Somewhere between coping with crafter’s block, and being inspired by all the Dr.Seuss books I have been reading to my younger daughter, I came up with this snippet of sentences. I was surprised by what I jotted down and pretty sure that I must have been feeling some of these emotions subconsciously. T was fairly impressed and said I should post it and share it and she personally wished she could turn it into a song.
I am ME !
Why should I be pretty
Why should I not be plain
Why should I be thin
Why should I be fat
Why should I be tall
Why should I be short
Isn’t it enough I am a good daughter
Isn’t it enough I am a good sister
Isn’t it enough I am a good wife
Isn’t it enough I am a good mom
Isn’t it enough I am a good friend
Isn’t it enough I carried life
Isn’t it enough I gave life
Isn’t it enough I survived
Isn’t it enough I nurture life
I am me !
It’s time to celebrate me
It’s time to celebrate the woman in me
It’s time to celebrate the human in me
I am me !
very nice…
