The Power Is Yours

Recently I've been feeling (and basking in) the power of being a Black Woman. We truly do have the power to change the world if only we would apply ourselves. Men have told us, and we've allowed ourselves to believe, that we are not worthy of being worthy. I'd be a fool to allow myself to keep believing that I and my cultural sisters are not forces to be reckoned with. We are the chosen. We are the often imitated, never duplicated. We are healers, life bearers. We are changers, trend setters, nurturers. Being a Black Woman is better than being all you can be...we are the greatness there is! We are feared. We must allow ourselves to be what God has destined us to be. "Be ye unafraid oh sister of my soul." Claim your greatness, embrace your destiny. Know that you are the greatest being that has ever walked this earth and beyond. KNOW IT and BELIEVE IT...bask in how you EMBODY IT.

(Someone needed to have this message delivered. It's yours. Claim the greatness of you!)
