Hello Snackers! Happy Hump Day.
We have made it yet another week, and you are here reading another post. Thank you so much. In the spirit of Women's History Month, I would like to close the month of March by showing all of the beautiful women out there some love. We are all warriors in our own right, and the world needs to put some respect on it, amen! Let's get into it.
First and foremost, I have to begin giving my mother a shout-out. She is everything and then some, I would not be here to write this post without her womb bringing me earthside. She is my rock, my support, a love I will only experience in this lifetime. God knew she needed me, as much as I needed her. The gift of life, we provide. For those who are mothers and those who are not, regardless, nurturing is second nature. It will always be that warm hug that no one else can match when you need it most. Tell your mother, mother figure, your heavenly mother, and possibly estranged mother, you love them.
Okay, now mushy shit is over...because let's be FOR REAL women are a badass bunch. The strength of a goddess from the Roman empire, and the intuition that will slice through a lie, real fucking quick. A force to be reconned with when determined, and a unicorn all in one. We can turn it on and off, dress it up or down. When we ask you about something, our gut has already given the answer. Spare us, please! Clairvoyant if you ask me, a blessing and a curse. A blessing or a curse? What y'all think? We make a house a home with a magic wand that will never forget the little shit. We bear children and bounce back because we have to.
Scripture says, "He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord" (Proverbs 18:22). A KING is not complete without his Queen. Submission is not the backseat to delegation ladies, never forget that. Y'all are not ready for that conversation though! (Future post). Moving along, we menstruate and shed our uterine lining every month and still have to go to work. Now, that is some shit! You try working through cramps that feel like you are slowly dying a painful death at 3:00 pm on a Tuesday. We are sexy, but don't do too much or men will react. Be kind and soft, but not "too emotional". Be tough, but not masculine. Be a boss, but don't be "a bitch". Damned if we do, and damned if we don't. LITERALLY!
What the world wants from us, we may never know. Navigating through laws that have stripped our rights away in America, is crazy work. Advocating for our bodies, yet a man still takes the choice away. Please stop nutting inside of a woman without consent, condom or not...don't take that shit off if you cannot maintain self-control or it was not agreed upon previously. Another (future post). We are fucking tired. Exhausted in many ways but are and will always be the best thing that God created. Sure, I may be biased. But I know I am the shit, and so are you boo! We continue to fight for what is right, and the respect we deserve. Slap whoever says you are less than, maybe not, but figuratively!
Thank you to all of the beautiful women who support this blog. Again, I love you and appreciate you. Let's keep making history and do what we do best, be GREAT!
Great read. Thank you Shanise for sending me this. Would like to read more looking forward to the post about submission not being backseat to delegation. Kkay
