When we talk about Women’s day first and foremost the eminent women comes into our mind. That is Indira Gandhi, Kalpana Chawla, Dr Kiran Bedi, Arundhati Roy, etc. Now, let’s just scroll back and start thinking from the grass root levels. By grassroot level I mean “The Homemakers”. The women who stay at home and perform their duty and manage the outside world. I would like to pay my tribute to them on this occasion. Because Homemakers are the one who adds cement between the bricks in building relationship.
Mahatma Gandhi had once declared: “Woman is the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacities. She has a right to participate in every minute detail of the activities of man and she has an equal right of freedom and liberty with him. She is entitled to a supreme place in her own sphere of activity as man is in his.”
Morning sunrise till dawn people work in office for a stipulated period of time but a homemaker works 24*7 in her own premises. If someone falls ill in house or if some family function is organized, she is the one who remains awake and prepares whole night to give smile to others on the next day. Homemakers perform their work dutifully without any reward in return. Her main focus and aim is to see her family happy and healthy. At times she bears all anger and roughness yet she tries to prevail positivity in the unworthy atmosphere. She plans the work and executes it in an organized manner. She adds beauty, grace and charm to every aspect of life.
She does not contribute directly to India’s GDP but does the same in an indirect manner. In the present scenario instead of pressurizing their children, they are focusing more on their interests, ambitions. They are providing ample scope to their children to build their horizon in different spheres of life. They have cut the weblogs through their understanding which were blocking their way. At some point of time every woman is troubled with the question of giving priority either to job first or family first. It’s the most tough decision a woman has to go through. But here comes the main role performed by the Homemakers. They decide to manage home and work both simultaneously.
Homemakers have also geared up in supporting their family regarding financial aspect. They are making best use of their talents and skills which in return helps them to earn the maximum. Working from home is not a limiting factor. Those having artistic attributes, interest in cookery or dance are making full use of their talent by taking classes at home. Those qualified as C.A., are writing accounts for small clients. Those good at selling skills, direct marketing for products like Amway, Modicare, Tupperware, and Avon etc. Moreover, internet today opens a myriad opportunities right from online share trading to selling hand made items across the world through Ebay. Taking up such a career provides with a decent regular income.
No matter how much money one makes, saving, investing and making it grow is the most crucial part. Begin by organizing finances, comparing assets with liabilities and making a list of the income received and expenses made each month.
No one has ever won the game of chess by taking only forward moves. Some times you have to move backward to get a better step forward. The caliber of a woman is not how she prepares for things to go right, but how she stands up and moves on when things go wrong. It’s easy to do, to be the way others are doing. But Homemakers make their own way and leave the trace for others to follow.
