Oh frustration! Irritation! I cannot underbloodystand!!!
I am frustrated by my own limitations. Honestly, I
am embarrassed at my limited knowledge on certain topics. I am ashamed of my
lack of ambition. I feel I function well below potential. But jeepers, at least
I try. I try to stay relevant. I am trying to remain human. I am terrified of
losing touch with the world or being reduced to a dependent, desperate
housewife. I work so hard to maintain some kind of identity.
Yet there are people, WOMEN, so content to wither
away. So resigned to being handicapped. What hurts me most are those who are
mothers of daughters. They cause the most harm. They, by example, teach girls
to NOT want more for themselves.
I'm not saying go out and stand your man in a man's
world. But dammit try to be something. Every breathing body has potential. Can
you go to your grave content with not having at least tried to explore yours?
