March is Women's History Month! Well as a woman...go figure...every month to me is in celebration. Here's why! We are a phenomenal breed! I love being a woman...with the exception of "happy time", I have no complaints. More than ever women are being recognized for their contributions to society. Guess what...you don't have to be "famous" to be recognized for your beauty, your intelligence, your sexiness, your POWER!
One of my sisters is very self conscious when it comes to being in public. There's absolutely nothing wrong with her, but she continually thinks about people looking at her. This makes her feel uncomfortable, unsure and anxious. Finally I said to her, "of course they are looking at you...you're famous". I said "stuff like that doesn't bother me because I don't care about what people think of me and you shouldn't either". Well that's easier said than done as I look at things from her point of view.
There will always be things in our lives that make us feel unsure about things. Life is made up of many puzzle pieces and in order to get a full picture of who we truly are, we must be willing to put the pieces together. Yes...there will be that moment when you try to force a piece of the puzzle to fit...and it won't because it doesn't go there.
This reminds me of when I wanted so badly to fix my marriage and I would've done just about anything to make that piece of the puzzle fit. Well clearly that piece didn't work out. The reason why it didn't work out is because that wasn't the puzzle I should've been working on. I had to work on me. It was my time!
I've been in a relationship since I was thirteen years old. I am forty-four now! That's alot of years of not being myself...putting everyone before myself...and not knowing myself. That was the life I chose at the time because I was looking for validation of who I am. Well I've found her!! It took alot of years, tears, disappointments, love and laughs to get here..but hunty I have ARRIVED! Take it or leave it. One of the realest posts I've ever posted on social media reads "once you have a taste of my energy you will always be thirsty". I promise that's all me and the truth! If nobody ever loves me again...I've found out that my love of self is what matters most! Happy Women's History Month! Go make your own legacy!!
