today, on this International Women’s Day, I’ve spent time thinking of the many women who have influenced my life…

I wrote these words in 2017:

whether they are family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances, or those I’ve seen from afar… 

whether they are alive or dead…

whether they know it or not…

they have had a part in making me me…

I am blessed…

now, more than ever, in these difficult days, we need to support others as they move forward;-)…
