Our women ancestors

When faced with a decision that scares you.

Think of the women who came before.

Those who could only dream of the opportunities you have now.

Talk to your ancestors my friend.

Hear their primal roar.

They are beside you.

And you are never alone.

When faced with a risk in this life.

Just once or twice, jump bravely into the fire.

And know that they will be cheering you on.

And guiding you out.

They speak to you through your gut.

And they are wise.

Listen, jump,

be held.

The more I learn about my female ancestors, the more I am inspired by their tenacity and taking what they had available to them and using it for their own benefit and their families.
