Soul Sisters Contest by Womensweb and Zivame
This Women’s Web – Zivame.com contest is all about the power of friendships! Celebrate a woman who’s been a friend, an ally, who means the world to you.
Girlfriend. Women who’ve struck by you through thick and thin. Ally at the office. Buddy. Shoulder to cry on. Childhood playmate. BFF. Confidante at college. Fellow rebel. Diva. Girl’s night out partner. Soul Sister.
Whatever you call her and whether you call her everyday or once in a month – it doesn’t matter. What matters is who she is to you, and how you feel about her.
As part of this contest, blog about a woman (or many) whose friendship is precious to you. Tell her that what she means to you, and how much you value her friendship. Share a story about what makes your friendship tick – funny, sad, memorable, quirky – let the world know what you and your soul sister have been up to!
UPDATE: CONTEST CLOSED.

I wanted to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting 'win' moments.
My daughter turned eight years old in January, and among the various gifts she received from friends and family was an absolutely beautiful personal journal for self-growth. A few days ago, she was exploring the pages when she found a section for writing a letter to her future self. She found this intriguing and began jotting down her thoughts animatedly.
My curiosity piqued and she could sense it immediately. She assured me that she would show me the letter soon, and lo behold, she kept her word.
I glanced at her words, expecting to see a mention of her parents in the first sentence. But, to my utter delight, the first thing she had written about was her AMBITION. Yes, the caps here are intentional because I want to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting ‘win’ moments.
Uorfi Javed has been making waves through social media, and is often the target of trolls. So who and what exactly is this intriguing young woman?
Uorfi Javed (no relation to Javed Akhtar) is a name that crops up in my news feeds every now and again. It is usually because she got trolled for being in some or other ‘daring’ outfit and then posting those images on social media. If I were asked, I would not be able to name a single other reason why she is famous. I am told that she is an actor but I would have no frankly no clue about her body of work (pun wholly unintended).
So is Urfi Javed (or Uorfi Javed as she prefers) famous only for being famous? How does she impact the cause of feminism by permitting herself to be objectified, trolled, reviled?
