Because…I am a woman

I am rich because I have friends! And between those friends I have some special friends – I call them my girl-friends, no matter their age.

No matter how surrounded we are by men, how much we need them to complete our being…there is something that we share between us - women.

We meet to talk about clothes, make-up or perfumes, about broken hearts or children, engagement, retirement. We share our joy and sorrow.

You wouldn`t even exist without the one that have given you birth. And what would you do without the sister, the mother, the friend, the grand-mother, the stranger that looks in your eyes and acknowledge the same feeling as you?

There is always some envy that boils inside every woman.

There is one that’s more beautiful, one that has a better job, one that has a better house, one that has a more carrying husband, one that has a smarter child.

But, don’t forget my dear friend that there is a balance in all this. The one that’s more beautiful maybe is not as lucky as you are, the one that has a better job- maybe doesn’t have any child or husband, the one that has a better house, maybe it’s not that healthy, the one that’s smarter maybe it’s not as loved as she would want to be.

Be happy, woman! Because you are a fighter for beauty, for innovation, for all type of human rights, for peace, for health and for all types of love.

Do you need examples: think of all the women artists, think of the Misses, think of the Scientist women, think of those in politics or war, think of the doctors and the carrying mothers, girlfriends and wives, sisters or loving daughters.

Maybe you are not yet a celebrity in a field, but you don’t need all that to be called a woman.

Be proud to be a woman because you are a fighter.

When you are born they should not turn their heads because you are a girl, but they should praise the Nature because another shackle that can carry the seeds of a child has emerged. Your gender is a flower that blossoms and they should love, cherish and protect you because you are delicate. They should not close you in a cage because you are not a wild animal, but a being able to learn, to analyze and speak up a valuable opinion.

You should have a choice in life because by our Nature we were brought to life with reasoning. And never forget that your purpose in this world is not just to carry children, but to embellish our world by your presence.

You may be treated, or be seen differently depending on your culture, but this is just because the society has inlay in its customs slavery views. But, you can change that. And you don’t need a war for that- you need to be unite and bring strong arguments.

You never gave up when they slandered you, you never gave up when they hit you, and you never gave up when they stopped loving you! You carried your disappointment with you for centuries!

Because you are a strong woman!

Be proud to be a woman.
