Women, you are earth! You are strong! You are beautiful! Why do you tear each other down? Draw your strength from the each other. Muster up and bond together.
No wonder men have the upper hand! We cannot stand in a united front if we cannot set aside our pride and our own insecurities. Break those walls between us. Speak up against how we are portrayed in the media, objectified by men, we must speak our thoughts and show we have minds not only breasts. I watch as we let the opinions of society and the media corrupt us and infiltrate our own self image… this leads so quickly to the judgment of others rather than the encouragement of a healthy mindset as well as body. Curves are beautiful. You girls who think you’re bean poles are beautiful as well. Why must we all look alike? Why must we all be the cookie cutter woman, the boxed Barbie, a dime a dozen? NO! Rebel from that, be your own woman! You have your own ideas, passions, pet peeves, interests, etc. so explore them, talk about them, pursue them. To be comfortable in your own skin requires you to have more than just a focus on having your appearances in order, you must be a woman of substance, and we all can be, it just takes time to delve into yourself and discover who you can be, the talents and passions that you have, as well as what trips you up in life. Take the time to get to know yourself and your place in the world around you… then you will thrive and have something to add to your environment, to you relationships, wisdom to pass on. You can make an impact!
But how do we stand united when we are so quick to rip each other down, to criticize, to call demeaning names, to bicker… Stop the cattiness. Find harmony. Raise our girls with beauty, grace, and love; be an encouragement rather than a hindrance. Go out and purposefully live to lift others up, find the beauty in each other, and be a blessing rather than a thorn.
