Open letter to my sistas.



We are strong, beautiful, unique women who were meant to shine. BRIGHTLY.
We are not meant to be slaves of our past, to bear the weight of others hurtful intent, to cry over every imperfection.
God made us perfect in His eyes, no one else's opinion should matter.
We are those who bear LIFE, we breathe life to the mundane, we bring passion to LOVE.
We are strong beyond measure and beyond what we can even comprehend in the moment.
We are the independent, powerful, driven, intelligent kind.
I hope we never forget who WE are, where WE'VE been and WHAT we've SEEN.
OR what the SCARS left on our bodies from challenges overcome MEAN to US.

No one shall ever have the power to break down the walls we so carefully and meticulously put up to protect ourselves.
If we didn't do that for ourselves, WHO WOULD HAVE?
No one should ever make us feel like we're too strong, too independent, to opinionated to be with.
No one shall ever make us feel less than beautiful, everyday.

It's not about putting US on a pedestal but its appreciating whats real.
