BITCH

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call  me a  bitch. When I stand up for those I love, they call me a bitch. When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do  things my own way, they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch entails raising my children to be strong  people who have a solid sense of personal and social responsibility, who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in and who love and respect themselves for the beautiful beings  they are. Being a bitch means that I am free to be the wonderful creature that I am, with all my own '  intricacies, contradictions, quirks and beauty.  Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my  heart. It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't  allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it, I am defined as a bitch. The same thing happens when I take time for myself   instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.

I am proud to be a bitch! It means I have the courage  and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I  "should" be. I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined. By God, I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong with that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame,  try  to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won't   succeed. And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it. B - BabeI - In T - Total C - Control of  H - Herself

Send this to all the bitches you know, or anyone you  feel should become a bitch :) And by the way...if I were a man with these same  qualities, I would be called independent, strong, self-  assured, confident, determined, and driven. This was not intended to offend anyone, and I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did!
