On this International Woman’s Day I offer my gratitude to Life for giving me the experience of living in the human form on this earth;
To my mother Prema Purao for being my hero, my role model;
To my father Narendra Purao for nurturing my human spirit;
To my guru Rishi Prabhakarji for giving me his divine grace and teaching me courage in sharing my life with everyone;
To my sisters for letting me BE MY own self; To my beloved Milind Purandare for helping me realize my completeness being just Me;
To my children for trusting me to be their mother;
To my friends for sharing happy and sad moments with me;
To to world for giving me the freedom to explore myself;
To nature for beauty;
To my lovely pets for surrounding me with their unconditional love;
To Facebook for connecting me with so many wonderful people;
To my blog for freedom of expressing my thoughts;
To everything and everyone in this life for giving me a beautiful, ever growing, ever learning experience on this planet earth.

I am not a woman without this experience.
I am not a human without this wonderful life.

May I be a human being before I am man or a woman!
May I nurture my human spirit of freedom, joy, love and experience beauty within and without.
May I celebrate every day as a Human Day celebrating the spirit of life.

For I am a Human Being first and then a Woman Being!
