Great Women
To be a great woman means to know
the stories of others.
A great woman knows not only her own battles,
but those of the women that came before her,
and those that stand by her side.
A great woman does not watch
the others burn.
She takes their stories, their pain, their loss,
and she passes them on—
then fights to stop them from happening again.
Real Women
Real women
stand by other women.
They do not undermine
each other’s goals.
They fight together
and help other women
feel beautiful too.
