Kay:



It's odd to me that this writing happened -- although I feel it is entirely TRUE!



Not too many years ago, patriotism embarrassed me. I had been swindled somehow into feeling God, flag, country, were topics for grade-school children. I had totally (it seemed) swallowed the scorn of the intelligentsia! LOL! How sad...



Here's my naive-sounding writing that FILLS me with JOY. It popped into my Awareness this morning.



LOVE!

A FREE Woman is a Sovereign Nation!



Note first: a 'man' is certainly part of wo'man' -- LOL!



A woman's boundaries are inviolate! (And she may well dress herself in violet, if she so chooses!)



Should 'rape' or 'robbery' attempt to violate her, she immediately defends her borders. Her entire embodiment is hers and not subject to another.



The woman is her own representative, a governing body for HERSELF. There is no external majority that has the power or privilege to "vote" her decisions down.



A woman is not a "police state." She defends herself, but never dominates another.



The woman who is wise is full of appreciation for what is spread round about her. She delights in seeing abundance and prosperity in all its varied forms. She encourages exchange and self-expression.



This woman STANDS FIRM in PRINCIPLE. There is but ONE BEING HERE NOW.



With hand over heart, a woman of Principle swears to her SELF to BE FREE.



I AM-er-I-CAN.
