Endurance - The key ingredrient

Given a thought, ' endurance', which seems to be a very common word, has  very powerful meaning with huge impact on our lives. As the dictionary says - its the ability to pass through the tough situation, I believe it has much more meaning to it. Endurance is one of the most important ability which one needs to develop for success in any sphere of life. Most of us are always enduring in a situation. We have been taught like that but most of the time we give up and when we do, we fail. In many societies where there is oppression of any kind, of a community or a particular gender they are taught from very beginning to endure the nonsense and avoid the situation, so that there are no bigger issues. One of the examples is from Khalid Hossini's Book where a particular female mentioned that her mother taught her from very beginning that she should not fight against his husband or any male for that matter. That males in Sharia law have supremacy over females, they have all the

Gender (in)equality - theory and fact

Girls are special, well this is not equality. If we need an equal status everybody has to be think like that, that includes females as well. If we start treating someone with preference we have already made them unequal. I believe there is not even a single quality/capability where girls are given anything less by God. Definitely there is a difference in the physical strength which can be overcome by continues exercise, but we are not concerned about any strength games like wrestling between a man and woman that we have to talk about it. On the whole, if females want to be equal they have to stop demanding to be treated specially. Its either equal or unequal, and once its unequal it is very difficult to demand anything in particular, different people will behave in a different way and it would be impossible to have a consistent behavior towards a particular gender. Moreover I believe the women empowerment has come a long way and has gone much away from the path it should have taken.

Lost - Only me or everyone

Well I feel lost many a times a week. I feel that I am not aware where I am heading towards, be it professionally, personally or spiritually. I don't follow any God, I have no ideals, I have no personal family goals and not even any professional goals. I am an early 30s guy in a 9-7 job living a very happy life otherwise. I don't think a lot but whenever I do I feel I am kind of suffocated in my own life and the suffocation increases when I realize of my condition. Sometimes I think, am I the only one having this feeling or there are more people like me. I do wonder if people even think about their lives, its meaning and what they need or they just keep on running after money or career. Most of my friends are well settled like me but whenever I meet them, no one if happy. I feel no one whats to think what they want to do and just keep on walking the set road , either its a good job or its a good business, mostly the end is money. The level of dissatisfaction is exactly opp
