Celebrate yourself!


Today – March 8th - is International Women’s Day.

On May 12th 2019, when my family members and I were wishing each other “Happy Mother’s Day” (the second time that year) on our WhatsApp platform, someone asked,
“Haven’t we already said: “’Happy Mother’s Day!’?” Some of us proceeded to explain the difference between Mothering Sunday and Mothers Day.
The bottom line was: Women are celebrated several times a year – besides on their birthdays and at Christmas.

International Women’s Day sets the global “celebration of women” ball rolling. This year, I couldn’t help but wonder how many of us wait to be celebrated rather than take the time to celebrate ourselves. 

I believe that “The way you treat yourself, teaches others how to treat you. Treat yourself with love and respect.”[1]

So do something for yourself... celebrate yourself - you are worth it. 

Happy Women's Day!!!
