Defining Power

I think I need to define ‘Powerful Woman’..while defining me…
It seems that many people look at a married woman…
Who has a lot and decide she has no power…
No matter what she does or how she does it…
She must have it because her man is taking care of her…
That pisses me off…
The reason being because they don’t know a damn thing about
It or me…
I have been successfully married for a long time…
And I am married to a man…
Who has always taken care of his family…
And most importantly his wife…
But I want the record to show…
I am not a spoiled, pampered princess…
Who works a job, several jobs really…just for fun…cause I just need something 'cute' to do…
I am a woman who supported her man through a military career…
Raised two good ‘sons’ while he was handling his business…
At the same time…getting educated…
And creating several viable careers…real money earning careers…mind you…
Then right before age fifty, decided to write books…create a company…
To create a legacy for future generations…
Because we can call ourselves…hard workers all we want to…
But until we ‘own’ what we are doing…
It is just work…’
And it’s work for someone else…
So if I make this thing look easy…
Because I have man who supports me…
Children who take care of themselves…
And I am wearing pearls and cute shoes…
While I am doing it…
Don’t be fooled…
Mother works hard everyday…while relaxing at night...
And handles her business while she is doing it…
“Don’t let the smooth taste fool you…”

I love it! This was some potent stuff! I would have named it "The Fruits of my Labor". It is obvious to me LOVE made it all possible.

Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also and he praiseth her. (Pro 31:28)

It is not by chance you have and are who you are. You paid the price. God bless!

A man is a man...and just like ke puts his pants on one leg at a time so do us women. When will people get a clue that it is good to have a loving man, but if you don't you can still be strong. And while you do have that wonderful man, you can still do things without his permission, not because you have to(sometimes we do)but because we want to. Put this on the inside cover of Cinnamon's Universe get the points across.
