I started to post this in Off Topic - but it's really not Off Topic because it's an amazing message not just for women, but all of us, especially those of us who have been through something that may cause us to forget our true value and how amazing we truly are, especially considering what we have survived. We ARE strong, and we ARE capable - WE survived and we continue to grow into who we were meant to be.

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed that very much. I agree with her message very much so. I am strange. I am weird. I am a warrior!
Broken loveliness is the world's most common language. We all speak it so we might as well get fluent.
