The end of a topic

All of the blogs on this page have a thread connecting them. They all (well expect one) have something to do with famous British women.

Why British women? The first news article I read after being given this assignment was the one on the “Iron lady”. It inspired me, and I thought why not just blog about famous British women.

Women are not just powerful or influential as politicians, or queens. Models, feminists, and journalists are just some of the examples how women make a difference in this world. Despite the common held belief that being a woman has its disadvantages in a mainly male dominated society, the people written about in this blog show the opposite.

Sometimes it may mean having to put up with criticism for one’s choice or clothes, words, and actions; but times change.  People adapt themselves to new ideas, what once was seen as scandalous can soon become the norm (take Lennox and suits).  If one is strong enough, and brave enough to stand tall and continue to fight for what one believes in, nothing is impossible.

Yes, it all sounds very cliché. Not always does a new idea manage to triumph the odds working against it. Sometimes one just has to admit defeat. The idea that it is possible to make a difference in this world, no matter who you are, is comforting and encouraging. 

Is the world not a nicer place if you believe that maybe one day you can be the one to create a new fashion trend, or even bring peace to turmoil?  The point is that what you do does not have to make a global impact for it to make a difference in this world. Even just saying “hello” to someone can brighten up their day.
