There is something about a woman who knows who she is- she can't be taken lightly because her senses are keen. It doesn't matter if she is in the boardroom, in a relationship, or holding down the strength of a family; she is in alignment with her spirit. You can't just manipulate her, you can't take her for granted, and you most certainly can't take her for a ride that she doesn't want to go on. I used to shrink back in many situations to make others feel good, or to avoid intimidating them. As I grew older, I discovered the inner weakness behind that behavior. I began to see my strength. I didn't become arrogant, or nasty toward others- I simply started speaking my truth. I started allowing my "yes" to be a yes, and my "no" to be a no. At first those who knew me didn't like it they found themselves unable to manipulate me, take me for granted, or lead me where I didn't want to go. When I took a good look in the mirror, I realized I was beginning to love myself correctly- for the strength God had given me, the vision He had placed in my heart, and the voice to speak my truth. There is a deep freedom in knowing who you are and loving yourself. If you are struggling with your identity, or loving yourself start looking for resources to help you see a brighter future.
