“Here’s to strong women: May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them.” –Unknown – #IWD2020 #EachforEqual

International Women’s Day began in the early 1900s and is a “a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women’s equality,” according to the official IWD website.

“A girl should be two things: Who and what she wants.” –Coco Chanel

I am proud to be a strong woman and I applaud each and every strong woman I know but I want to thank two special woman in my life starting with my Mum who has always given me the strength to follow my dreams, to never lose faith in myself and my abilities, who taught me to love myself, to be kind and generous and never to give up!

My daughter, such a strong beautiful woman, even in illness will always give 100% to everything she does. Giving her time freely to support others in need, while working and studying. She does this with a smile on her face and joy in heart, always wanting to bring out the best in everyone around her! I know she lives the following quote every day as do I. “Real queens fix each other’s crowns.” –Unknown

“She wasn’t looking for a knight. She was looking for a sword.” –Atticus

“Life is tough, my darling, but so are you.” –Stephanie Bennett-Henry

“Little girls with dreams become women with vision.” –Unknown.

“She believed she could, so she did.” –Unknown

“We all have a ‘Wonder Woman’ inside of us.” –Unknown

“You can always tell who the strong women are. They are the ones you see building one another up instead of tearing each other down.” –Unknown

There are so many inspirational quotes from some amazingly strong woman, I hope you enjoyed reading a few of my favourites.

I also hope you like the small selection of cards I have made that I will be distributing to the strong woman I work with to let them know how special I think they are!
