I Am Woman by Elizabeth Denham
I am a wife, a mother, a writer, a business owner. I aspire to learn more, be more and offer more while content with today. I am dreaming bigger than I ever have – putting self-doubt and fear aside Reflecting on who I am, identifying who I want to be Nurturing self while supporting others Learning patience in uncertainty, faith in the unknown. I have been condemned and celebrated. Devastated and joyful. I embrace it all. I embrace the messy, the uncomfortable, the challenging and the impossible. I hold tight to resilience, fortitude, strength and family. I walk through pain, fear, disappointment and frustration So that when I know joy, I feel it at the deepest levels Appreciating the beauty that comes from pushing through the trials Believing in the possibilities. I cling to hope, love, faith and redemption While I look to the future – every day striving to be… …a tornado of joy.
