One day I was returning from a library in a
bus, when I saw three college students eve-teasing a north-eastern girl, who was
sitting two seats away from my seat. They kept staring at and passing lewd comments
on her. I looked around the bus and saw that nobody seemed to care about the
revolting event going on right in front of their eyes, not even the middle-aged,
fatherly bus conductor. I was livid and wanted to intervene but I feared my own
safety; I feared being attacked by those boys and absolutely no one turning to
me for help.
Every time I think of that incident, I die
a little bit inside. It makes me feel sick to think that I could not be of help
to that poor girl that afternoon. I wanted to help but was too scared to risk my own safety. This is the attitude that needs to change. If
you cannot rectify things that are within your control, you have no right to complain.
Be brave. Stand up for the right things and against the wrong people and
acts. Let your voice be heard. Inspire others through your morals, courage and
determination. Be the change you wish to see.
