Womanhood & My Inner Me

I awoke this morning with a smile on my face. Thanking God for peace. The sun was shining bright, while the chirping of birds tickled my ears. I thought to myself, Wow! I am blessed. Life can be filled with obstacles and challenges. However, it is how we handle those challenges that define our personality and character.

Being a woman is one of the most rewarding blessings I was given by God. As I grow older in my skin, I become more pleased with myself. Not just the physical aspects of myself, but the strength as a woman I possess. When I was a young girl my mother often talked about the advantages and dis-advantages of being a woman but, never the less it’s great. She would say “one day

you will come to know what womanhood is for yourself”. Indeed I have!

Womanhood to me is not a status it is a state of mind. To reach this point in my life

derives from the highs and lows of a long journey of struggle, love, joy, confusion, discouragement,

failure, low self-esteem, heart-break, assurance, edification, confidence, unhappy

careers , a sense of self-worth and a tremendous amount of pain. You name it, I have felt it all.

Finally, I am at peace with me. SUCCESSFUL & HAPPY!

Reaching true womanhood is going through the cycle of life. Experiencing life’s

revelations made me stronger to continue my life journey God has set for my path. Things are not always perfect, but I’m well on my way. Discovering my inner me was one’s of life’s greatest

Pleasure and tributes to share with my daughter as her journey her life path. 

Begin your journey to find your inner you.  Do not be afraid or ashamed.  Share your thoughts… What have you discovered about yourself?  What does womanhood mean to you?
