Dear woman. Today is your day.

Dear Woman.

Today is your day.
Today we celebrate how far you have come.
Today we see the struggles you made; the battles you won.
Today we see the struggles ahead; the battles you continue to fight around the world. The peaceful fights - the fight for rights.
Today we honour your integrity; your love. It stems from the home and seeps out into your community and wafts around the world.
Today we see your potential. To rise up and shout out for those who do not have a voice.
Today we applaud you for doing two thirds of the world's work. While earning just 10 per cent of the world's wages.
Today we thank you for providing us with a home, a haven, a safe house. For filling it with real riches - your heart and your spirit.
Today we recognise the barriers you confront - in the workforce, on the land, in the home.
Today we support you.
Today we thank you.
Today we stand with you; we walk with you; we hold hands and march forward with you.

Dear Woman.
Today is your day.
