“You are the light of the world and no one wants to live in darkness.” - Happy International Women’s Day from Yordano

Yordanos, currently doing our Risers programme at Crystal Palace Mkt, has written a blog for International Woman’s Day. She is a very impressive young woman, also part of @compasscollect theatre charity, loves writing, and is challenging herself to do public speaking!!!

Happy International Women's Day

Today is a blessed day, one in which I am thanking all the wonderful women. The Queens of the world. This is the day to celebrate our freedom of equality. Let us enjoy it. I would love to see every single woman wearing a purple dress, the colour of loyalty and self-respect.

You make me proud to be a woman. You brought me to this world, with lots of pain giving me life and taking care of me like a small fragile beautiful flower. Bringing me up with your love. That no amount of money is worthy of. Even when you felt you had crashed into a mountain, your spirit stayed strong. I am proud of you.

Woman is mother,

Woman is sister,

Woman is love,

Woman is wife,

Look after yourself as a beautiful flower because you are the most beautiful in the world. You turn on colourful lights inside the flower, then people visit to enjoy the view, because you are the light of the world, and no one wants to live in darkness.

You are beautiful. From now I will say, “you are strong”, not because you are not pretty, but because you are so much more than that. Happy International Women's Day, with love and warmth, wishing you all the happiness.
