Who Is She ?

Who is She?

She is the one we seek comfort from.

Who is she?

Who is she?

She is the one who has seven mouths to feed with a teammate to help carry the load.

Who is she?

She is the one who has the solutions and if not, she will seek them.

Who is she?

She is the one who laughs until she cries.

Who is she?

She is the one who owes nobody any explanation.

Who is she?

She is fiercely protective of those she holds within her heart.

Who is she?

She is the one who balances the cheques, brings in the income and ensures all bills are paid with enough left over to treat the ones she loves.

Who is she?

She is the one who went through hell, just to be able to hold you in her arms.

Who is she?

She is the one who had nothing; and now you’re standing in her Empire, the one she built from scratch.

Who is she?

She is often the last one to take a break from her role.

Who is she?

She is the planner, the scheduler, the one who remembers the dates and times.

Who is she?

She is the advisor to so many.

Who is she?

She is full of views, opinions, love and complications.

Who is she?

She is hard to understand but worth the time spent trying to.

Who is she?

She is the teacher, the solicitor, the home maker, the doctor, the race car rally driver, the architect, the researcher, the scientist and oh, so much more …

Who is she?

She is the one who fought for you to be here.

Who is she?

She is the one who made a decision not to bring life into the world.

Who is she?

She is the one who decided to bring life into this world.

Who is she?

She is strong. Stronger than society likes to admit.

Who is she?

She is the one who gives time she barely has.

Who is she?

She is the one who lends an ear eager to listen.

Who is she?

She is the one who opens her arms for a warm embrace with an open heart.

Who is she?

She is independent.

Who is she?

She is the crafter, the dressmaker, the cake baker, the driver, the DIY- er and oh, so much more …

Who is she?

She is everywhere.

Who is she?

She is powerful.

Who is she?

She is Mother, she is Granny, She is Sister, She is Aunty, She is Cousin, She is Niece, She is friend, She is Godmother, She is Wife, She is Partner…She is a little mix of us, Women, who come in all wonderfully different shapes, sizes and colour.

Women are amazing, aren’t they? Men are obviously awesome too but so many women have so much history and we just get on with life and do what needs to be done.
