HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY TO ALL JJKN FEMALE FANS

 A VERY HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY TO ALL FEMALE FANS OF JASSI JAISSI KOI NEHI!

A poem in the name of all those women who take almost all the responsibilities of home and workplace!!!!!

                                      Women and Work

                                I've children to tend,

                                         The clothes to mend,

                                The floor to mop,

                                        The food to shop,

                                  The chicken to fry,

                                          The barley to dry.

                                   I got company to feed,

                                          The garden to weed.

                                   I got shirts to press,

                                           The baby to dress,

                                   The cane to cut.

                                          I gotta clean up this hut,

                                    Then see about the sick,

                                         And cotton to pick..........

                                   

                                   Shine on me sunshine!

                                                 Shine on me rain!

                                    Fall softly dewdrops!

                                      And cool my brow again!!!!!

Are you thinking about yourself???  noo,please think about women allover the world!

Women: Half Of Mankind

 

        They perform two-third of the world's working hours.

        But they are registered, according to United Nations' Statistics 2000, as constituting one-third of the world's total labour-force.

        They receive only one-tenth of the world's total remuneration.

        They own only one-tenth of the world's material goods.

        According to Human Development Report 1995

      In Developing countries: women share 53% of total work-load.

      In Developed countries: women share 51% of  total work-load.

I agree with Rumi and Deli.  This is about women all over the world, not necessarily women of the West.  Anyway, Maya Angelou is from the west herself (not originally, but she lives here) and she has written this.  It is meant for us to understand women's contribution to society all over the world and not just how we live. And as Deli mentioned, some of this is also true of the west.

beautiful poem, Rumi--thanks for sharing!  Happy Women's Day everyone!!!  I feel very honored to share my birthday with such a special day 😊

Beautiful pem, Rumi. Thanks for sharing and wish you all a very happy Womens Day.

thanks Rumi. Women are strength and we wear the pants in
the relationship!   😃
