To All My Sisters Out There

I wanted to dedicate this entry to a very special "sister" out there. I wanted to remind all of my sisters out there how amazing you are.

I have always been fascinated by how we see ourselves versus how others see us.

I wanted to let you all know that I "see" you for the amazing and phenomenal women that you are. I see the fearless champion that you are for your children and all of your loved ones. I see the light that shines in you that at times you can't see.

How could we ever feel lonely when we are so loved and so admired?

Well, I admire all of you. I admire your strength for never giving up and never giving in. I see your passion to make a difference and to make change. I see the love that you show all the new "sisters who arrive into our club. Sure, none of us wanted to be in this club, but we wouldn't change it for the world.

I sit and wonder do you know how much I admire you all? Do you know how I look to you and say, "she is amazing and I have so much to learn from her?" You all are a force to be reckoned with! I have learned so many things from all my sisters, each has something beautiful to teach me. All my sisters have had such a profound impact on my life, you all have touched my soul. I have learned patience and persistence to keep myself grounded. You have taught me tolerance and action to make the change I want in the world. Most of all you have all taught me how to love and accept, the two most important things I need to have a life filled with hope and beauty.

So to all my sisters out there during this holiday time when we are to be thankful, I want to say this to you. I am thankful for you. I am grateful for you. You are the warriors and the champions. Please remember this in your quiet moments when you feel like you can't see yourself. Remember that we all see you, all of your sisters see you. You are a gift so precious. You were chosen.
