Before I start this, I clearly include ALL women in this.
Each year IWD is given a theme, which often relates to contemporary events, trends and struggles. This year the focus is on ‘breaking the bias‘. Which is so cool, and I do wonder if it has something to do with the hatred that the trans community has been experiencing.
As I was writing:

Also, I freaking just hate Rowling. Not even sorry, I just hate her. She gives women every a bad name.
What I would like to know is, who are your inspirational women? #IWD2022
I would say that I am inspired by a lot of the women in my family. In all honesty (mainly my mums side). My great grandfather, missed a part of her leg from polio, but not one ever considered her disabled. She had a child out of wedlock and never pretended her was her “younger” brother. My grandmother taught me about Reiki, Tarot meditation. She travelled overseas and backpacked by herself, in her 50’s and helped people with AIDS/HIV. My mum, brought up my brother and I with pretty much no help from my Dad.
Every other I admire, is just a little bit extra.
And I know myself doing “Twitter” isn’t enough.
Also I got my booster done, and I am doing well! My arm hurts like a …
International Museum Day is an international day held annually on or around 18 May, coordinated by the International Council of Museums. The event highlights a specific theme which changes every year to reflect the basis of the international museum community’s preoccupations.
#IMD2020
The theme is Museums for Equality: Diversity and Inclusion.
Although, most, if not all Museums are shut, only for a moment. Did you know that, for the moment, you can still virtually see Museums! Some of them extremely well known! So now you have no excuse to see some of the most famous Museums in the world!
The British Museum – Egyptian Sculpture Gallery
Amsterdam – Van Gogh Museum
Paris – The Lourve Museum
London – The Charles Dickens Museum
A lot of museums are now asking for donations, so that they can reopen when they are allowed. On my Discord channel. We’re discussing about more book or author related Museums. The Charles Dickens museum, as an example. Requires 30,000 POUNDS A MONTH to cover everything.
Well, in Australia it is.
Annually, August the 10th is World Lion Day.
I’ll list a couple of facts, but the King of the…Jungle?

Who are the United Nations?
The United Nations is an International organisation which was founded in 1945. Just after World War II, to found International Peace.
Due to the powers vested in its Charter and its unique international character, the United Nations can take action on the issues confronting humanity in the 21st century, such as peace and security, climate change, sustainable development, human rights, disarmament, terrorism, humanitarian and health emergencies, gender equality, governance, food production, and more.
Why United Nations DAY
UN Day marks the anniversary of the entry into force in 1945 of the UN Charter. With the ratification of this founding document by the majority of its signatories, including the five permanent members of the Security Council, the United Nations officially came into being.
24 October has been celebrated as United Nations Day since 1948. In 1971, the United Nations General Assembly recommended that the day be observed by as a public holiday.

So I’ve swapped around my Share Your World post to Friday instead so we can talk about me…Nah, just kidding…Just women:
Now I just want to start off with saying “Calm Down…There is an International’s Men’s Day…November the 19th…Which is on a Monday this year….
I may also be using a lot of gif of women I admire in this post
What does it mean to me to be a “Woman”
(The Queen of course!)
Too me being a women means to be powerful and by powerful I don’t mean to have power over other people. It’s about the power of believing yourself. It’s the power of your convictions and morals and sticking to them. Whether that is to sing loudly from the top of your lungs or whether to just march with others. When the whole world is against you.
Women bring up other Women, Queens make other Queens…Even when you don’t agree…Far too much I see girls trying to bring women down.
A woman who can laugh at herself, when she’s at her most beautiful, but still is not “feeling it”.
Women who can cry…because they know that crying doesn’t make them weak.
Women move their bodies like no one is watching, even when the world is…and they LOVE it! They don’t judge others for how they move either.
(Ciara as Janet Jackson BET Awards)
A women will still have insecurities…Whether that be her body, her work, has she really go it all…But she doesn’t hurt the others around her still. She recognises that her “faults” are not to be put on others.
That no matter how hard it may get…Women don’t quit and we keep remembering to have fun!
Here’s to the Queens…May we know them…May we raise them…

Today is officially Internationals Women’s Day…I say officially because I got all confused last week when people starting talking about “World Book Day” every where has different different dates. So I thought that I had better double check. Seems like today is the official day.
Every year there is also a theme for that year, this year the theme is #BeBoldForChange.
International Women’s Day: #BeBoldForChange website
How will you be Bold for a Change?
This is a great day to reflect and take a look at those women who we admire and why we admire them. Too take a look at ourselves and question what we can do to make the lives of others better. Not just women, but for all. I think considering the type of people who are in charge of running our countries, not just the orange Oompa Loompa, we NEED to take a long hard look at ourselves and see what we’ve become.

Which women do you admire and why?
All my ladies, where you be at?! Today is the day to celebrate and support the beauty that is you! The greatness that is your smartness, the awesome person that you are.
Today is also the day to get inspire and see how you can also help support and celebrate other women. Not just the other women in the your life, but those women who are not so lucky. How will you mark today?
One of the first places that I would suggest taking a look at, to help you get inspired or is you are asking yourself “What can I do?” Have a look at the website International Womens Day … What can you do?! One of the great functions about this website is that you can look at your country and state and see what events they have.
Also look for the hashtag #PledgeforParity

Siblings Day was created by Claudia Evart, a freelance paralegal from Manhattan, NY. Evart started the day after losing both her sister at an early age. It is a day of celebration and recognition for brothers and sisters around the world.
I am a big sister and I only have one little brother and this video cracks me up, because it is so true! I miss my little brother sometimes, he lives interstate and sometimes I just miss him terribly, but than other times I think sometimes it’s the distance that makes us closer.
