I AM A 21st CENTURY WOMAN

Gone are the days when I used to allow men to treat me like a being of a lesser god,
Or suppress my freedom. That’s a myth best told.
I have ‘womaned’ up, clutching my fist
top over like a vixen.
With all the energies I have in me, I
have removed the blind fold that blocked my eyes and suppressed my brain for so
many years, fed with lies.
I
can now see clearly and make intelligent decisions which I could not otherwise.
I have been enlightened; like the moon
lights up a dark night, so has light shone through all the dark corners of the gender
slavery I was shoved in, I now know my worth, I was bought at a price!
Now, I know my ‘rights’, you can’t have
me ‘left’ out on justice,
I
know what unfair and illegal treatment is; spare me that joke I know how
precious time is.
If you dare try to take me down that path, I
will deal with you. I will pay you a wage, the wrath of the laws of the land
that is due.
I know the importance of education; it
increases my horizon of thinking on top of giving me rare opportunities of doing
great works in this world we live in.
I
know how to be a good wife, mother and still excel in my career.
I am beautiful inside and out, with the
three B’s; beauty, brains and bravery… yeah!
I
can balance it all, with the grace of God of course.
I am a super human. I am a 21st
Century WOMAN!
