International Women's Day

Recommended Posts

For someone getting close to having 60 years of "experience" I try to take encouragement from the advances in women's rights, respect and position in society in the western world ... While acknowledging that there is still a long path ahead of us

 

Sadly that good feeling vaporizes quickly when I look at the rest of world ... And I get even more discouraged when I see some of those 'rest of world' situations showing up in Canada

So nice it is to have a " Womens Day" cause after all women are pretty amazing people!

 

I know my grandmother was incredible because of the strength she had to have, the determination to make it as an airplane mechanic in WW2 !!! Plus raise 12 children, all the while with her husband over sea's fighting for liberation!

 

My mother who has worked a government job on the base, full time hours, continued her education all the while raising 3 kids and looking after her husband, and dealing with all the issues and bumps, curves that life has!

Union president, fighting for human rights, raise 3 girls.... how did she ever have time? She made the time!!!!

 

I can only hope to be 1/2 the women they were!!!
