Affirming the unsung underdogs

So I have observed some tendencies...

Affirming something is only to give push to positivity. It does not deny the other negative aspects side of same coin. It only means we take effort in propagating positivity which not many would have been able to see it.


In the name of playing same mind dialogue of proving to the world or public around us, in acknowledging the obvious goodness of the obviously showcased people.

We often almost do not have visibility or even forget to voice which is the underlying silent truth of the silent stars.

Which mean, most of the underdogs go unsung.


We tend to become taken over by our acknowledging power and think we are affirming the right thing by saying it over and over again, which it would be, however we endup alao damaging the subtle-ty that comes along with those who do not explicitly want to prove anything to anyone, or they are only focussed on what is needed to be the most 

Sometimes, the publicly good doers may be underdogs too in other scenario. However at times the situations , localities, our typical blaming mentality based society, people expectations to hear or talk in certain way etc etc would lead the regular underdogs to remain unsung forever, based on their persued image.


You make be "woke" and say who is worried of image or it does not impact me, to some people it will impact and damage to the extent that they become helpless.

With helpless comes the mentality to reject things around you, seclude from things, getting victimized, and getting blamed, not finding emotional support and many of the likes...


Now if some positively conscious person identifies and tries to voices this, will also get challenged by getting the external affirmations, so called self attested statements for inside stories and bla...thanks to the audacity and confidence , achieved by individuals to prove some good deed out of their image.


I'm amused at such times for the audacity, and preconceived notions based mentality,  where we think we doing good, but actually endup doing larger bad unknowingly!

This can happen to anyone at any stage.


The unsung underdogs may not be perfect, nobody is. And who are we to judge others.

No body is perfect , nor God.


Affirming a thing is only a process of reflection, to give it little push, to share that positive light across and around, if possible.


Even if we helping others, or acknowledging it's for our own selfish reasons, for a satisfaction and image build up in public eye,  which is okay, how ever it shall not encourage the unreasonable , and self inflicting,  effort damaging apprehensions in the name of all so above mentioned "good intentions".


So I say the more we become sensible (not sensitive) in acknowledging something, the better chance of not being in some paradigm, in which only we and our false, pretentious opinions exist.


Leading us to be more and more refined versions of self awareness and evolved species...

Everyday is Women's Day

My audio bite on IWD 2020 in All India Radio in local language. 

2020 అంతర్జాతీయ మహిళా దినోత్సవ సందర్భంగా రేడియో వాళ్లు ప్రసారం చేసిన ఆడియో బైటు.

AIR audio🔊 bite from 2020:
https://lnkd.in/gYNazKjT 

2020 year's IWD theme "Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow".

This year 2023 IWD theme "Embrace Equity".

👩‍🌾👩‍⚖️👩‍🏫👩‍🎓👩‍⚕️👩‍🏭👩‍💼👩‍🔬👩‍💻👩‍🎨👩‍✈️👩‍🚀👩‍🚒👮‍♀️🕵‍♀️💂‍♀️

This was shared during lockdown. It was a short audio bite suggesting how to empower each other not just to showcase, but to actually keep it in practice, which we are already trying to do.

🔆🔆✳️✳️🔆🔆✳️✳️🔆🔆✳️✳️🔆🔆

I say, instead of non value added gosspping, drama, pulling each other down, bad shaming & the likes...what if we tend to have paradigm shift in our approach towards fellow human, women.

🤌Anything that can be subtly condemned can be condemned.
👎Anything that can be ignored can be ignored.
✊️Anything that needs to be rejected, can be rejected with respect.
☝️Anything that needs to be taught as lesson, can be taught as lesson as well.&
🤝 everything that needs small push needs to be supported.

Bottom line: Not everything has to fall under the lines of the accusation / blame / etc, there-by...
🌸Giving and taking chances.
🌼Proactively approaching all women around us irrespective of their socio-popularity, status, or beauty or otherwise. 
🪷Being non judgemental towards appearances or of the sorts.
🌹Trying to extend helping hand,...&
🌺Not try to take things for granted otherwise that are been provided in support to us by fellow humans either men or women.

Also cheers and shoutout to all men 🧔‍♂️👨‍🦱👨‍🦰👨‍🦳👨‍🦲🧑‍🦰& others who been invisible support system to the progressive women.

Happy everyday women's day💃to all.

As single daughter, I genuinely asked my mom a few weeks ago, what do you want from me , what do you expect from me? 

Well, she told "I do not expect anything from you" 

And after few weeks she told me " Isha, you asked me few weeks ago, what do you expect from me, I expect you to learn stitching, there is an ongoing class for less price and you will get benefitted in future, if not now(making you independent and sustainable in times of need)".

Now, that is futuristic sustainable strong thinking in my opinion, not to get compromised & be empowering !

Often we tend to focus on negative things, forgetting to thank essentially important people around us.

Hence, also attaching a gratitude letter that I wrote to my mom, with her own self - asked me to publish it in public forum (she gave her consent already). Although this letter is mother's day material, sharing here as a woman's acknowledgement to another woman.

This post is dedicated to all strong women, & the even empathetic men in my life !
