Why?


Why is it so hard for many of us women to take care of our own selves? Even when we know we are falling apart and about to crack, we still don’t give ourselves the permission. Traditionally as women, we are the ones whom others expect to take care of others. But who really takes care of us? Who really asks us how we are doing? What we need? If we are okay?

Times have changed, many of us are ourselves the breadwinners of our families, and many of us juggle a career and a family. We are also human and we have needs, goals, desires and likes just like our children and spouses or partners. Even if the whole world forgets that we must not.

Just like for everybody human on earth, our creator also had a plan for us. And it’s not just being a mother, wife, sister, or daughter. We to can teach, lead, create, fight, dance and sing. We too come with a bag full of goodies, with god given talent. God didn’t forget us. God never told that we don’t value or we are unworthy.

Girls, mothers, daughters, wives, sisters – here’s to all.. if you have a dream go for it. First give yourself permission to take care of yourself – you are here, because god wants you to be here, and you have a place on this earth. You are needed, wanted and loved. You are not just a background prop, you are spotlight. So claim your right and grab your light.. go for it.. There may be none to push you, just like you push your family towards success, so we have to do it ourselves. If you get up.. and reach out.. if no one else does..God will give you a hand..

Go for it!
