As we march towards march, I want to recognize Women’s History Month, where we celebrate each other’s achievements in all aspects of life. I am quite astounded by a woman’s layers; like an onion, she reveals a depth embedded within her, thriving through adversities that may or may not be seen by the outside world.

I often find myself pondering; where does my boundary end, and where do others begin? There is an invisible yet palpable line within each of us dictating how we navigate our understanding of ourselves, and those around us.
