International Women’s Day – Let Me Be Me

photo of Janeane Davis and the words "International Women's Day, hear me be me."

Today is International Women’s Day and almost everyone alive has heard the expression, “I am woman, hear me roar.”  That expression will be heard over and over and over again.

I am not going to use that expression. Instead, I am going to say several other things such as:

  • I am a woman, hear me speak
  • I am a woman hear me cry
  • I am a woman hear me laugh
  • I am a woman watch me dance
  • I am a woman watch me run
  • I am a woman watch me work
  • I am a woman let me live
  • I am a woman let me love
  • I am a woman let me shine

I have always loved being a woman. As the mother of three daughters, one son, and the wife of one man. I have many roles and jobs as a woman. I want women around the world to have one of my most precious gifts. That is the gift of just being themselves.

On this day dedicated to celebrating women, let’s celebrate. Rejoice in what we have done, and what we will do in the future. I want to celebrate the sheer joy and privilege of being a woman who can be who she wants to be and live the life she wants to live.

There are places around the United States where I live and around the world where women are not permitted to be themselves. Instead must be what their parents want, what their husbands want, or what their religious leaders want. Just the simple joy of being able to be me, Janeane Michelle James Davis is a treat, a gift, and a wonderful blessing.

I realize and understand that today many people are celebrating women. They are recognizing female heroes, newsmakers, celebrities, and shining stars all around the world. I wish to take nothing away from those celebrations. I too admire the great accomplishments of women far and near. I too want women to continue to strive for and reach great heights of excellence and accomplishments.

At the same time, I want to celebrate and make known the value of women who are being themselves. Women who are being single, married, with children, and without. Women who live their lives every day want the joy, the pleasure, and all that comes with being a woman. I want people the world over to understand that being a woman, a woman who lives her life, who claims her place in the world is a person to be admired, respected, and copied.  I am a woman. I am celebrating International Women’s Day by being proud to be a woman, by being proud to be me.

  1. Janeane, thank you for taking the time out to celebrate womanhood. Often times WE, forgot about US because we are so busy being everything to everybody. But … that is what makes us great!
