Yes, we are daughters, sisters, mothers, etc, etc... but beyond that, in society, we have allowed ourselves to become objects for nothing more than the sake of making money; we will 'dummy-down' so as to fit in with our male counterparts and not to intimidate; we will sacrifice our self-love to be loved and even worse, we give away our 'love' so willingly and freely that it becomes the norm and more so the oddity when you hold on to it dearly. For me, it is numbing when I see it and when I experience it, because no matter whether I end up alone for the rest of my life, I care not. For I will not settle, I will not accept less than I deserve from a man, from a job, from a life that could be everything I know I need. I am a woman.... strong, empowered, beautiful and completely happy with just being me. I am sorry if you feel that makes me full of myself or even worse, *gasp* lol borderline of being a feminist, but in my mind's eye- that makes me a force to be reckoned with. I say for anyone in my life- either be with me or for me, but don't be a door to me... I have dreams and goals... hop on or stay behind, just don't impede my stroll!
Beyond the men I had to leave, and to be blunt, the females in my life I have seen, I really wish I knew more women that were not content in giving it up to just live it up, not settling because the loneliness begins to press, not coming to terms with what you're given, but wrestling with what YOU WANT to be living.
Are you her? Does she reside within the woman that you are.... buried beneath a few layers down deep?? Let her out. What you dare to dream, can be.... step up... step out.... arrive with you.... be true!
You are a W-O-M-A-N.............................. woman.
