Thursday Thoughts...

“She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted." 

Mitch McConnell

I bet it was NEVER his intention to have what he no doubt regarded as a putdown, a putting-her-in-her-place statement, turned around to become such a powerful statement for women and their rights.

I love these words and what they reflect. Of the story they tell of women who keep putting up with rubbish, with nonsense, with criticism, with judgement, with harassment, with belittling, with rejection, with all of the things that happen to women in the workplace and elsewhere, and who win.

Women who persist and who come out on top. Who become stronger, successful and fabulous.

It is so nice to look at some words, turn them around and see what they say that way...

    1. Fabulous isn’t it Mo when we can capture all of that in an image, unknowingly, yet it shines forth. Thanks!
