Born This Way

I am an aggressive, dominant female and I was born this way.  It is empowering for me to say those words, to embrace the Goddess within myself.

Most of my life I have had to make excuses for why I am dominant due to preconceived notions that women are somehow delicate wilting blossoms, and thus the weaker sex.

I was blessed with a progressive thinking Grandfather who played a major role in my upbringing, and began my eduction at the age of three. He adored women and believed they should have a higher role in society, and what is more important he passed that on to me. 

Education is Power, whether you are self taught or not. I read every book he handed me, and always kept in mind that I should strive to learn something new everyday.

Don't be ashamed of who you are, shine on.

Suck The Venom Out.

Letting go of one's old idea's can be challenging and frustrating, but is a vital obstacle to overcome in the personal healing process.

Often times we tend to hold on to our pain, and the tragedies that have befallen us. This will only lead to more suffering and stunt our emotional, social and spiritual growth. We have to let it go.

If a sane person were bit by a poisonous snake, they would find the means necessary to remove that snake's venom from their veins. They would not allow it to continue to coarse through their veins, knowing the ultimate result would be death.

Holding onto sadness, prior abuse, regret, and holding grudges will poison your system in the very same way a snakes venom will. It will fester inside you, control your thoughts, and ultimately rob you of any actual true happiness that you deserve.

Did you deserve these things to happen to you? No.

Does anyone deserve to be bitten by a snake?  No.

Point is You don't have to die inside, or be dead inside.

Suck the Venom Out! 

The Only Person you can change is you, and you are well worth the effort.
