When we look at our social, political, economic and cultural scenario, women are either invisible or deliberately and historically excluded. This invisibility and exclusion is experienced in real time. The invisibility is in our lives and stories whether we recognize it or not. We invite you to share these stories, engage and understand that you are worthy of inclusion, being seen, heard and cared for on all levels of your glorious existence. Welcome to Mine Is A Comment.
