When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a bitch. When I stand
up for those I love, they call me a bitch. When I speak my mind, think my own
thoughts or do things my own way, they call me a bitch.
Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it, I am defined as a
bitch. The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being
everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish. It means I have the courage
and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone
else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
I am outspoken, opinionated and determined. I want what I want and there
is nothing wrong with that! So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner
flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won't
succeed. And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I embrace the title and am
proud to bear it.
