HISTORY OF WOMEN's DAY:
Women's Day has its roots in the early 20th-century labour movement. In 1908, women in New York protested for better working conditions, fair wages, and voting rights. In 1911, the first official International Women's Day was celebrated in countries like Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland. Since then, it has grown into a global movement advocating for women's rights.
(WOMEN's ROLE: 
( Please refer to my earlier articles on women )
Throughout history, countless women have made significant contributions across various fields, breaking barriers and inspiring future generations. While it's challenging to list every woman achiever, here are some notable figures from diverse domains. ( Ref: Internet Data )

An UMBRELLA mindset: Feeling calm in life's Rainy Moments

Rain is natural. Are we able to stop it?  Are we able to avoid going in rain?   Answer is NO ,   Rather we  CARRY AN UMBRELLA & Enjoy the moment .   Same way,  If unpredictable response comes from our loved-ones in life, what should we do?

Be Like Salt: Quietly Powerful, Gently Essential

 What a beautiful and wise thought......

People have habit of taking you for granted if you are always good to them. So never let anyone overuse you. At the same time, don’t be so absent that they forget your worth.   Like salt, which enhances flavour without overpowering, one's influence should be significant but not overwhelming.
