Eleanor Roosevelt-Gutsy Women

 

I shared this book Gutsy Women with our Wednesday Zoom group Women Together.. made up of international women. But last night was awake so picked up the book and dipped into the chapter on Advocates & Activists.. I found Eleanor Roosevelt and wow what a lady...but feels so sad that the present POTUS is trampling over all her good work.  We need more Gutsy Women! 

"Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength to stare it down"
Eleanor Roosevelt 

This brings a message that we are bigger than the fear inside of us ..we have an energy force of courage that can rise to any challenges.
