hello girls:))..whether married,dating or in a relationship or single!you are still a jewel,a precious stone,a priceless gift,that initial seed without which humanity wouldn't be in existence!yes your place is every where not just confined somewhere,you are limitless,you can go beyond the sky and do exceedingly greater and abundant things.

my dad once told me,that the only way i would earn respect was if i learned to stand tall,defend my rights and above all have belief in myself that i can make it,and that this way i will not be looked down at but looked up to because i will be a solution to a problem,the missing link to that puzzle.

as women we can do better in all places and all things.we just need the platform to stage the show,we can run the world,we got to have the drive and know our value.whether in the political world,the social arena,the economic field,we can lead,we just don't have to be sidelined into thinking some places are not for us.

even on top of the world we can still impact positively,have thriving families.the argument is that when we become powerful we forget our place,families,we become disrespectful to husbands which i think is all channeled at narrowing the chances of us being on the top,it's a way of silencing us.
we got to fight our through,only then shall our impact be felt and the world will cherish and embrace our efforts.

Thank you for posting this. I hope that everyone on PulseWire reads this powerful reminder. If we don't respect ourselves, how can we expect others to respect us? So as you said so eloquently, let's all stand tall, build each other up and create the world we want to live in

Thanks again. Your enthusiasm and strength are such deeply inspiring gifts.

Much love,
Janice

Hello Janice,you are most welcome and from my heart am humbled yet strengthened with your words.yes indeed,we got to stand and it will not just take one continent,nation,or race,it will take all of us to make it a reality and not just some kind of fantasy
when it appears difficult,it's only because the effort isn't balanced,but i believe together we can push for this change and actually register success
Big love and hugs too

Hi Patricia,

I have read with interest and admiration your profile. I loved the article about letting him look up to you. Our expression in America is what I put in the subject line,meaning the child is like the parent. It sounds like you had a terrific father and I am sure he is very proud of you. I can tell from your words, that you are an extraordinary woman who will make a big difference in the world. This article is so profound. Many women need to hear, and be reminded that they are not subordinates, they are equal and can excell. Thank you for your article and for being your authentic self.
