I saw some amazingly strong women this weekend. Women who have a firm, unshakeable connection with the spiritual realm and the source of guidance. Women who know what their mission is and are pursuing it. Women who have made and continue to make sacrifices to achieve these goals - and do it with pleasure, not regret. Women who are there for other people, giving support and encouragement and not letting them wimp out of contributing their share. Gentle, loving, compassionate, but fierce and firm and strong. It was really inspiring.
Of course, these are also women who don't seem to cry. I'm sure they do - I just couldn't imagine it. Whereas I was welling up every two minutes with something else inspirational. I think this can be a good thing. I don't think it's weak at all. But I am curious about these different ways of approaching the challenging and inspiring and touching experiences of life.
