Imagine a woman


This is what I hope for my beautiful little nieces..


"Imagine a woman who follows her creative impulses.
A woman who produces original creation.
Who refuses to color inside someone else's lines.
Imagine a woman who names her own gods.
A woman who imagines the divine in her image and likeness.
Who designs a personal spirituality to inform her daily life.
Imagine a woman who authors her own life.
A woman who trusts her inner sense of what is right for her.
Who refuses to twist her life out of shape to meet the expectations of others.
A couple of stanzas of the poem Imagine A Woman In Love With Herself by Patricia Walden.
