It is true that over
time, women have been associated with terms like “weaker vessel”, “not good
enough”, etc.
In the same vein, it is
positive that in every society, the need for women cannot be over-emphasized. The
saying that “behind every successful man is a good woman” is not a myth. Read
and interpreted conversely, “behind every unsuccessful man is a bad woman”. The
meaning of success is objective by the way; and we shall postpone that
discussion for another day.
There is always a woman
somewhere, pressing some buttons, pulling some strands, supporting her man, and
urging him on; or being there herself. Women
are usually the reasons men want to live on and enjoy life or on the other
hand, get depressed and slump into a state of ill-thinking, self-pity; sadness
and depression (consider it in any way possible and you will agree with me)
A good consideration of
the impact of women worldwide will range from the impacts of Michelle Obama on
her husband, Barrack Obama, the First Black-American President of the U.S of A;
one of the world’s Super powers; to Condoleezza Rice; to Hillary Clinton; to
Cleopatra, the last Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt; to “Rose” (in the block-buster
award-winning movie “Titanic”); to Mary, Deborah, Delilah and Jezebel in the
Bible and to every woman world over.
It is pertinent
therefore that women understand their inevitable, non-substitutable role in
family and social development and nation building.
When this role is
comprehended and consciously played out by women, there would be greater development,
either for better, or worse. We however hope and pray that it would be in the affirmative.
The vision of this blog
is therefore aimed at assisting and supporting every diva, every lady, every
woman, to harness her inner strength and beauty with the ultimate goal of
pursuing nation development.
