I am Woman
I am woman, I am breaking free
From chains that bind.
There is a life out there for me to find.
I have done it all,
Been a loving mother and wife,
Now I seek my perfect life.
To love, to live,
For all choices to be mine,
I break these chains that hold and bind.
Outstretching my arms,
No chains now for me,
I repaint a new, exciting life for me.
I embrace my journey
With perfect insight,
Ready to soar into a new life just right.
No more will love be a prison for me.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

You now need Helen Reddy singing 'I am woman, I am invincible, singing her best-known song. I have worked so long with women as a nurse and as an infant/toddler teacher women are the greatest to work with and around.
Powerful and empowering! A beautiful declaration of freedom and self-discovery. Truly inspiring!
Bravo!!!
Hooray for all women out there, including and especially ourselves. A beautiful write, Georgie.
