Today is International Women's Day. It's a day to celebrate women and strengthen women related causes in this world. I am fortunate to be able to write a long list of the amazing women in our lives. I am lucky to be able to celebrate today and any day with freedom. It's a wonderful privledge to be a woman but especially to be a woman in North America. With the day in mind, there were reminders everywhere of all the amazing miracles women bring into this world. Not just through child birth or taking care of their families (though these are truly important things) but in the how they change things in the little worlds around them, how much love they can give and how so many women have changed the entire world with their bravery.
Today I celebrated International Women's Day doing a Zumba class with one of my best friends that was in support of new cancer research. The entire class was filled with women. The teachers were women. There was a 88 year old survivor of breast cancer 2x over sitting in a chair and watching her grand daughter lead a class for the rest of us. Our instructors, who were women, smiled all through the class constantly increasing the vitatlity and energy of the space. I felt so grateful that all around me were amazing women who lead as examples of how to live their life. Survive, love, smile and stay healthy... support one another and have fun. Enjoy life.
Happy International Women's Day.
