whispers

If I could, I would whisper in your ear that you are strong, confident and competely fearless. That nothing and no one has the talents you've been given; your perspective, your eye, your flair. I would remind you that your beauty is unmatched and unparalleled, and that the accomplishments you will achieve are yours alone. And I would say that you are more than your individual parts. Your entire person, your womanhood and femininity, are cherished and respected, especially and fully, by your husband. I would then chastise you for becoming small and angry and comparative. I would command you not to give away your power or allow your gifts to shrink from guilt or the possibility that you might make someone else uncomfortable. In the end, I would say, it only robs everyone of everything you have to offer. And in a quiet voice, you would say, you're absolutely right.
