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.

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.

((Screw what YOU think.))

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 put out 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.

thx Queenie.
