Wild and Wise Women
are not perfect.
We have made “mistakes.”
We have taken risks that, from the
outside, appear to have not paid off.
We have chosen the road less
travelled,
and at times seemed to be lost.
We have veered left when the whole
world went right, and would rather
walk alone than follow
… just to follow.
We have misbehaved.
We have dared.
We have made others uncomfortable
and we have stood our ground.
We have been “wrong”.
We have been “right”.
We have changed our minds and
we have started over.
More than once.
We have gone back to the
drawing board.
We have loved.
We have worn our hearts on our
sleeves and we have had
our heart broken.
We have misunderstood and been
misunderstood.
We have been mad and
we have fought back.
We have “thrown the first punch”.
Wild and Wise Women have felt
“all the feelings of the rainbow and
refuse to apologize for it.
We have said “I’m sorry” with our
whole hearts and we have forgiven.
We have even forgotten – because it
allows us to move on.
There are Wild and Wise Women
that I greatly admire that have been
judged harshly for their perceived
missteps.
Wild and Wise Women who get back
up and hold their heads high, even
when their hearts are broken by the
judgments of their sisters ~
the Wild and Wise Women
around them.
THIS is a call to the sisterhood.
An anthem that I hope you hear again
and again that reminds you that
together
we are strong.
A tribute that honors the
“mistakes”,
the imperfections,
the heartbreak and
battle scars for without them –
we could not possibly become
Wild and Wise.
This is a plea to encircle our sisters,
in their best and worst moments ~
urging them to allow the labels of the
moments to fade into the wind
while together we celebrate the
moment for the blessing,
the teaching,
the learning, the experience
that it is.
THIS is a battle cry.
A surrender.
A lullaby.
A chant.
Wild and Wise Women EVERYWHERE
You are loved.
You are loved.
Say it with me now W3 ~ You Are Loved. xo
With all my love,
Christa xo
