GoyMon's Chamber: Happy Women's Month! : )

Unlike the older days, women of today are more empowered, based on my perspective. They are actually enjoying privileges that were impossible for them to attain during those times. But still, there are issues that need to be addressed. There are still strong clamor to prosper and push GENDER EQUALITY into a REALITY. Big isssue as it seems, but just like our alphabet, the solution is as easy as ABC.

1. ACKNOWLEDGE - All of us are created equal. Not one specie is superior to the other. Just like that, men and women have different issues and conflict that are experiencing. Therefore, we must ACKNOWLEDGE that we have different perspective and solutions to the conflict that need to be addressed. Respecting each other's opinion and rights denounces all the conflict.

2. BELIEVE - Believe in the power that you can do all great things, whether you are a MAN or a WOMAN. God created all of us equal, with unique talents and skills. We must know ours, and make it a point that you will use the God-given gift not only for ourselves, but also for the benefit of others. Share. Helping others is a way of life. BELIEVE in yourself. You can do it.

3. CARE - It's good that you care about your family, your loved one's, other people. But, most importantly, you need to take CARE of yourself. It is important for us to know that even we are binded by relationships, we still need to find time to focus on ourselves and respect each other's individuality.

Women of today are more versatile. They can do things that were stereotyped for men alone. They are successful in their chosen field - from being a respected public official; high-ranked employee; top-caliber artists up to the humblest yet very rewarding profession of being a mother - women now are progressive.

Let us find time to celebrate with them, not only during this month, but everyday. Take time to thank all of the women that plays important role in your lives - you mother, grandma, aunt, sister, cousins and nieces- from your teachers, mentors, employers and your friends. Happy Women's Month to all of you!

My FRIENDS and EVERYTHING!
