Happy International Women’s Day to to all women in all of our wonderful incarnations … mothers, daughters, aunts, sisters, friends, grandmas, nanas and more …
Today is a day to celebrate who we are and how far we’ve come, and to set our vision for where we still have to go. As Louise Otto said, “…the history of all times, and of today especially, teaches that … women will be forgotten if they forget to think about themselves.” So we need to give ourselves permission to think about ourselves today, something women aren’t always good at because we are often busy thinking about others!
To acknowledge and celebrate, we’ve posted a video below by World Population Foundation whose mission is to improve the quality of life in developing countries by ensuring sexual and reproductive health and rights for all:
And isn’t it fitting that Kathryn Bigelow won the Oscar for direction just last night.
