Stand Tall. Be True.

I am a woman with flaws, but all those imperfections make me perfect in my own way.

I am a strong woman but I too need the strength of others when I am weak.

I am a woman who carries with me, my greatest asset: my smile. But I too need the tears from cheeks wiped away when my smile has faded.

I am a woman who walks with my head held high, even when the world tries to break me down, and even then I might need some encouragement to keep walking.

I am a woman who laughs. A woman who cries. A woman who prays. A woman who believes. A woman who searches. A woman who hopes. A woman who stumbles. A woman who triumphs. And a woman who makes mistakes. A woman who never gives up. I would like to think that through it all, I am a woman who lives.

But just like any other woman, I am often insulted and persecuted. Just like any other woman, there are stones thrown my way too many times. There are people who try to push me down in order to heighten themselves. Today though, I have this to say to them: I will not be broken. I will not allow my weaknesses to triumph. I will not be shattered by insults. I will not be deterred by stones in my path. I will not stumble. I will continue on my God given journey with my head held high, because He gives me strength daily. I am a woman. Strong, brave and true. I am a woman whose Spirit cannot be destroyed. And you are too. Woman or man, no one can crush your Soul, unless you allow them to. Do not allow them.

Stand tall.
Be true.

Take Care
