Mileva Maric
It was hard to choose between two women who inspired me. One standing for
courage and the other for wisdom. Depending what I am lacking or need at a
certain point in my life I am re-reading their biographies and gain my strength
and motivation from it.
Mileva Maric
They were first introduced to me by my father who I guess wanted to instill in
me from a young age and while we were going through the war that even as a
woman, I need to be courageous and that women can have this courage, even
at much more difficult times than what we were facing at the time in the 90s.
Indirectly, he also made sure that I develop a passion for history.
When it comes to wisdom his lesson was such that even if a woman is in the
shadow of a great man, in this case possibly the greatest minds of all or in a man’s
world she can excel and break barriers which are imposed either by the time in
which we live, the culture, environment or similar.
