All your life you are told the things you
cannot do. All you life they will say
you're not good enough or strong
enough or talented enough, they'll
say you're the wrong height or
the wrong weight or the wrong type to
play this or be this or achieve this.
THEY WILL TELL YOU NO,
a thousand times no until all the No's
become meaningless. All your life they
will tell you no, quite firmly and very
quickly. They will tell you no. And
YOU WILL TELL THEM YES.
So there is the first one now here is the second one ( it is mainly for girls):
A WOMAN IS OFTEN MEA-
SURED By the things she cannot
control. She is measured by the way
her body curves or doesn't curve, by
where she is flat or straight or round.
She is measured by 36-24-36 and inches
and ages and numbers, by all the out-
side things that don't ever add up to
who she is on the inside. And so if a
woman is to be measured, let her be
measured by the things she can
control, by who she is and who she is
trying to become. Because as every
woman knows, measurements are only
statistics. And STATISTICS LIE.
That's really pretty-
ReplyDeleteI like the first one a lot.
