There are many ways and myriad reasons for women to honor and
embrace all that they are. And when any individual woman chooses to do so,
all women collectively move closer to becoming what they are truly capable of
being. By honoring her experience and being willing to share it with others
-- both male and female -- she teaches as she learns. When she can trust
herself and her inner voice, she teaches those around her to trust her as
well. Clasping hands with family members and friends, coworkers and strangers
in a shared walk through the journey of life, she allows all to see the
self-respect she possesses and accepts their respect, too, that is offered
through look, word, and deed.
When a woman can look back into her past, doing so without regret and instead
seeing only lessons that brought her to her current strength and wisdom, she
embraces the fullness of her experience. She helps those around her to build
upon the past as she does. And when she chooses to create her desires, she
places her power in the present and moves forward with life into the future.
Seeing her own divinity, a woman learns to recognize the divinity in all
women. She then can see her body as a temple, appreciating its feminine form
and function, regardless of what age or stage of life she finds herself. She
can enjoy all that it brings to her experience and appreciate other women and
their experiences as well. Rather than seeing other women as competition, she
can look around her to see the cycle of life reflected in the beauty of her
sisters, reminding her of her own radiance should she ever forget. She can
then celebrate all the many aspects that make her a being worthy of praise,
dancing to express the physical, speaking proudly to express her intellect,
sharing her emotions, and leading the way with her spiritual guidance.
Embracing her womanhood, she reveals the facets that allow her to shine with
the beauty and strength of a diamond to illuminate her world.
