PEOPLE VS PREJUDICE

There is time when you feel abandoned like deepest darkness. You feel mother earth is against you. That’s when you understand the mysteries of life, for nobody rejects you when you still have yourself.

We always plan for the next day not knowing what will happen that next day. You may plan for your best meal cooked but it turns out by the next day , you can’t afford it . But we always have hope in the next day .

Looking through the life of an average girl child or woman. Everyone expects them to need a masculine hand inorder to make it especially in my continent Africa. Nobody ever believes that there can be a one woman army thinking women only make emotional decisions. “Well I don’t but am still a woman.”

Society thinks it has the power to make and destroy a woman , to mould and define her. Forgetting that it can only have that power when given to by a woman . For example looking at a girl child only done with her bachelor’s degree , society will demand that gets a spouse ,persuading her to believing that she can’t face the world alone. Well as a boy child will be questioned why he doesn’t have source income before getting a spouse. I would prefer girls regarding themselves as nouns and not adjectives. Because nothing defines them, nobody moulds them and tells them what to do , a woman can be self made .

It’s absurd that whenever society sees a woman winning, they look for the man behind it. Well women should never be invisible and erased in their own glory. I don’t wish women to have power over men but just over themselves. We should try to understand that this is not a men verses women issue, it’s people verses prejudice.
