Tuesday, I'd always remember you as that Kick-ass brit twang fluffy girl! I will always treasure you to pieces. . . ^_^


FOR FIRST RATE BITCHES

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 intricacies,
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 won't
become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined.

By God, 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, so be it. I embrace
the title and am proud to bear it.

PROUD TO BE A BITCH! ^_^
