Every woman is a Wonder Woman, and every woman deserves love. Every person should find a unique way to get motivated to get up and continue the war every morning instead of succumbing to anxiety and pain; with the one and only enemy of each of us - our own I … Therefore, whenever you get stuck with yourself and this period does not take you all, remember what it is that you want for yourself and what is the price you are willing to pay to get it.
