Girl talk beautiful pic

…and their authenticity.

…and their humor.

…and their big-picture thinking.

…and their creative side.

…and their self expression.

…and their grit.

Today, what women will you celebrate?

    Well, for one, I celebrate you, Jill. And I love that you chose an image with henna!

    I celebrate all women who live their talk and raise their voices – especially, the women of Egypt who stood up in protest in Tahrir Square last month & are raising their voices today for representation in the government. They are an inspiration to all women and reminder to never take our rights for granted.

    I am going to celebrate:
    The no bullshit, take no prisoners, not afraid to cry, not afraid to laugh, not afraid to talk Women and Girls.

    Long live the woman, long live the world.

    So crazy Jill – love the post and the pic. AND I think it is freaking cool that Aliza shared this post on fb and I come to check it out and I see a gorgeous picture with MY SISTER in it :) (the one with short hair) .

    And yes, they are two creative authentic women with grit. Love the words you put with the pic :)

    What a wonderful photo and simple way to express International Women’s Day! I celebrate many great women today including my moms, Chantel, you, Lisa, Shonali, Shireen, Stef, Angie, Kate, Maya, Oprah, Hillary, Janet, Alicia, and so many more. The year of my birthday was the first IWD celebration by the UN. Nice!

    Have a great day and an awesome week ladies.
