What a lovely post------Its gonna be very helpful for me
Great post Thank you APARNA
Many of us are brought up without a sense of rights or entitlement. Whether as a result of our upbringing or our harsh inner critic, we lack a sense of what we are entitled to as human beings: our basic inalienable human rights.
Good article, and even though I know you've directed it at females, I honestly think ANYBODY can take this into consideration.
Well written informative article
Good words.
