Happy Women's Day

So back in 1910 or so, there was a movement started called Women's Day. The USA helped to make it an international holiday, and the Soviet Union gave it a lot of support. Over time it came to be celebrated on March 8.

So to all the women out there. Have a very wonderful day.

In an ever more connected world, I feel a need to serve as a world citizen, and to continue the relationships that I have built through my adventures. This is my story, and I write it for you.
