For the woman I call Mom, the women I call sisters, the women I call daughter-in-law, the women I call aunts, the women I call cousins, the women I call friends, the women I’ve never met. For every woman. You are loved. 💛

You do know that International Women’s Day is not about celebrating women, right?
Can you help me understand? I believe if we’re celebrating rights, whether civil, social, political, or religious, and in different parts of our world,and the accomplishment of women, then that’s my celebration 🥰
I think your post was wonder and full of love for women. We have achieved a lot but today we should all sing “Bread and Roses” and remind all women -and all men- that we are far from gender equality.
I agree 💯! Thank you for this thoughtful response and support. I do recognize the distance we have to go. I just chose, in my post, to recognize women,…not our equality or lack thereof, but what achievements have made that have impacted my reality today. For my granddaughters,…may we keep bridging the gap. I appreciate you! 💕
Celebrating women! I’m glad to be a woman, and I celebrate YOU Karla. You are a hero to so many. You are kind and thoughtful. You always think of others first. You are fiercely strong, resilient even on your worst days, have a great sense of humor, and manage to stay optimistic in the worst of times. And as though that isn’t enough, you are beautiful, inside and out!
Yeah, I applaud you my friend. Even the “Fat Lady” is applauding you, which isn’t easy for her since I still have my foot in her mouth so she can’t sing. Lol!
You could be the poster girl for International Women’s Day.
Keep the faith Karla. Hugs to sweet Miss Finley. Ginger

Ginger, you’re one remarkable woman and I can’t thank you enough for your kind words and support. I try my best! I thank you for being part of my cheering section of support! I learn so much from you! I’ll keep the faith! Finn and I send love and hugs to you, too! 💕🥰💪🏻🙏🏻🦓
May this ladies heart light her journey with a strength and courage to clear those shadows for the love within us all. Have a beautiful day dear lady, and Fin too 😀❤️🙏🏽
Thank you, Mark. It’s been a great day to be alive. Stay blessed my friend! Finn sends love too! 💕🙏🏻💛💪🏻🦓
Thank you kind ladies, gratefully received and appreciated. I too am very grateful in suffering a coffee by the beach this morning while watching the locals enjoying the surf. And I think Fin would have loved the bush turkeys wandering around the barbecue areas trying to steal a morsel or two as well. Take care, much surf energy coming your way 🤣❤️🙏🏽
Mark, that just sounds miserable!! 🤔😂😂😆 thank you for suffering for us! I’m sure Finn would’ve taken “flight” quickly to say hi to the turkeys! I’m sipping my coffee and sending “waves”!! Hugs! 💕🙏🏻🤗
Haha, thank you. Have a great day guys 🤣❤️🙏🏽
You too!! 💕🙏🏻💛
Happy international women’s day to one very courageous woman❤️
Thank you, Mama K. 💕 I know the courage and boundaries, and ceilings you busted, in your life. I honor your generation. 🥰🙏🏻
How did you know about the ceiling
?
Hmm,…🤔💕 how many women, after 8 decades, can share they’ve busted the glass you have and have seen the changes? Thank you for paving the way! 🥰💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Happy International Women’s Day Karla and Happiness to you. I celebrate the women in my life: it is much richer with them in it —
Thank you, John. I appreciate you so much. ☺️
pleasure, Karla 🙂
Karla, celebrating the journey women have taken to get us where we are is one very important part of the day. The other half of the celebration is looking at what is yet to be done and holding up each other on the walk into the future… Happy international Women’s day!
Beautifully said, Val! I love the support we all share for one another! I feel the height we gain lifting one another! 💕💕💕🙏🏻
Wishing you the best today, and everyday. 💗
Thank you, Michele. Blessings, my friend. Never stop dancing and moving to words.💕💕💕

Women are simply amazing and deserve more than one day of recognition. You, my friend, are one of the strongest women I know.
Brad, what a beautiful and thoughtful thing to say. Thank you, my friend. 🥰
Karla, I celebrate you sweet friend. Your inner strength comes from a beautiful relationship with our loving Father! You are always in our prayers and on my heart ♥️🥰🙏🏻🤗
Thank you for your beautiful words and support, sweet Pam. That’s exactly how I found strength! I pray daily for it!

Happy Thursday (a.k.a. “Friday Eve” to those still working). That quote from Mother Teresa is always piercing to me, challenging me to be more of a bearer of Christ’s love for everyone I meet. The Anne Frank quote is new to me, and powerful. That young girl had a sense of eternity about her, one that is evident in these words. The ultimate truth of what she stated is fully realized only in the eternal realm.
Great post, Karla. As usual. Thanks! Nice hat, too!
Thank you, Tim! It took me longer to choose my quotes than to create the post on Canva. I appreciate your feedback. Anne Frank,…sense of eternity…yes! I always enjoy your words and thoughts, my friend. And thank you for the hat compliment! I’ve loved hats for many many years. I choose hats AND happiness! A great combo! Stay safe and blessed!
Nice to hear from you, my friend! Hope you had a wonderful International Women’s Day!🌺 Hope you are doing better and staying strong!
Sending hugs and some “girl power” your way! Take care, and wishing you all the best, Marcela.
I’ll take the girl power and hugs any day, Marcela! Thank you for reading and your kind thoughts and support! I’m taking it one day at a time…one hour at a time…some days, one minute at a time! I’ll have several hours of “minimal” pain, a couple of doozie hours, some nights great sleep, other nights, not much. It probably describes the life of most of us! I appreciate your well wishes and support, my friend.
“Created with credentials” I like that! I think I may have been created with confusion but lots of compassion!
Aww, Pam! Thank you for noticing that. 🥰 my thought is that being a child of God is the best credential I could obtain! You could throw in a dash of confusion with it, too. I know how compassionate you are! You’re a wonderful woman, my friend! Thank you for your support and cheerleading! 💕🙏🏻🥰
Little sister Happy International Women’s Day- I am late on that. 🙂
Thank you, brother! No worries at all!! 🤗🙏
Hugs & blessings to you – you powerhouse woman, you!
Aww 🥰,…I love you, sister! Much back to YOU!
I celebrate women like you, Karla. Why? Because you are courageous, positive, kind, and work hard. You are the Poster Woman.
Jennie, I thank you so much. You’re such an encouragement and inspiration to me. I feel that same way about you. Keep on keeping on! 💛💕❤️
I’m so glad! Yes, keep on keeping on.
Jennie, I was able to go visit my son and family in Abilene! I’m gearing up for another treatment and keeping on. Please take care! 💕🙏🏻
Hooray!!! 😍
❤️❤️❤️
Celebrate and then let’s push to truly break down these crazy barriers and injustices. ❤️. Sending you so many hugs ❤️
Yes!!!💛💛💛 sending so many hugs back! Thank you!💙💕❤️
Karla, your post reminds me of the special contributions I’ve received from my five daughters . . . three in Montana and two in Ohio. Blessings to your journey, and God’s will continue to lead.
Richard, how wonderful! I knew you had a big family. That blesses my heart so much! Blessings to you!
