The challenge for the week is to be unapologetically present!

"You have the opportunity to show grace to self, to others, to both, if that is what is called for. In addition, we have the option to allow situations to hinder our opportunities for growth. The great thing about life is that we have the right to make what others will call 'bad' decisions. We can be unapologetically present, have our voices heard, learn through very public means, and take up space. We have the right to be an active participant in life. And yes, you even have the option to live your life in a box, where you might feel 'safer' but potentially at the cost of living a life where much of it is happening without you. It is okay for your vision to be your own; it is okay if that vision does not generate lots of support. That does not make your vision any less important or valid."

Work was done here. The blanket was shuffled; the pillow studied, held, and tossed aside. There was reflection, contemplation, and expression. Frustrations voiced; fears expressed; laughter shared. This is therapy.

Women’s History Month is a celebration of women’s contributions to history, culture and society and has been observed annually in the month of March in the United States since 1987. Women’s History Month 2023 will take place from Wednesday, March 1 - Friday, March 31, 2023.

Why Do We Celebrate Women’s History Month?

Women’s History Month is a dedicated month to reflect on the often-overlooked contributions of women to United States history. From Abigail Adams to Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth to Rosa Parks, the timeline of women’s history milestones stretches back to the founding of the United States.

The actual celebration of Women’s History Month grew out of a weeklong celebration of women’s contributions to culture, history and society organized by the school district of Sonoma, California, in 1978. Presentations were given at dozens of schools, hundreds of students participated in a “Real Woman” essay contest and a parade was held in downtown Santa Rosa.

A few years later, the idea caught on within communities, school districts and organizations across the country. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter issued the first presidential proclamation declaring the week of March 8 as National Women’s History Week. The U.S. Congress followed suit the next year, passing a resolution establishing a national celebration. Six years later, the National Women’s History Project successfully petitioned Congress to expand the event to the entire month of March.

Women's History Month Theme 2023

The National Women's History Alliance designates a yearly theme for Women's History Month. The 2023 theme is "Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories." This theme recognizes "women, past and present, who have been active in all forms of media and storytelling including print, radio, TV, stage, screen, blogs, podcasts, news, and social media."
History.com has information on Women's History Month plus a great clip that is only 1:19 minutes long.
