"If
you are waiting for
anybody else in your
experience to get straightened
out before you have
a happy experience you
will have a very long
wait."
Abraham-Hicks
"A
happy life is just a
string of happy moments.
But most people don't
allow the happy moment,
because they're so busy
trying to get a happy
life."

Half
the Sky lays out an agenda for
the world's women and three major
abuses: sex trafficking and forced
prostitution; gender-based violence
including honor killings and mass
rape; maternal mortality, which
needlessly claims one woman a minute.
We know there are many worthy causes
competing for attention in the world.
We focus on this one because this
kind of oppression feels transcendent
– and so does the opportunity.
Outsiders can truly make a difference.
So
let us be clear up front: We hope
to recruit you to join an incipient
movement to emancipate women and
fight global poverty by unlocking
women's power as economic catalysts.
It is a process that transforms
bubbly teenage girls from brothel
slaves into successful businesswomen.
You can help accelerate change if
you'll just open your heart and
join in.
