International Women's Day is when the world celebrates the economic, political and social achievements of present women, those who walked before us and the little girls who will one day carry our torches. Today, be Proud of what we've accomplished, Dream of the things we can and will do and then Act on those goals you've pushed aside.
To celebrate, check out
the festivities near you, view Reuters' wonderful slideshow of
Women Living In Extraordinary Times or honor your own special lady by adding her to the
International Museum of Women's map and then reading the inspiring stories pouring in from around the world.
P.S. Am I the only one who didn't even know there was an International Museum of Women?!
There were balloons all about campus today for it! Good times.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know there was an International Women's Day, let alone a whole museum!
ReplyDeleteI am with Em Static, I knew of neither, but thanks for introducing us to it! We certainly deserve our own day! :)
ReplyDeleteI knew nothing!
ReplyDeleteGuilty. I didn't know either. There's never any press on this and there should be.
ReplyDeleteWow, I didn't know there was a museum either.

Did you roar? I didn't hear nothing....
ReplyDeleteRAWRRRR!
ReplyDeleteCan you hear me now?
A museum you say? I only had a small post, almost as dry as toast. Love the blog, and the title.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the museum either. Good to know.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Nobody gave me a gift for woman's day. No one even congratulated me on succeeding at being a woman. Life with a vagina is not celebrated enough.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the museum, but in Ukraine, we celebrate it every year. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy -belated- Women's Day!
psst... I didn't know about the museum either ;)
ReplyDelete*RAWR* right back atcha!
