, what was once a nightmare is now a reality.
We are in a millennium where women’s excellence is rapidly outgrowing any field of specialization. Shining in every facet of human experience, women are definitely surviving in their struggle for gender equality. Gone are the days when women were just limited to the private sphere, watching society move its own feet; we are in an age where women drive the wheels.
Our society, in its continuing progress and development, is simultaneously abound with more and more problems popping out in a heartbeat. Thus, relevant to the state of nature where we belong today, where the majority of the people are striving instead of living, where poverty, disasters, and crimes are what decorate our society, it therefore requires citizens who are well-equipped with all the competence to deal with the complicated society. Thus, women’s empowerment is deemed necessary for everyone’s survival in this world of struggle.
It is important for everyone to realize, including those who disregard the abilities of women, that we are all born with distinct and equally important skills and abilities designed by our Creator that are best suited for our society. Women must never be taken for granted, for the sake of fairness. Each of us has our own share of blessings and is not limited only to men.
As soon as the world opened its doors for women and they unwrapped their capacities, women’s empowerment became unstoppable. All it took was for society to provide a way for them to discover what they can do and how far they can go. It proved its worth as it reached its height in the actualization of performance. Its importance is evident in how women made use of the opportunity to be a part of society. They come to the forefront when it comes to involvement, either in private or public life – in leadership in particular. They never fail, as soon as society accepted their role, to show that excellence is defined as women. They created a force that continuously helps society rebuild when it needs rebuilding and strengthens it when it weakens.
Surprisingly, women are far more than what one has expected. Their value has not been limited to self-satisfaction. In fact, the unified numbers of them have proved to be a great help in the alleviation of human life. They have given birth to a brand new way of leadership which was then least expected of them. In the past, we were bound to believe that physical strength is all it takes to attain good governance, and that women are never capable of doing anything significant in the world. However, after a long fight on the part of women to prove their self-worth, who would have thought that we would reach this age of women’s leadership where the whole world depends upon their excellence?
