Seen 22 June 2011
A one woman crusade
Against injustice
Against tradition
Against centuries old beliefs
She has gone through the experience
She has made a decision
That life is not for her
Life is meant to be better
On her own
Or with a loved one
Others may have given up
But she soldiers on
With gusto, spit in the wind
It is not a bed of roses
Each day another uphill battle
Sometimes the battle is not won on that
day
But there will be other days
Time will come
When the trodden rise up on their own
She is just a conduit, the front line
Others have to take up the mantle
One day
It will be the women themselves
Unbidden
Asserting themselves
Taking their place as equals
