Happy International Women's Day


Day 20


So everyone who knows me or who I have worked with, will tell you I am a very positive person.  I try to surround myself with like minded people.  You know the type.  They bring the sunshine in with them. You want to be around them all the time, because they make you feel good long after their presence has gone. You always make time for them, because you know you're in for a good time, no matter how dire the surroundings.

The one's I try to avoid,  are the ones who no matter how lovely the day,  they always make saying good morning sound like they've swallowed a cold cup of cat sick.  The amount of times 'I've left my phone in the other room'  just to have an excuse to get away from them bitching about their 1st world problems.  ( If you are a positive, upbeat person and have heard me say this phrase in the past, I have genuinely left my phone in the next room,  obviously).

But today I saw two pensioners walking hand in hand. One looked in her eighties, complete with all white hair.   The other,  maybe a decade younger.   At first, I thought because one had a limp, holding hands was a means of helping her a long,  then I thought maybe the one with a limp had learning difficulties.  As they sat at the bus stop.  The white haired lady placed a long lingering kiss on the other.  It was then, that I realised they were in fact lovers and lesbian lovers at that!  My point is, during this people watching session, being lovers was not part of the scenario I imagined......sometimes the picture you see is not the whole story.


That grumpy cow we try to avoid or the attention seeker we ignore or that colleague who feels the need to slag off another,  have some underlying reason why they act that way and we should try and find out what that reason is before we dismiss them.  After all,  us women should be a force to be reckoned with and helping each other to shine, makes us all glow, and how can you show them the light if you don't know what's causing the darkness!
