My Heart And Prayers Go Out To

A Woman Is More Than The Sum Of Her Parts.

At My Aunt's Funeral, I Promised Myself That I Wouldn't Be Bound By The Belief That I'm Supposed To Stay In Anything - Whether It's A Relationship, A Job, A House, Or A Circumstance - If It Makes Me Miserable. She Gave Me The Courage To Find My Own Happiness.

I Defy Any Woman Who Is Pregnant And Trying To Concentrate Really Hard Not To Feel Distracted.

Back In My Mid-20s I Was Told I'd Never Be Able To Have Children As I Wasn't Having Periods. Doctors Tried To Start Up My Monthly Cycles, But When Nothing Worked, They Actually Offered Me A Hysterectomy. Without It, They Said I Might Get Ovarian Cancer In The Future. I Chose Not To Have The Operation, And Am So Glad I Didn't.

I Think Every Individual Has His Or Her Own Power, And It's A Matter Of Working, Taking Time And Defining What That Power Is.
