POINT-OF-VIEW: Happy Women's Month in Philippines

Last March 8, women around the globe celebrated the International Women's Month. Philippines on the other hand celebrate the month of March as Fire Prevention Month and Women's Month.
Women (and being a woman) are celebrated around the world-- their role, their contribution to the family and society, their mark on history and their importance-- when this day of the month comes.
Here's my previous Facebook posts for all the women/girls around the world:
It's so nice to be a girl-- to play styles with your hair, color your face with lipstick and make-up like the way you paint the town red in your presence with your friends and family, but the happier when you face the challenges with make up or not, doing the things that make you happy and the things you are passionate about.
It's so nice to wear clothes to be beautiful, but the happier it is when you wear what you are comfortable with.
It is so nice to be soft knowing that your have your loved-ones to help you out, and so nice to be brave and strong to defend your loved-ones in their weaknesses and darkest times.It is so nice to wear high heels, but the happier when you wear flats and you still feel tall and proud of being who you are.
It is so nice to be a true friend, a loyal best friend, an understanding girlfriend, a supportive sister, a loving wife, a nurturing mother and the best girl for the job in whatever profession or career you are taking.
You don't have to be too much of a feminist to be a real girl-- a real girl needs a man, not for money, not for power, not for confidence nor any kind of conveniences, but because she has a good heart that sees men not as evil creatures nor competition but people who can be her friend, her father, her brother, her teacher, her best friend, her lover. Just believe in girl power and leave the judgment about men alone to men, for they know themselves better.
It's so nice to be a girl especially if you love yourself for who you are, if you love people for who they are, and you live the moment the best way a girl can. Your role is hard to ignore in history. Maybe you haven't written yours yet, or maybe you are starting to make a mark on history today; but keep in mind you are here on earth to learn, no need to rush or impress people or the society.
In spite of all what other people think, how they judge you, it doesn't matter but your own happiness and the good things that you do. Yes, you are just a girl, but its the nicest feeling that a girl can have, to be her real lovable self. ‪#‎HappyWomensMonth
