Women’s History Month; Five Of My Favorite Quotes From History Making Women

March 2, 2015

whm-collageIn the event that you were unaware, March is Women’s History Month. While it is important that we celebrate women all year, March is a time to bring the strength and beauty we embody to the forefront.

Since the beginning of time women have dared to take up space.  We have blazed trails and went against the grain all in an effort to gain the respect of our male counterparts, to prove that we are equally as great and to make our mark on the world. The actions of these women are the foot prints that women like myself follow today as a guide to where we are going and where they have been.

I think that I have become known attaching qoutes to many of my post. These quotes have proven to be very inspirational, which is why I chose to share them. Today, I would like to share five of my favorite quotes from historical women who inspire me.

1. “I have the right of education. I have the right to play. I have the right to sing. I have the right to talk. I have the right to go to market. I have the right to speak up.” — Malala Yousafzai

2. “How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!” — Maya Angelou

3. “If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.”– Margaret Thatcher

4. “Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.”–Zora Neale Hurston

5. “Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.” — Mother Teresa

This is not a post about fashion. This is a friendly reminder that the way you style your life determines how successful you are and the influence you offer the world. How you style your life connects you to your purpose and living your purpose draws you closer to God. Your style can’t be mimicked or  matched; it is a muscle only you can flex.

This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly th This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly the way I felt when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I remember the day I planned to abort him. I damn near remember every moment that I have shared with him over the last 23 years and every moment I had with God on his behalf. As we prepare for yet another amazing moment, I am grateful. 

Grateful that God loved me enough to bless me with this joyful black boy. Grateful that he was patient as I grew from girl to woman while being his mother. Grateful that he inspired me to push past every roadblock placed in my path. 

@youknowitszaydoe, I am so proud of you and I love you far beyond any words, actions, or material items, black man. I once called you sun because you shined like one but truthfully you out shine the sun, son. i pray that you receive and cherish every good and perfect thing God has for you. I pray you continue to pursue your purpose with passion. Most of all I pray that and abundance of love and light surround you and that despite life challenges you never cower in the face of adversity.
