One Sentence Story #9

One Sentence Story

One Sentence Story:

Grateful but not satisfied.

About the one sentence story:

Happy Women’s Month to all women. This one sentence story is a more sad take on it I guess. I am so grateful for the amazing women who fought so hard so that I could be here writing this. So that women could get closer to having equal rights.

At the same time I am still saddened to see where women are right now. We still have such a long way to go and an exhausting fight ahead of us. I hope we can all come together to make this world a better place for women. And not just post something about women’s day/women’s month and then forget all about it.

I was going to say something more light and uplifting but deleted that paragraph. I was having an okay day but it just got worse and by the end of it I am absolutely just feeling done. Just keeping it real with you guys. I walked for a bit and listened to music which helped though.

I’ve also been super busy with work and life so my YouTube video is going to take a while. But hopefully I’ll be able to finish it and post it by the end of the week. Let’s see. Sorry about the wait guys! But I am super excited to make it and hopefully it’ll turn out good. Let us see though…

    I love jackfruit, ripe or green, as a dessert or as a meat substitute. I also love celebrating the 8th of March. Cheers to all the women who made history, and to all the women who will make the future!

    Keeping it real is always best, though I hope you feel better! I personally would like for the US to finally treat breastfeeding like the normal thing that it is and not try so hard to make it shameful or hide it.

      Thank you so much! Yes, I wish people would stop being weird about breastfeeding. It’s a natural part of life and provides nourishment to babies. There’s nothing wrong or bad about it and people should be able to feed when they need to.

    I try to praise strong women everyday, not just during a day, week, or month. Tell a strong woman in your life that you admire her. It may make her day!

    As for jackfruit, I’ve never tried it. I used to have a client (she passed away now) who would get a new and different fruit every year to try with her grandson. It was their tradition. Very unique and quite awesome. Did you like the jackfruit? What does it taste like?

      That’s amazing, women should definitely be appreciated daily!

      Yeah, I love jackfruit and have been eating it for a few years now when it’s in season. If you eat it ripe and raw it’s really sweet and almost melts in your mouth. It’s nice cooked too and makes a very good meat alternative since it really soaks up flavour well.

    I am not very ambitious about women’s being equal, knowing the difficulty of it. I only hope that more women can get some break from cooking and cleaning. Wish AI can be a better cook and better cleaner, freeing women from these tasks. I really think that should be the priority for AI development. Instead of making AI weapons, surveillance tools etc, it should aim at helping women so that more women can be freed from these traditional tasks. Women want more inspiring jobs and more communicative relationships…

      Yes, unfortunately I feel the same way. Equality doesn’t seem like it’s going to be a reality. At least not in our next few hundred lifetimes lol.
      If people wanted to help women have better lives they could. But then they wouldn’t be able to exploit us and keep us submissive.

        Women should learn to navigate an unfriendly world and manage her struggle so that she can live a best possible life for herself. Women face a lot of challenges, like the prejudice of her own family and community, books that don’t tell their stories, the media that doesn’t want to tackle women’s real issues, a school system that’s more interested in scores and less interested in women, a juggle between family and profession, health issues etc. etc. It goes on and on. A lot of things we heard are very misleading and it is easy for a woman to make decisions that are not really good for her own benefit.

          Yes, I agree. Things are not going to get easier so we just have to learn to do our best with the hand we have been dealt. We have to be strong and do what is best for us.

    Women’s day just highlights how much worse life is becoming for a lot of women. The misuse of religion seems to be at the root of most of it. The Abrahamic religions stem from a misogynistic desert culture in which women were traded like cattle, had no rights and were viewed as evil temptresses that men needed protecting from. Christianity moved on a bit. Judaism to a lesser extent but Islam has a long way to go. What is happening in these Islamic theocracies is horrendous – Iran, Pakistan, Oman, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Saudi etc. We need a world-wide movement to insist on equal rights for women. We need to bring religion out of the dark ages.

      Yes, there is truly a long way to go before we have equal rights. And sometimes it feels like we’re going backwards.

    Hola amigos🙋🏻‍♀️
    Nothing special is happening with me right now.
    I like jackfruit. I have had that dish and it looks like ‘a non veg dish’ lol. I think it’s considered a chicken 🐥 for a vegetarian. If you are vegetarian, you should try to eat once.
    I’m both anyway.
    🐰I used to be a vegan and YOU KNOW what, I cried sayin good bye to my DEAR chicken 🐥. Now I don’t🐻.
    I guess, I’m again gonna attempt to be a VEGAN. 🐼🥗
