I Am a Woman

This is a RE-POST from my old blog and originally appeared on March 8, 2013 for the International Women's Day. This is re-posted to save the article.

When I was in college, I helped organize a feminist movement and my battle cry was:

“Onward with women’s struggle for equality!!”

Twenty years had passed. I am now a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a teacher, a writer, a friend. But I no longer feel the need to struggle, nor to shout my battle cry because I already won my fight and I already earned my place. I live by how a woman is supposed to live, with PRIDE and POWER. I no longer have to prove my worth, because I already have.

I am a WOMAN, STRONG and PROUD. I live side by side with men to make this world a better place to live in.

Happy INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY!!
