You are so much more than you believe yourself to be. Don't limit yourself to the idea that you're a girl so you're fragile, you're weak, you need protecting. That is not true. We are trapped within the metaphor of caterpillars morphing into butterflies and we are expected to find that complimentary. But we are not butterflies, we are not delicate flowers or imprisoned princesses. We are not damsels in distress.
We are galaxies, we are comets, we are hurricanes. We are strong and powerful. We are overwhelming.
We are beautiful
We were born with the wings of dragons.
And its time for us to take flight.
