Education for Women

Women have come a long way to achieve empowerment through education. In the initial stages, it was an uphill battle for them to be recognized as good enough to compete with their male counterparts. 

Now that they have shown their mettle in every aspect of educational excellence, I must say that women are taken to be equal partners to build world economies and be leaders in their chosen professions.

They have earned the respect as a gender who can counter challenges, and at the same time continue in the pro-creation of mankind.

Women now juggle their duties as moms, wives, co-workers, and friends, and still stand out as the person most needed in a relationship. They nurture heart and soul in everything they do.

There is an in-built strength surrounding women. They have the resources needed to build better lives for those around them.

Women who are educated are healthier and contribute to healthy lives. They are more productive and learn to participate in societal needs for the betterment of a country as a whole. They are more inclined to racial integration and teach their young ways to nurture and fulfill their own dreams.

Education broadens minds.

So, here's to women who have empowered themselves with knowledge by creating a more literate society in their communities and the world over.

Special news to share with you:

My family and I are delighted that our daughter, Marissa, a litigation lawyer by profession, has passed her postgraduate studies and achieved her Masters with flying colors.

In spite of all the hurdles she underwent, with the heavy workload as a lawyer, online classes (during the pandemic), and attending night classes (post-pandemic), she strived till the end to achieve her dreams. She worked hard to meet her obligations and we are so proud of her achievements to date.

As a young girl, her dream was to study at Oxford. Even though she didn't get to study in her dream institution, she graduated from Bristol University in the UK after completing a twinning program here.

I believe that she is a very headstrong woman who chose to enrich herself with educational qualifications to counter the extremely competitive environment of a still-growing world. She wanted to have an edge over the competition.

We wish you, Marissa, all the best in your next path to educational excellence. We know that you will now set your sights higher and our blessings are forever with you.

A Quote

Education is inoculation against disruption. As you learn and study more, you'll know more about your craft and understand how the masters lift their games. And once you do that, you'll be able to deliver more value to your marketplace. - Robin Sharma

This book is a well-written fast read, but woah...it is one of those books that sort of punches you in the heart but makes you want to keep reading. Literary fiction at its best, with overarching points about survival - what it means - and who is in control of what happens next. The entire story reminded me of a Dorothea Lange picture - the harshness of the drought, poverty, and such beautifully illustrative language. A must-read! 

It is a book you won't want to miss reading.
