Rashmi, just out of college, had found a good job. She was happy with the job, but a ruffian troubled her on the way to office. He passed dirty comments on her. Rashmi used to feel angry but she tolerated it. Rashmi complained to her mother, who asked her to avoid the ruffian and keep away from him. She did not find this answer satisfying. She told her best friend about it. Her friend advised her to travel with friends. She did not find even this answer satisfying. While going to sleep, she prayed to God to show her a way. Rashmi felt a voice telling her, “Fight injustice. No one can harm you, if you are right.” The next day, Rashmi felt confident and stronger. As soon as the ruffian passed a comment on her, she gave him a tight slap. The ruffian never troubled her after that.
