"Women we must unite"

We are strong, proud, intelligent, a force not to mess with, so why do we constantly divide ourselves from each other? Why do we lower ourselves by believing what is not true. We were all born to fly, to soar gracefully as an eagle and tall, standing proud with roots deep in the soil as a mighty Redwood tree. We are all designed for more, so why do we settle for less. 

We walk with heavy shoulders, holding a crowded mind of negative assumptions. 

I feel sad when I hear women degrading their wisdom by speaking negative of each other, of ideas that don't matter, problems that don't exist. 

Women we must unite. Stand up with your sisters and unite. Throw away the useless mess of garbage that is clogging our minds. God made us all perfect and beautiful, with eyes to see, mouths to speak and hearts to feel. If we truly love ourselves, just the way we are, TODAY, we will be able to love others. 

I'm writing this all down because I am tried of hearing and feeling all the judgement...it is a waist of precious time. I am tired of seeing intelligent women around me not fulfill their full potiential, not try. We give birth to generations. We are the spiritual leaders and teachers of our children. We feed our families and nurish patience, creativity and compassion, so why can't we shed the idea of competition. I'm not better then you and you are not better then me, we are on the same plain, lying under the same sky, created by the same God. 
But before we can truly come together, we must believe it for ourselves. 

Don't get me wrong I have danced down the street of assumption and filled my mind with unnecessary thoughts that only have brought me closer to depression. I have believed verbal attacks and thrown many back that only hurt yet I am fighting everyday to be different. A heavy ache is lifted when you release the tangle of assumption. The days are fuller, the lights seem to always be green and your favorite song is played on the radio right when you need it. Try it, you'll see. If we have balance in our lives the Universe is able to connect with us. The Universe is waiting. If we are positive, positive things happen. It is the cycle of life. What you give comes back. 

As an artist I see the world as my canvas and people as my portrait. I am constantly inspired as I walk down the streets of life, the variety, the fun so-called "imperfections" that keep us different, the billions of colors, all keeping me focused on the beauty that surrounds us all. It's there, we just need to change the way we view it. 

This is my first blog, sent out to the world to read. I have had so many people misread me, especially other women. Is it my face, the way I stand or what I say or don't say, I don't know. I guess I just want people to take a moment to see me or maybe even want to know me before so quickly jumping to announce who I am, when the reality is they know nothing of me. 

Thank you for reading my blog and I look forward to reading your comments on my rambling. :)
