Thank you to the women!

Here’s to the fiery ones!

Those who fill the tank, refresh the engine and oil the wheels! The reason I keep running!

Many have stepped forward over the years to make life sweet when it was hard. I Thank you to the women!

Here’s to the women! Those who fill the tank, refresh the engine and oil the wheels!!

Many have stepped forward over the years to make life sweet when it was hard. I thank these women, they are the leaders. Here is a cheer, a thank you, an acknowledgement of gratitude!!

It takes a little thought to step up, look around, see who’s struggling and offer at hand. A gentle push, an enthusiast round of applause, a kind hug, a holding hand! Leadership activity of a feminist nature is so often characterist by empathy, thought and shared interest. I think it stands so powerfully against the raging machismo and abuse of power splashed across the front pages, screens and time lines. Thank you to the women that keep me strong, happy, wanted ... in! Those who check I’m ok, in, wanted, invited and welcomed.

It takes consideration to understand one’s privileged position and put it to good use. To know the power we hold, look around and put ourselves in the shoes of those less fortunate, comfortable, happy, and pain free. We don’t know what inhibits women’s potential to flourish, but effort to acknowledge and encourage is not going to harm those already ready to fly. But for those struggling it can change an hour, a day, a week, a year...

Thank you also to the men, those also acknowledging the gaps, the inequality, the discrimination and injustice weighing down on women! The feminists, activists, and community shakers. Speaking out, teaching peers, raising generations to be kind with their strength, sensitive with their power, generous with their privilege.


It takes a little thought to step up sometimes, to look around, to find those struggling, and to offer a helping hand. A gentle push, an enthusiast round of applause, a kind hug, or a holding space! Leadership activity, one of a feminist nature, is so often characterist by empathy. A reflexive thought, a spirited action and a shared interest. I think it stands so powerfully against the raging machismo and abuse of power splashed across the front pages, screens and timelines in the current age. 

Here's a personal thank you to the women that keep me strong, happy, wanted ... in! Those who check I’m ok, I'm in... wanted, invited and welcome.

The feminists, activists, and community builders! Speaking out, teaching peers, raising generations to be kind with their strength, sensitive with their power, and generous with their privilege.

Have happy days, I thank you!!
