I would like to express my very deep gratitude to all women, on whose shoulders I stand, that have made it possible for me to express myself the way that I do, to make the choices I feel free to make, to make the money I am happy to be making, to vote, to love, to disagree. I want to express my gratitude to all the women whom I love, who love me back; who support me in my endeavors; who listen to me when I cry, when I laugh, when I worry, when I rant. I want to express my gratitude to all my teachers, you know who you are, for your patience, wisdom, friendship, and grace. I want to express my gratitude to all my women friends who share their lives with me, who share their jokes with me, who walk this path with me. I want to express my gratitude to the women who have died, who once taught me, nurtured me, challenged me, raised me, embraced me, and insisted I stand tall. I want to express my gratitude to my daughters, who continue to learn about being a woman and make me proud everyday.
I am grateful. Happy Woman's Day.
I realize this should have been posted yesterday... appropriately I was in the throes of hormonal upheaval yesterday.. not fit to write, let alone to remember what day it was. My apologies... the sentiment expressed today however, remains the same.
