International Women's Day

March 8th every year is now called International Women's Day.
This is to celebrate all Women who work, bring children up
and look after the home and their contribution to Life.
I personally am chuffed that I was born a Woman and have enjoyed my life with its ups and downs. I have had two Sons and now have three Granddaughters and feel happy.
I looked after both my Parents when they were dying and
feel I have done my bit in life.
I am sure you also feel the same and that the Men on here
appreciate what life has been with Women in it.
Bless.

Re: International Women's Day

Thanks for reminding us Sandy.
We women have always been equal, nay dare I say superior to men but quietly. We are honouring women's success, and reminding ourselves of inequities still to be addressed.

Thank you to the suffragettes.

I would like to think that things will improve for women who live with repression and who have no rights in some parts of the world.
