She's something else!...
She needs to chill...
She's just bitter...
She's mean...
She's insecure...
She's jealous...
She doesn't listen...
She talks too much...
She's loud...
She should smile more..."
No. That's not it at all.
No. That's not it at all.
THIS is it:
She refuses to accept your crap as warranted or deserving.
She does not abide, or make excuses for abuse of any kind.
She discerns your disregard and disrespect, but doesn't allow it to define or hinder her.
She knows what belongs to her, and will not allow you to usurp it.
She
doesn't cosign your untruthful, manipulative narrative.
She has a long memory, and is adept at documenting everything.
She will not dumb down.
She cannot be silenced by those who benefit from schemes and secrets at her expense.
She will not allow you to be condescending.
She will not allow herself to be put upon.
She is not a wimp.
She works hard.
She won't let your lies about her diminish her value.
She doesn't answer to the dreadful names you want to call her.
She speaks up for herself when those in authority are too cowardly or entangled to do so.
She refuses to smile when there's nothing to smile about.
She's not laughing if it's not funny.
She asks pertinent questions and expects answers and results.
She takes care of her children--alone if necessary--and, without complaint, sacrifices for their success.
She expects people to do what they say they will do.
She will not allow you to explain away or excuse your irresponsibility, ignorance, or inappropriate behavior.
She speaks truth to power.
Just because she may not say much at times, doesn't mean she doesn't see.
She loves justice.
She takes the high road.
She knows who she is.
If that's being angry, so be it.
We should ALL be so angry.
