To celebrate women of substance March I have found a lovely quote by Mary Manin Morrissey. A lot of women let their past affect their present and future. Bear these words in mind and let go of the past:

Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?
