I Have A Dream for All Women
Inspiration for the Women’s Marches, feminists, women entrepreneurs, women in sports
Today I have my own dream.
It is not as profound as Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream Speech’ but it is a dream as I passionately connect spiritually with the Women’s Marches across the USA and globe today. My pink spirit needs to share this dream because it has been embedded in my spirit for a long time and accentuated in 2017 when I took 110 women to the Women’s March on Washington and last year bringing 1,000 people together for a “CNY Women Rising March” with two other local feminists. This dream has also fueled my 24 year career of supporting, advocating and uniting women entrepreneurs in New York State.
Here is my Feminist dream:
I see a world where all females are treated equal to men.
I view our globe changing from green and blue only to radiating pink from empowered women.
I witness a day when my five nieces are paid an equal wage to my four nephews.
I notice women protecting young girls when predators are close.
I observe enthusiastic packed stadiums of spectators watching female athletes compete in sports.
I notice women buying from businesswomen first investing in a stronger financial circle for females.
I smell home cooked food of women sharing meals served with love for hungry females.
I see women hugging each other during times of defeat and celebration no matter their color, age, heritage, religion, sexual identification or economic status.
I hear soft whispers of prayers as women pray for their sisters living with a poor health diagnosis lifting them to wellbeing.
I see a government where 50% of elected officials are women lending a female perspective to law making.
I eavesdrop on motivational words of experienced career women to young professional females ensuring they ask for a higher salary and aid in propelling them higher in their careers.
I notice women sharing their personal #MeToo moments to protect the next generation.
I view only empowering, loving voices lifting up young girls as they develop.
I witness more women achieving higher goals in sports and the media sharing it with their viewers.
I watch women climb taller mountains with the peaks filled with women supporting each other’s climb.
I dream equality for all things woman.
It is possible.
In entrepreneurial, athletic and feminist spirit,
