“As women, we have super powers. We are sisters. We are healers. We are mothers. We are goddess warriors.” – Merle Dandridge

I managed to pray, read Bible,   and work on my 28 For 28 Campaign benefiting charity:water  –we’ve now raised $3 942 of $28 000 with 52 days to go

Today is Women’s Day here in South Africa – a day that commemorates the 1956 march of approximately 20 000 women to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to petition against the country’s pass laws – and today I celebrate all those 20 000 women as well as all the women who’ve made me, me

On This Day 19 Years Ago

I managed to pray, read Bible,   and work on my 28 For 28 Campaign benefiting charity:water  – Alyssa Milano donated $35 we’ve now raised $3 942 of $28 000 with 53 days to go
