I am blessed to have friends who are strong, independent women, and this year they gave me birthday presents about other strong, independent women.
I received a Ruth Bader Ginsburg mug and two RBG pins, a book of paintings by Emily Carr and a beautiful book of photos of Michelle Obama—Chasing Light by Amanda Lucidon.
At the beginning of the Obama book, Congressman John Lewis writes: “Michelle Obama, with dignity, grace and respect, has taught and inspired all of us to chase what is good, right and just. Through her life’s commitment and dedication, she is the embodiment of a powerful light.”
