To Be Woman

To be woman is to be river and flame
soft as moonlight
wild as a storm that refuses to be tamed
It is learning that gentleness is not weakness
and that strength does not always roar
Sometimes it is the quiet knowing
that carries you through one more door
A woman flows
She bends with the seasons
moves with intuition
trusts the tides within her soul
She knows when to surrender
when to listen
when to let life unfold

But she is also fire

A spark of creation
of passion
of fierce protection
She burns for what she loves
rises from every ending

The beauty is not in choosing one or the other
Not water
Not flame

The beauty is in becoming both

In finding the balance
between softness and courage,
between rest and movement
between tenderness and truth

It is joy dancing freely through your body
It is laughter that spills from your lips
It is presence
pleasure
wonder
and gratitude for the miracle of being alive

To be woman
is to allow yourself to feel deeply
love boldly
dream wildly
and trust the wisdom that lives beneath it all

And when you find joy
when you become joy
you discover that your light was never missing

It was always there
flowing like water
glowing like fire
waiting for you to embrace
the beautiful woman you already are
