Yesterday I
came across a friend’s update on social media throwing shade at another woman.
I wasn’t impressed as I know both ladies and the power they both have to make
an impact in this world.
We delight in
the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through
to achieve that beauty
Each of us can look back upon someone who made a great
difference in our lives, someone whose wisdom or simple acts of caring made an
impression upon us. In all likelihood it was someone who sought no recognition
for their deed other than the joy of knowing that, by their hand, another's
life had been made better.
I have been fortunate enough to know a few of these
selfless and worthy human beings. If people wanted strength in numbers, we
would be more united than weak and divided.
An African proverb says, “If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go
together.” I would be nowhere at all if it weren’t for my sisters. With
Divine Flouring women, I began to understand that when a significant group of
people also know and understand the power of the greater whole, it strengthens
all of us: I am far better with you. I’m much stronger and have multiplied my
resources. When I’m together with all these people in a room, I can do
anything. That is truly empowerment.
It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life
that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself. Part of our survival instinct is to help each other. It's
time for all of us to get connected, reach out and lift up each other. The
more freely we share, the more bountiful are our gifts.
It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now
that I have it, I am not going to be silent.
STOP COMPETING
WITH EACH OTHER AND EMPOWER ONE ANOTHER!!!
