let out a laugh that would've caused me to wet my shorts -- had I been wearing
any. A contemptuous, sneer of a laugh -- like the hiss of a rattlesnake.”

back, it reminds me of my mother who once said we have locked our eyes to see
the everyday reality of violence against women which men cannot pay off with
their bones and flesh.”

“Mistaken
notions of our culture jam-packed with the flippant hearts, particularly those
who intend to excavate reasons to justify every rape or forced conversion case
cannibalise my brain box and moral compass which often says to each other ‘My
dear, it’s so unnecessary’.”

“She
was, quite simply, a nice lady who'd raised a family and now lived quietly with
her cats and grew vegetables. This was both nothing and everything.”

“What
would the world look like if you and I—as the first generations of
resource-rich, informed, penicillin-protected, and free mothers
to
have ever walked the planet—released ourselves from the burden of
stories
told for us and began to see ourselves for the incredibly powerful, important,
worthy, and inherently beautiful beings we really are? I believe the outcome
would change the course of history.”

Fatima Mohammed, Higher Heels, Bigger Dreams
“Find
her with the flowers.
The
roses,
The
marigolds.
Find
her telling stories that
She’s
never before told.
Find
her when she is vulnerable
And
honest
And
true.
When
you find this girl,
Just
know
I’d
keep her close
If I
were you.
She’ll
write a tale in growing time that
Almost
seems to last forever.
Don’t
ask her when she will stop daydreaming.
She
will simply look at you
And
say,
“never”
Because
forever in her fairy tales
the
girl with the flowers will be.
Finding
things of inspiration
To
keep her heart beating
And
her spirits light
Humming
a simple harmony.”
―
Alice Tyszka, Finding My Light
“For
every sensitive soul, time alone is not a luxury; it is a matter of survival.”

Sylvia Salow, Find Yourself: Go the Distance to Discover Your Meaning
“I
would like to crush the incredibly infantile notion, that entails everything a
woman does, is in the seeking for approval. A woman shares a selfie: she is
looking for approval; a woman smiles at you: she is looking for your approval;
a woman speaks her knowledge: she wants to be smart in order to gain your
approval; a woman graduates at NASA: she wants to gain the approval of society
(no, it cannot be that she simply dreams of landing on the Moon); a woman takes
all her clothes off in her photos: she wants to gain the approval of men. Why
is it that everything a woman does, says, shows and thinks; is assumed to be in
the seeking of approval? The only time a woman is not seen in such a light, is
when: she is silent, her body is covered up, she goes around meekly like a lamb
or stands idly like a fading flower. A woman is a person who may do, say,
think, feel, and show, as she wishes to, without any of that having to do with
any man or any other woman around her. Yes, it is true that no person is an
island, but what is also true, is that, every person is a living being capable
of performing, acting, thinking, showing and feeling, entirely unto their own
will and for their own purposes.”
