I am a Bitch!
When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a bitch.
When I stand up for those I love, they call me a bitch
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do things
my own way, they call me a bitch.
Being a bitch entails raising my children to be strong people
who have a solid sense of personal and social responsibility,
who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in and
who love and respect themselves for the beautiful beings
they are.
Being a bitch means that I am free to be the wonderful creature
that I am, with all my own intracacies, contradictions, quirks,
and beauty.
Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life MY way.
It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it,
I am defined as a bitch.
The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of
being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.
I am proud to be a bitch! It means I have the courage and strength
to allow myself to be who I truly am and and won't become
anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined.
By Goddess, I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong
with that!
So try to stomp on me,
try to douse my inner flame,
try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.
You won't succeed.
And if that makes me a bitch, then so be it.
I embrace the title and am proud to bear it!
