Find joy in womanhood...

There are many great things about being a woman, we can laugh about those joys being a new pair of shoes or a new lipstick, but when you get down to it, there are many more deeper joys to be found in womanhood. Sometimes we take our womanhood for granted and it's easy to forget how special you are when lost within the daily grind of just 'keeping it together'.

Over the past several weeks I have bid farewell to three very different and very wonderful woman, the world is certainly poorer at their loss. I can look back at the lives of these three women and learn a lot just from the memory of them;

• Patience.
• Love.
• Passion.
• Vulnerability, it's ok to depend on someone else.
• Joy in life, to always look on the bright side.
• To be gentle and kind.
• Service, when you're having a bad day, look around you and help someone else in need.
• Believe in happy endings.
• Don't give up easily, in fact don't give up at all, always pick yourself up with grace and If you can, help someone else up on your way.
• Honesty is always the best policy, with others and yourself, in this manner it does not matter so much what others think of you as what you think of yourself.
• Find joy in your motherhood, be proud of being able to bear children, love them no matter what, thats what we are born to do.
• Lift each other as friends as sisters and as fellow women.
• Stand up for what you love, live what you believe in.

What will people learn from my life when I'm gone, what will they remember from my memory? Hmmm!  Shudder to think really... haha!

Well its just a short post tonight but I want to leave you with this song from Alicia Keys...

Never forget, just like these three awesome women... we are "Superwomen."
