Education and Empowerment

"No matter where you are in life inspire and empower the women around you. Success is never reached alone. Wisdom and wealth are sweeter shared." -- Mizzfit

Thank you for joining us this week. We have been M.I.A. for a while but a lot of great things have been happening and in the weeks to come you will hear about all our goals and accomplishments. This week I would like to talk about empowerment and education. Someone once wrote, "Education is one of the most important means of empowering women with the knowledge, skills and self-confidence necessary to participate fully in the development process." 

For the women out there that were blessed enough to receive the gift of education we are charged to help uplift and educate another. It can just be by simply teaching someone how to read, how to spell their names, encouraging them to take the step towards learning. We have to empower one another. The goal is not to do it so we can brag about it... the goal is to genuinely help someone and inspire change. 

Success is never reached alone. We have to come together, stop ostracizing individuals because of their educational background, accept that you're not better than them but that you can bring them along with you on this journey. If you can help someone as you pass by, help them. In order for a women to participate in the development of a society or community they have to be confident, self aware and armed with knowledge.  So let us inspire and empower the women and children in and around our communities.
