the price of freedom

As a woman, first of all, you should be independent, autonomous, and educated. It should not be discriminated against by men or restricted by the laws of the country. In a country where women have to wear veils and robes, divorce is nothing! Grandma said she got divorced 53 years ago because she always thought it was better to live alone than with that bastard. The first marriage is to prepare for the second marriage.
How to be a woman? Grandma said that you will meet a lot of assholes in your life, they hurt you because they are stupid, you don't have to respond to their malice. The worst thing in the world is low self-esteem and revenge. Always maintain self-esteem and integrity. "Grandma, why are you so fragrant? Because I pick jasmine flowers every morning and put them in my bra, so it smells so good." A woman's self-esteem, self-love, honesty, and integrity are the most fundamental and precious qualities. It is a prerequisite for independence and autonomy.
What is the price of freedom?
Leaving a repressed and restrictive country to study abroad, but because he came from a controversial country and did not learn the words of his grandmother, he did not try to integrate into the mainstream society, and made himself a marginalized person in the West, gradually being accepted by the mainstream. Society is left out. Without the support of family members and the help of friends, I am lonely and miserable. With the freedom not to wear a monk's robe and veil, and not to worry about saying the wrong thing, but lost the motivation to move forward, lost self-esteem and self-love.
When I return to a country where my relatives care for me, I am restricted by the norms set by men and rights everywhere, restricting personal freedom. Some people died because of this (Ningma, who failed to jump off the building when the party was checked), some people were humiliated because of this (a friend's sister divorced and was harassed by men indecently), and some people were imprisoned in the police station ( If a man and a woman hold hands with a woman, they will be fined or whipped).
To become an independent woman, you must leave a country that represses humanity and gain personal freedom. If you get personal freedom, you must admit that you are from a controversial country, so that you can get freedom of mind. If you get personal freedom, you must give up the company of your relatives, and one will go outside.
This is the price of freedom.

    In your life you will meet a lot of assholes who hurt you because they are stupid. You don't have to respond to their ill will, the worst thing in the world is low self-esteem and revenge. Always maintain your self-esteem and integrity and never forget who you are and your country.
