Hey, talk about empowerment, International Women's Day is coming up on March 8th. This year the United Nations (UN) is focusing on "Investing in Women and Girls". Donna invited me to a commemoration ceremony at the UN today. I think it'll be really interesting, especially since I've never really been to a UN ceremony before. Donna said, "Young women and girls in third world countries are more vulnerable to the impact of poverty than anyone else. They are not going to have access to education, healthcare, nutrition and jobs. That's why this year, the UN is focusing on having infrastructure in place in those countries for girls and young women."
I remembered the female GI telling me about women in Iraq and Afghanistan and how the GIs and non-profit organizations are helping them get basic needs like food and setting up computer centers, so children can learn. The stuff she told me isn't something you hear in the news--normal day-to-day stuff that goes on out in the war zone, where people are trying to rebuild their lives. I really admired her and I asked her what a guy like me can do to help. She introduced me to pet therapy, a technique that people are using in hospitals to help our wounded veterans. Maybe Kong would be good for that. I'll tell you more about it later. For me, it's really remarkable to be around women like her and Donna (and oh yeah, my mom!). They enrich me in so many ways and they're so positive that I'm really influenced by them. They make me feel like I can get up and do something too. Plus remember March 8th is just a day, but we have plenty of time to celebrate the whole of Women's History Month this month!
