To Be A Woman Is Not A Days Job

Today we celebrate ourselves.

Today we show the world what we are made of.

Today we dispel all rumours.

Today we stand up for ourselves.

Today we grab all balls.

Today we shake all tables.

Today we shatter all fences and roofs.

Today we break all rules.

Today we display and celebrate our

STRENGTHS, VICTORIES, ABILITIES, AMBITION, GRACE, INTELLIGENCE, BEAUTY, COMPASSION, STYLE, SASS, RESILIENCE, POWER, PROWESS, UNIQUENESS, FEARLESSNESS, COURAGE, VALIANCE, NERVE, GUTS and GLORY.

Qualities we exhibit everyday; 24/7, 366 days a year (without showing off, you know) but the world chooses to ignore. So today we show them; let them see us, make them take notice. We are giants. Our time is NOW, we demand PROGRESS, we #PressForProgress.

So here’s to all the women, “Shoulders back! Titties first!”, big strides and let’s grab life by its horns (or balls).

Happy International Women’s Day Ladies.
