Lonely, traumatized and lost, Oprah still continued to pursue her dreams. Entering beauty contests and cancelled television programs were her trail to success until the age of 32 when the world started to pay close attention to a woman whose personal advocacy of improving lives and encouraging women to celebrate life has helped and inspired millions of people across nations.
As a television pioneer, producer, publisher, online leader, charity institution founder and director, she continues to use her genius and the power of media to satisfy her own thirst as a philanthropist and educator, thus making a difference in the lives of millions people everyday. One of the most striking and memorable of her shows that I witnessed was that of October in 2005. She pledged that she would do everything in her power to help take child molesters off the streets. She did this only in 48 hours after personally offering a $100,000.00 reward to anyone who would lead to the capture of the two fugitives on her Oprah's Child Predator Watch List. Once again, Oprah used her life's worst experiences for the good and admitted that the reward had been the best money she ever spent.
Oprah Winfrey's power does not come from being one of the richest women in the world, but it lies in her heart and connection with others that has remained unparalleled among all the celebrities we have come to know. She deserves and continues to be one of the world's most respected and admired public figures to date.
She is known to be very passionate and consistent in her duties as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees and balances the demands of being one of the most popular film stars today. Her affiliation with several charity institutions and other humanitarian work draw not just attention from many but inspiration as well to live not only for oneself. The adoption of a Cambodian and Ethiopian child proved her profound love for children and shows her deep commitment to her life's mission.
Oprah and Angelinaextremely different personalities yet they share striking similarities. They both exude strength, grace and truth. Dedicated and committed to fulfill tasks to cast sunlight to many lives around them. Their imperfect lives had made them perfect for God's purpose. Fierce advocates for life, demanding respect and attention whilst fulfilling their unique calling with a deep recognition of their true selvesthat for me is real feminine power.
