Last fall I published a post about it being your life and you should own it. Well I’m using the video clip I used from that post and a few of the words I said last year, so please read. It’s your life!
Stand your ground. Your life belongs to you. You are the one that breathes in and out of your body every day. You are the one who should be choosing what you plan to do with it, or are doing with it. The struggle may be difficult, but it’s worth it.
In the following video clip from the movie “Aliens” the heroine “Ripley” definitely encounters more things than we can ever imagine having to cope with in our lives by having to fight aliens on another planet.
But there is a point to be made here. When something needs to be done. She does it. She makes the hard decisions she needs to make, in spite of her fears, and makes them count!
.
We, women may not be facing aliens but we are still facing the right to be all we can be, as equal human beings. And it’s worth the fight, ladies. Stand up for your rights. It’s your life! Don’t let anyone take that away from you!
How many times in your life do you plan to keep feeling helpless and “less than”? That needs to stop, now. Inside of every single one of you dwells the ancient heart of a warrior, we’ve always been survivors: For our children and our families, now it’s time to make sure we’re surviving for ourselves, too – for the right to be our own person.
It’s time to accept the person that you truly are: the nurturer, the teacher, the guide, the peacemaker, the strength giver, the sustainer, the lover of all mankind and life – time to wake up your “loving warriors heart” because –
“That’s what little girls are really made of …
and we are long overdue for being acknowledged for this!”
So, stand your ground! You’ll find you’re not alone, I for one, am right there with you!

This is my throwback Thursday post, but if I could I’d post it every day until every single female on this planet understood and believed in the truth of my words!
Great to be back, just in time for some Penny-pep-talk:)
I love it Mitzie! Penny peptalk. I’ve gotta remember that one! 🙂
I remember this post from last year. I can’t remember what I said, but I do know that every woman is strong, and every woman should know she is strong.
I think you’re right, Alstair. I’m sure it was something like that. I know your feelings on this subject, dear friend of mine! 🙂 xp

Thank you Yoshiko. It is good for women to have their own voice. It does not make them any less of a person.
Welcome, Penny, for your kind words.
