Young women from the past
were told by our culture
wait to be chosen.
You do not know enough to choose.
We will choose for you.
We know what is best.
We will plan your path.
We know what you need.
You need our guidance.
Yes, they loved you
but did they know you?
Young women today…
Do not change to be chosen.
YOU must choose.
Do not forfeit your power.
Choose you. Be true to you.
Choose a choice that will last.
Do not allow the mores of the past
to hijack your future.
You be you.
Always and forever.
FLOW
The unfinished book is locked in my safe, but never far from my mind. Especially now, when choices are being made by powerful people that have not earned trust and do not have the same heart as many.
Mercy for all.
