You are not defined by the man who you call father, the man who is your lover or the man who calls you sister. You are not just someone’s daughter, wife or sister. You are galaxies more than that. Woman, you are poetry and songs and oceans and tornadoes, and stars and stories. You are the hundreds of women you were before and the hundreds of women you will be after this moment. And powerful things like you need no man to define you for you to be enough for yourself.
