Dear Empowered From Within,
B I T C H.
YES.
THAT’S HOW I’M STARTING THIS.
2018 was nothing short of an eventful year!
the very first twenty-four hours you barely survived however, by the grace of GOD somehow you SURVIVED.
Let me repeat that for the one’s in the back.
Let me repeat that for those night’s you cried yourself to sleep. Let me repeat that for every time you were either frustrated, confused, disrespected, broken, or angry beyond measure.
and let’s not forget those times when it felt you didn’t
know the girl looking back at you in the mirror.
By the grace and favor of GOD somehow you SURVIVED.
The intensity of this roller coaster, like the year you had was a hypnotic mix of good and bad experiences that taught you more about yourself than expected. The good came with smiles to kill, endless laughs, days and nights filled twerking and “bad bitchery”. The bad came with life changing trauma, heart wrenching fights, and unbearable discomfort.
Canoeing through the year of 2018 showed you the need for setting, respecting, and requiring boundaries a high level of self-care is never too much.
Accountability is necessary for self-awareness,
disrespect is accepting ANYTHING that is less than your worth, and happiness radiates from the peace. You possess within that no entity can disturb, speak confidently and assertively much rather than using tone or volume to be heard. listen to understand and speak to convey.
Now if you are wondering why I started off with the word
B I T C H.
Brace yourself for this lethal rated r. Mind blowing break down of this impact misconstrued word that society unashamedly uses. Calling a woman, a bitch could be used in an array of descriptions for any situation. A word of endearment acknowledges of undeniable beauty or status of social acceptance. or a word to break the spirit, defame and scapegoat the female species. let me be the first to say:
You’ve been called ALL KINDS OF BITCHES.
A selfish one.
A ruthless one.
A weak one.
A spoiled one.
A heartless one.
And my all-time favorite!
A BAD ONE.
OH YES, IT IS TRUE.
ONCE OR TWICE, I’M SURE YOU WAS ONE OF THESE KINDS OF BITCHES BUT, IF YOU GOT TO BE ONE. YOU DAMN SURE GOING TO BE A BAD BITCH.
As 2018 comes to a rolling end, this self-reflection is needed. Serving as a release of all things toxic that has cluttered your mind, body and soul. A reminder of the eye-opening lessons
and blessing bestowed in my life. Embracing the voice and intuition of the greatness built within you. So many fears being referred to as a bitch, and on several occasions, you were one of them. You feared not being heard.
You feared being uncomfortable.
You feared of change.
And at times you feared yourself.
Fear evokes the feeling of being afraid of the unknown and you are sick and tired of being afraid of the unknown. by the grace and favor of GOD somehow, YOU’VE SURVIVED THIS YEAR.
2019 is rolling in and I can hear the melodies of heaven raining down on you. 2018 has taught you understanding. The blessing in the storm of 2018 hardships were earth shaking, soul breaking necessary test to push me completely out of your comfort zones in every aspect of your life.
I am truly grateful for the woman who I was left standing with as this year comes to an end.
She’s a clear thinker, fearless and commands respect enchanting with brimming energy. Made from a combination of the truest magic and wild spirit. In other words, stepping fully into Her rarest form of “bad bitchery”.
Kehlani said it best
“everything I do, I do it with a passion
if I gotta be a bitch, I’m a be a bad one
all this shit I’ve been through
it made me more of an assassin
I kill ’em with compassion.
Live for the challenge, only make me stronger One more reason to turn up on ’em.”
Much rather than fearing the unknown, you’re fully embracing the realization of how far you’ve come in the year of 2018 and the goddess like status. You are stepping into the year of 2019.
bountiful, alluring, daring, Boldness, Iingenious, taboo, captivating and harmonious.
BREATHE IT. GRASP IT.
EMBODY IT. EMPOWERED BY IT.
I’m no longer afraid to be the bad bitch that I am for nothing or nobody.
I am going to be me.
Unapologetically.
And I encourage anyone who’s made it this far reading my poetic farewell to 2018 to do the same.
I encourage you to remember and live by
this mantra from one of my favorite series theme songs. “anything I want, anything I need I’m able.
so as far as what I’m bringing to the table?
I bring me.
get mine, about mine, go hard
Bad bitch, that’s me!
That bitch, that’s me!
Lame bitch, not me!
What you get is what you see
I bring me.”
Step into 2019
knowing and loving yourself
for who you truly are.
do not allow social acceptance or approval to dictate your view or spirit. do not conform or compromise oneself for the happiness of others. tap into your inner power source of “bad bitchery.”
This goes out to all the incredible individuals that may have lost sight of themselves or feel unattached from your higher power or purpose 2018 was necessary. It was necessary for the rebirth of who you are destined to be.
You needed this push to shift your entire view on every area of your life.
2019 will be a purposeful, intentional
and joyous year to come and will
require you to step out on faith,
let go of things that no longer serves you,
and be an empowered individual from within
