A Display of Strength and Courage
The viral video, which was shared on July 25 and has more than 76,000 likes on it, is quite moving-a woman is seen walking down the middle of the road, carrying her inebriated husband slung over her shoulders. The picture of her carrying him with a surety of gait has resonated with several netizens who have termed the act as “Nari Shakti” or woman power in its most resounding avatar.
The woman is seen to be displaying courage and strength as she navigates the streets-face a picture of exhaustion and resolution. There is a lack of context as to where this is and under what circumstances, but the video appears to have resonated with people online. Full of praise and empathy, comments on Instagram say that people are complimenting the woman for hanging in there. “This is the embodiment of Nari Shakti,” one said. Another joked, “Can I get a life partner like this too, please?”.
The Deeper Message of Support and Resilience
While the video sheds light on many struggles that people go through, which are usually not taken into consideration, it takes on an even bigger picture: support and understanding in relationships. An extended meaning of the woman carrying her husband home would be support from partners during hard times. This viral clip brings attention to the strength of women and serves as a reflection of how we look at and support people around us during times of vulnerability.
