This abundant knowledge that exists online is incredible. We never had that earlier. So if they really consume the right content and absorb and practice that, bring it into their daily interaction they can achieve anything and can never be taken for granted. Right Knowledge is the true power and thatswhy i said if internet is “used correctly and consciously “. Today is better than yesterday and I’m positive that tomorrow is a better than ever . when all women feel comfortable and safe in being themself, i wish for a time when we read the news and find no more crimes because all of us are healed and happy.”
