My Woman, your emotion is valid.
<p>I used to feel like I was less if I cried. So, I tried to control my emotions—especially when someone, particularly the other sex, wronged me. I would just hold it in, thinking, <strong>Why should I even tell a guy he did something wrong to me? I’m just a lady.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>But over time, suppressing my emotions took a toll on my emotional health. I found myself carrying burdens I didn’t have to bear alone.&nbsp;</p><p>Then, I realized I needed to change my approach. If I needed to cry, I would. It didn’t make me weak. I didn’t have to pretend I had it all together while hurting inside. I learned to embrace vulnerability, to speak up when I was wronged, and to let the people close to me in.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>To every woman out there: Your emotions are valid. Your voice matters. Your strength is not in silence, but in embracing every part of who you are.</p><p><br></p><p>Happy International Women’s Day!&nbsp;</p><p>Keep shining, keep thriving, and never be afraid to take up space.</p>
My Woman, your emotion is valid.
