Changes are good for life only if they are adapted by your choice, your freewill. People often try to change their partner in the name of love , but is it right? Do they even love you if they are not able to accept who you are. How can anybody claim to love anyone if they want to change them completely. Am not asking people not to do something to please their loved ones , but there are so many other ways to show your love and affection.
We often hear phrases like, you are too fat, too skinny, too dark, too loud, too bossy, too shy etc., these qualities are disliked by boys. This whole concept is nonsense.. As if girls are only breathing to impress boys and if they can't they aren't worth it. Do anyone have any idea how badly it can affect someone. Know your worth girls!! You were not made so that one day some random people suddenly come into your life to judge you in every single way and at the same time claim to be the most important people of your life, claim to love you. It's like torturing mentally in the name of love.
One of my friend Priya recently got married, she was really happy because the groom was her long time crush and his family were friends with hers. Groom's family seem pretty modern to everyone in every sense as they were settled in Bangalore. She got married, went to her in laws , she had no complaints but one.. Her mother in law, usually she was quite nice, she treated her well, didn't let her work alone in kitchen, but she continuously used to complain about Priya's looks, that she is too dark, her nose is not in shape, she doesn't tie her hairs, she is too skinny etc. She cried every time listening to this. She said she never felt her looks were so not good or lesser in any sense. No one ever made her feel so . She did everything so that she can look fair, just to satisfy her MIL. But she is still not satisfied and I don't think she ever will. She ultimately lost her originality. Whose loss happened in this whole incident? Only hers. She should have known her worth. She should have known that she's not only limited to how she looks but how she behaves what she does, by her character, and most importantly how she wants to see herself. She should have taken a stand because trust me if you won't no one else is going to do that for you. Stop waiting for a savior. Fight back and be your own savior. This is just one story that may seem pretty simple to many people, with not very big problem. But there are so many stories of so many women that have gone through worst just because someone was not satisfied of how they look and many more pathetic reasons.
People need to change their mindset, their perception about things that we think are too little to think about. And we can start by not choosing to be on wrong side, raise your voice because next time it can be your loving daughter or sister. Accept yourself, love yourself because if you won't no one else will.
