SISTERS

WE COME IN A VARIETY OF COLORS.  WE HAIL FROM DIFFERENT WALKS OF LIFE.  WE COME IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES.  WE SHARE MANY SIMILARITIES AND JUST AS MANY DIFFERENCES.  THERE WILL NEVER BE A TIME WHEN TWO OR MORE OF US ARE TOGETHER AND WE ARE UNABLE TO RELATE IN SOME MANNER.  IN THE MIDST OF EGO'S, JEALOUSY, AND TONS OF OTHER INDIFFERENCE'S, WE ARE CONNECTED. THIS CONNECTION IS UNIVERSAL AND CROSSES EVERY LINE THAT IS DRAWN IN FRONT OF US.  WE ARE SISTER'S IN THE SORORITY OF WOMANHOOD.   

IT HAS BEEN STATED THAT WOMEN ARE NOT CAPABLE OF MAINTAINING STRONG BONDS WITH OTHER WOMEN.  THAT OUR EGO'S MAKE AND BREAK THE RELATIONSHIPS THAT WE COULD HAVE WITH ONE ANOTHER.  MANY SAY THAT WOMEN ARE OFTEN TIMES CONSUMED BY JEALOUSY.  ALL OF THESE MAY HOLD TRUE IN SOME FORM BUT WE ARE MUCH GREATER THAN THAT.  ALTHOUGH OUR ATTITUDES AND CHARACTERS ARE DIFFERENT, OUR GOD GAVE US A NUMBER OF IDENTICAL GIFTS.   HE DESIGNED US TO BE EMOTIONAL, TO BE NURTURE'S AND TO BE STRONG!!!   NO MATTER WHAT BAD HABITS OR INTENTIONS WE MAY HAVE, THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE ALL POSSESS.  

THE JOB OF A WOMAN IS DIFFICULT AND IT IS NEVER DONE. WE HAVE TO WEAR SEVERAL HATS, ALL AT ONE TIME.  WE ARE THE MOTHER'S THAT GIVE BIRTH TO A NATION.  ALTHOUGH WE ALL ARE NOT BIOLOGICAL MOTHER'S WE ARE ALL EQUIPPED WITH THE SAME GIFTS IT TAKES TO BE A MOTHER.  WE ARE THE NURTURE'S OF ALL WHO SURROUND US.  WE ARE FILLED WITH  MORE EMOTION THAN ONE COULD COMPREHEND.  IN SPITE OF ALL THAT WOMAN ARE,  IN SPITE OF ALL THAT WE ENDURE, WE MUCH SUSTAIN OUR STRENGTH BECAUSE WHEN EVERYTHING IS SAID AND DONE WE HAVE TO PULL IT ALL TOGETHER. THE WORLD LEANS ON THE STRENGTH OF WOMEN.  ALL THE GREATNESS THAT WE CONTAIN IS FROM GOD AND HE INSTILLED IT IN US SO THAT WE COULD PASS IT ON.  WOMEN ARE CREATED BY GOD WITH GREAT PURPOSE. 

 WE ARE DAMAGED BY THE HIGHS AND LOWS OF LIFE, THINGS LIKE INFIDELITY, MOLESTATION, ABUSE AND THE LOSE OF LOVED ONES.  HOWEVER, IN SPITE OF ALL THIS WE REMAIN!!!  WE ARE FILLED WITH PRIDE AND KNOWLEDGE THAT HAS BEEN PASSED DOWN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION. WE HAVE BEEN FLOODED WITH LIFE'S TROUBLES BUT WE REFUSE TO DROWN.  WHY, BECAUSE WE KNOW THE GOODNESS OF GOD.  WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE SO MANY WHO DEPEND ON OUR STRENGTH.  YES WE HAVE BEEN VICTIMIZE BUT WE REFUSE TO OWN THAT BECAUSE WE ARE GREATER THAN THE ACTIONS AGAINST US.  WE EXPOSE OUR AGGRESSOR'S BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THE SHAME LIES IN THEIR ACTIONS, NOT IN OUR EXISTENCE.  

SISTERS, THE NEXT TIME YOU FROWN ON YOUR FELLOW WOMAN BECAUSE OF YOUR DIFFERENCES, THINK ABOUT ALL THAT YOU HAVE IN COMMON.  THINK ABOUT THE STRUGGLES THAT YOU GO THROUGH ON A DAILY BASIS.  CONSIDER HOW YOU WOULD FEEL IF YOU FOUND YOURSELF IN THE SAME SITUATION.  REMEMBER THAT IN SPITE OF OUR DIFFERENCES.................  WE ARE SISTERS
