Happy International Women’s Day!

Interestingly enough, it’s one of those days that are no longer celebrated in Croatia, ever since we came out of socialism at the end of 80s.

I wonder what that says about capitalism we live in today…

But that’s not a topic for a day like today.

I didn’t talk much about the strange year I had last year but one thing was very obvious – all the female support I received. Women are great!

I’m very happy to be one and I do feel that female  strength and solidarity need to be celebrated so I’m wishing you all a very happy day today!

May it be filled with sunshine and flowers! (carnations used to be the symbol of that day way back when I was a child)

    Happy International’s Women’s Day to you Ines! I agree women’s strength and solidarity should be celebrated. There is way too much emphasis on division.

    Have a great Sunday.

    Funny how there’s really no time for a women’s day in capitalism, I didn’t think of it that way before… Belated happy women’s day to us 🙂

      I didn’t think about it either until I started writing the post and then the change just hit me.

    Same to you, Ines! Since I struck out of my own three years ago, I have made some great new female friends, for whom I am very grateful. Women are great, as you say!

      Oops, too ‘great’s in one short comment. Still, arguably greatness bears repetition…
