From Witches to Bitches

Throughout history, women that were free thinking or unconventional were labeled as Witches. They were often ostracized and in some eras, burned at the stake. The majority of these women had no formal ties to witchcraft. They were not typically performing satanic spells and sacrificing animals. They were unmarried women, midwives, healers, women with physical deformities...They were women who did not fit into the cultural norms.

Women are no longer burned at the stake as Witches - at least not in this Country!

Today Strong Willed women are labeled Bitches.

People are still threatened by a woman who does not follow conventional roles. Now rather than dragging them out of their homes and burning them at the stake; they are labeled a female dog. 

Don't label yourself or any woman in such a derogatory manner.

Why does the Caged Bird Sing?

But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

Making the most of your situation, however limited it may seem at the time, is truly an amazing gift. 

Understanding that, is a gift that can always bring you Freedom. 

Regardless of what your external circumstances may be, no one can effect your internal situation. You are the only one that has and always will have control over your inner peace and attitude. 

No other person can truly oppress you. 

You are the key to your own Liberty and to the Beauty that comes from you. 

Let yourself Sing!
