Inspirational Aimee Mullens

SPOTLIGHT! Inspirational WOMAN! Found out about Aimee back in 2010 and thought she could use a re-lightening. Aimee Mullins is an inspiration not only as a woman but as an incredible human.

Yet, women criminally omitted from negotiation tables. “We should be examining the details (of war) of where the social fabric has been most torn. Where the community has improvised and survived and shown acts of resilience and amazing courage, [...]

Fitting In

Ever thought about, ever wondered how, ever tried to, “fit in”? The only place we should be trying to fit is, *within*. Women, ladies, girls, females especially. I’ve seen too many beautiful souls get lost in societal expectations, how she should be a “good” girl. How she should look, act, dress and speak. Let’s revolutionize [...]
