« on: October 14, 2009, 08:08:45 pm »
Hi Ladies

I'm a board member of Positive Women in NZ, this is the Logo of our organisation, and I wanted to share it with you ladies.

It's in Maori...it can be translated two ways:

Women of Strength..or

Strong Women

and it applies to all of you here.





It's pronounce...WAH-HIN- *E.(as in bed)..the A in KAHA as in apple.

Hugs
Jan :-*

That's really beautiful, Jan. I knew you were doing that positive women thing, and they're very fortunate to have you!  Thanks for sharing that.  I don't feel strong every day.  I guess all we can do something is just keep going.  :-*
  Luv,
Betty

Thank you, Jan.  I've worn the Positive Women bracelet you gave me last year.  I only take it off when I knead bread.

Hi BT

There are days when I find it hard getting out of bed..but our inner strength gets us up and about, we have things to do, feed kids, look after grandkids, go to work, pay bills, clean house, the list just goes on  and don't forget it wasn't that long ago that you Graduated..I know that took alot out of you..but you did it...you are a Wahine Kaha.

Mum, good to hear you are still wearing the bracelet..thanks for that...big hugs to hubby adn the kids.

Hugs to you both

I could have sworn I posted in this thread the other day. ???  Must have been one of my not-so-strong days. :-\

Thanks for sharing that Jan. I like the circle of red ribbons - looks like a flower.

Don't you ever forget that you're a strong woman too - just look at how far you've come and how many other women you're helping now. :)

Hugs,
Ann

Very Nice!
