We are women who are lion-hearted. We are NOT radical feminists but we believe in our rights and in individuality. We are opinionated and we speak our hearts.
"Self assured and confident
With pride she now stands tall
Head erect and heart all set
She now gives her all
No matter what she does in life
Strength is shining through
Realizing all her worth
Her soul found brave and true
Woman born of confidence
Each step that she now takes
Will leave a mark upon the world
Her spirit will not break
All the life that she will live
Her victory designed
This her wish a treasured girft
That heart and soul divined
Watch her as she's walking by
So powerful her stride
Yet gentle as the morning spring
With beauty well supplied
Speak to her at break of day
With power she will rise
Reflections of the life she shares
Looking through your eyes."
I am happy today though I have a lot of excuse to be not.
I am inspired.
I am restless.
I feel butterflies in my hair dancing as they float above me.
I am grasping for reality while I frolic here in the clouds.
I miss you. All the time.
I wish you were mine. I wish.
I really do.
I wish you are my Maximus.
Hoping.
Craving.
I wonder what you mean?
I think I'm driving a truck on thin ice.
Who are you?
Dreaming.
Praying.
I have misjudged.
I must have drunk a case of you.
I only meant to know you.
I didn't know I was giving myself away.
You seem to take me anyway.
My mind.
My heart.
And my soul.

1. Marriage is not a word, but a sentence. (Life sentence!)
2. Marriage is very much like a violin, after the sweet music is over, the strings are attached.
3. Marriage is love, love is blind. Therefore marriage is an institution for the blind.
4. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor's and the woman gets her Masters.
5. Marriage is a thing which puts a ring on a woman's finger and two under the man's eyes.
6. Marriage Certificate is just another name for a work permit.
7. Marriage is not just having a wife but also inherited worries forever.
8. Marriage requires a man to purchase 4 types of "Ring" - engagement ring, wedding ring, suffe-ring and
endu-ring.
9. Married life is full of excitement and frustration. In the first year, the man speaks and the woman
listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. And in the third year, they both
speak and the neighbors listen.
10. It is true that love is blind but marriage is an eye-opener.
11. Getting married is very much like going to the restaurant with friends. You ordered what you want,
and when you see what the other fellow has, you wished you had ordered that.
12. It's true, all men are born free and equal but some of them get married.
13. There was this man who muttered a few words in church and found himself married. A year later, he
muttered something in his sleep and found himself divorced.
14. A happy marriage is a matter of giving and taking, the husband gives and the wife takes.
15. Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock.
16. They say that when a man holds a woman's hand before marriage. It is love. After marriage is self-
defense.
17. When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a ten-year married man looks
happy, we wonder why.
18. There was this lover who told his love that he would go through hell for her. They got married and
now he is going through hell.
May the Love between us be strong
May the Trust between us be whole
And may the words between us be True.
May our eyes See one another
May our ears Hear one another
May our Hearts Touch one another
And may our souls Hold one another
-Annazi Prayer (Annazi is an American Indian tribe)
My mind may crumble trying to describe meaning to a lot of nothings in this world.
Time alone can conclude what they are for.
I go deeper and deeper in the waters of my shallow mind trying to search for that one pearl.
But then I stop.
I remember.
I am one soul in a multitude of personalities within me.
The meaning of nothings may be the only one that can wake the mind from its slumber
And time may not be of importance
And the pearl may turn out to be a lion fish.
Live life.
Uncertainty is what makes it worth living.
Hey Soul Sisters,
Here's a song I was listening to during one night of contemplation and its says everything. Thank you for making my life more colorful and exciting. I love you (and I value that word ha!)
UNEXPECTED FRIENDS
by Sandi Patti
When the dark closes in so hard I can hardly see
And the walls of my fortress of faith crumble in on me
When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me
When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me
With some unexpected friends
Never asking where I’ve been
Just a hand of mercy and words of love
Call me back a gain
Oh it feels like home with unexpected friends
A soothing balm for the wounds I’ve suffered along the way
A fervent prayer giving courage and hope for another day
Through the help of my friends
Ones I may never see again
Seems like angels that were sent by heaven for me
With some unexpected friends
Never asking where I’ve been
Just a hand of mercy and words of love
Call me back a gain
Oh it feels like home with unexpected friends
He is a man of heart... whose strength lies from within.
A man of a few words...but more of compasionate action.
Who shows not impatience...but the kindness of spirit.
His courage is not through fighting...but in knowing when to take arms or simply wait and pray.
He is deeply rooted in virtue...anf slow to anger.
He enjoys the playfulness of a child's spirit...and the maturity of a learned man.
Our conversations shall be filled with humor...or a challenge of the intellects.
A man who is NOT perfect...and yet lives each day to the fullest.
He shares a love for culture...a passion for prose and poetry as well.
He is someone who compliments me in my pain and happiness.
For I am a woman who strives to be complete...then he is a blessing.
When he comes he will teach me the meaning of love.
From now till he comes...
I shall make myself the best of who I can be.

Imagine a woman who believes it is right and good she is a woman. A woman who honors her experience and tells her stories. Who refuses to carry the sins of others within her body and life. Imagine a woman who believes she is good. A woman who trusts and respects herself, Who listens to her needs and desires, And meets them with tenderness and grace.
Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past's influence on the present. A woman who has walked through her past, Who has healed into the present. Imagine a woman who authors her own life. A woman who exerts, initiates, and moves on her own behalf, Who refuses to surrender except to her truest self and to her wisest voice.
Imagine a woman who names her own gods. A woman who imagines the divine in her image and likeness, Who designs her own spirituality and allows it to inform her daily life. Imagine a woman in love with her own body. A woman who believes her body is enough, just as it is, Who celebrates her body and its rhythms and cycles as an exquisite resource.
Imagine a woman who honors the face of the Goddess in her changing face. A woman who celebrates the accumulation of her years and her wisdom, Who refuses to use precious energy disguising the changes in her body and life.
Imagine a woman who values the women in her life. A woman who sits in circles of women, Who is reminded of the truth about herself when she forgets.
