The world
today is ageing very slowly. No complaints of course! Just thanks to the fitness
and the beauty industry. Surely there are many cover ups and the under covers
which add glory to every age arresting its advancing pace.
However, the
sad part of this ‘and they lived happily ever after’ story of the desirous
everlasting youth, is that old age in most cases has taken the role of Cruella.
Most women consciously or unconsciously are performing the act of the
Step-Mother Queen in the ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ story. They simply
want to be interestingly beautiful. In this their desire, they become the
witchy queens reaching fast to kill the little pure and originally beautiful
Snow Whites in themselves.
In this
journey of escape in the forest of life, living could become fearfully
dangerous with hidden wolves of ridicule, complexities, sensitivities and real
and imagined terrors.
Unless one was
to meet the Seven Dwarfs of understanding in the woods of existence, survival
would get filled with moments of panic of the unseen future. However, if the
modern women entered the cozy hut of self introspection, they would surely encounter
the wisdom of white beards. The seven little dwarfs would ease their troubled
souls with points to ponder on.
The first
little dwarf would say, “You are beautiful just the way you are.”
The second
little dwarf would say, “Face the world in all your simplicity.”
The third
little dwarf would say, ‘Be unconcerned about criticism.”
The fourth
little dwarf would say, “If you fail to please others, it’s okay.”
The fifth
little dwarf would say, “Don’t become sensitive to the nasty thoughts
of the
others.”
The sixth
little dwarf would say, “Don’t be afraid of not knowing answers.”
And the
seventh little dwarf would give the most important message,
“STOP
WANTING TO BECOME INTERESTING. INSTEAD, START GETTING INTERESTED.”
