A Woman's Love is Never Good Enough 2nd edition

Together we can always create something from nothing...

When a woman is passive, it is acceptable. However, when a woman speaks her mind and voices her opinion, that is a serious problem. A woman's voice should count, but sadly, when a woman speaks, people hear only what they want to hear; the rest falls on deaf ears. When things do not work out as planned, a woman has to step up to the plate to fix the problem that she had a solution for in the first place.

When a woman is independent, that's also a huge issue. I have noticed that an independent woman is spoken down to because she is fearless, free, and she would rather walk alone because she knows her worth. Ladies, there is nothing wrong with that!

We are Trailblazers!

Our Shero's used their brains to spark the flame.

We, as women, have to learn we cannot always do everything alone; coming together as one produces greatness as we lay the foundation together.

All women are Trailblazers who've put in the work, and as we all know, nothing comes easy. Therefore, the time and hard work we've invested is ours that we earned; because it most definitely wasn't given.

Trailblazers, we must own our lives, filter out what doesn't serve us, and stand firm for what we believe in.

Our voices are beautiful and powerful!

Our minds are creative and knowledgeable.

Yet time and time again, our needs and wants fell on deaf ears. We were told we weren't good enough. We were abused mentally, physically, and emotionally. We were told with nasty sarcastic remarks at times, and here and there may be a laugh that made the insult worse; "It would be your word against mine, and guess who they are going believe? Not you."

One by one we took a chance to speak up, but our voices weren't heard. They tried to make us feel threatened; as if we were going to lay down and be stepped on like shit on the bottom of their shoe. We interrupted their comfort zone and showed them their time was up!

Their time of talking and belittling us this way has expired. They tried, but they failed to realize we are strong and we will never give up.

Their time of thinking they can touch us inappropriately and we will keep quiet has expired. No! We will rise up and bring the world to its feet. Trust me... We will be seen and heard!

Their time of trying to break us down has expired. No! We can move mountains!

Their time of pointing their fingers at us and putting F.E.A.R (False Evidence Appearing Real) into our minds by making us believe it is our fault has expired. No! It is not our fault. It never was!

Their time of nasty insults has expired.

Their time of preying off vulnerable women who have to "make a deal" to get a higher position they earned has expired. No! Your "man"ipulation has no effect. We, as women, have full ownership of our minds, bodies, and souls.

Why should a woman tear herself down to make a man feel like a man? Ladies, it is not our duty to feed a man's ego and to curb his insecurities.

Together we will make a significant change! There are no ifs ands or buts about it. We are not lacking anything, because as women we can always create something from nothing.

Ladies, it is time to take back what's been ours all along. We, as women, are the backbone that keeps the world turning. We are the voices that will be respected. Each step we make will forever be remembered. We are here to empower each other as we walk through this journey we call life together.

We shouldn't let anyone or anything divide us because as one, we are a powerful source. We are the common denominator; it is in our flesh, blood, and soul. We have a fire under our feet. Each step we take is carving out the path for our young ladies who follow, and we must remember that we need to practice self-acceptance and self-love.

No, you are not perfect. What's important is that you know your self-worth and you are happy; and that's all that matters. You now know that you should never underestimate your ability to create your own happiness.
