Empowering Women

We did not break the glass ceiling, Hillary did not win the presidential election but the fact that she came this far gives us hope as women that nothing is unattainable if we work hard at it. Yes a small fire burns within us and we hold hope in our hearts that a woman can one day become president of this nation.

We know the road will not be easy. We know that we will have to work twice as hard but I believe that one day a woman will create history by becoming the leader of  one of the greatest nation on earth, The United States of America.

Thank you Hillary Clinton for giving women hope and a voice.

2016 Presidential Election

Whatever the outcome of the election we must stand and have faith that we will continue to progress as individuals. We must ensure that love and acceptance prevail and we must never accept any message of hate towards our fellowmen. I hope that everyone will be able to live in love and harmony.

The future right now is uncertain but we must all remain positive and hope for the best. We must pray that the people of the United States of America will be united because a nation divided among itself will fall. I hope for the best for America and I hope you do too.

Relationships

Two things that may hold a woman back is self-doubt and low expectations. Often times in relationships a woman gives her all trying to please her man without understanding that she deserves his all in return. She gives a hundred percent of her love only to have it taken for granted.

A woman who lives with self-doubt and believes that she has no choice but to settle will live a life filled with disappointments. She needs to understand that she deserves as much happiness as her man. She needs to know that she should never accept anything less than she deserves.                                               

Stay Positive

No matter how far you seem to be from where you want to be in life, never stop trying and never stop believing that you are going to get there. The seasons are always changing so if you are going through tough times your season of change is coming.  Don’t give way to doubt and think positive thoughts. God will not only fill your cup but He will let it overflow with blessings.

RELATIONSHIPS

One Sign That he may be an Abuser  “ISOLATION”

A majority of women get into relationships having no idea that their intended partners are abusers.  This happens because you cannot tell that a man is an abuser simply by looking at him.  He often appears to be your regular nice guy.  He puts on the charm.  He wines and dine you and make you feel important.  He says the right words that you want to hear.

However charming he may appear at first be careful and take nothing for granted.  Keep your eyes open for any warning signs that he may not be all that he wants you to believe that he is because he could be an abuser.

One of the first signs to watch for is ‘Isolation’.  One of the first things he may try to do is isolate you from your friends and relatives.  If he wants you to cut ties with your friends don’t for one moment believe that he is thinking of your best interest.  If he tries to keep you away from your family or try to make you choose between your family and him be warned; he is up to no good.  He could be setting the stage for abuse!

When he gets you in a position where you are isolated from your family and friends it gives him power over you because when the abuse starts you will find yourself alone with no one to come to your aid and that is exactly what he wants.  Do not ignore that first clue!

Be Comfortable in Your Own Skin

Society puts a lot of pressure on women. You have to look a certain way have a certain body type and even dress a certain way to conform to the norms of society.

However a strong woman knows that she doesn’t have to do any of this. She knows that her happiness is not derived from pleasing society but instead to have a level of confidence about whom she is as a person so she can be comfortable in her own skin.

Euthanasia

 

Euthanasia may sound like a nice word but it is really nothing more than a method by which thousands of elderly people are made to die each year by relatives who often think they are doing what is best for them.

How does euthanasia work you might ask. It is quite simple acutally and is widely accomodated in hospice care even though the practice is illegal in some states. Death by euthanasia in some cases means that the elderly person is deprived of food and water until his or her body shuts down and they die. Injections and drugs can also be used.

Ehthnasia is like a two edged sword on one hand it can relieve those who are terminally ill and suffering, from their pain and misery, on the other hand it can send those whose family members are tired of caring from them to an early grave. Do you think it justifiable to have an elderly relative who is still capable of eating and drinking and stave them to death. You thoughts are highly appreciated.

The First Lady

Michelle Obama is one of the most extraordinary women to have ever graced The White House. Her beauty, intellect, charisma, and gracefulness speaks much about her character. She reaches across class barriers and makes people feel at ease with her vibrant and welcoming personality. She exudes an aura of confidence and an understanding of her role as a woman with a voice and one who is never afraid to stand up for what she believes in. She is someone who we as women can emulate. She was like a breath of fresh air in The White House and many of us will miss her when she is gone.

Getting Respect

There is an old saying that the more things change the more they remain the same. Many women know this reality only too well. The abuse and disrespect of women have gone unchanged throughout the centuries dispte talks of ending abuse and protecting women.

It is time for self empowerment and for women to  recognize some of the signs that indicate you may be heading for disaster. An important element of any relationship is RESPECT. A man who respect his woman will not make her feel as if she is unimportant and unworthy of his love. If you start off the relationship feeling that you are not respected enough don’t waste your time and energy trying to make him respect you. It is a bad foot to start out on and a serious indication that it will not work out.

You cannot force a person to respect you but you can refuse to be disrespected. Empower youself with the knowledge that you derseve better and you will not settle for less.
