The Fear of Powerful Women
What is it about a woman knowing exactly what she wants that terrifies and disgusts the masses?
Maybe it's the fact that you cannot shame a woman who own everything about herself. You can't weaponize the truth against her.
You can't get her to see herself as anything less than who she is because your validation is not required.
She won't be paralyzed by guilt or find herself drowning in self- sacrifice.
She won't feign satisfaction for the sake of your ego.
She has nothing to prove regarding her intellect, competency or ambition.
She will receive what she needs and disengage from the rest.
I can see why some find her dangerous.
She has found Supreme Acceptance and is not easily manipulated.
She is free.
The Cruise Of Lies
Let me tell you about the Cruise of Lies.
This photo was taken on our first family cruise(which would become an annual tradition). I had made the decision to divorce my husband. My daughter was 3 years old.
A few weeks earlier I had gotten the call that set everything in motion. A woman “anonymously” called my house to inform me that my husband had been cheating on me for some time with a co-worker. This was the culmination of many red flags that I ignored throughout the course of the relationship but that’s a story for another day.
The decision had been made. Papers filed. He was in the process of moving out. This cruise was to celebrate my Grandparents turning 90 and it would be the first time we had all gotten together since my wedding. It was also the first big family vacation for my daughter and I knew it would be the last one for her with her two parents as a unit.
Everyone was so excited about this cruise,...
