Welcome to the Dark Side...

Just kidding, but that is what I'll be ranting about in this post.

No, I'm not offering cookies. I'm offering something better: something for you to think about. Because we, the ladies, also have brains, and we should not be afraid to use such important parts of us.

Ever since childhood we, the ladies, are taught that we must repress our darker side: we always have to be polite, we always have to smile and keep our best behaviour, we must smile when we're angry or sad, when we're forced to do stuff we hate, that annoys us.

We are raised to be people-pleasers at our own cost, our well-being and happiness.

And then the world goes nuts when we snap in the middle of a lousy week.

Ladies, we're like the Moon - we have dark sides too. Though I'm not saying we should act upon our dark sides, we really need to find balance.

We need to face our dark sides, befriend the darkness within and stop being scared of it, of what the world might think of this new discovered friendship.

We need to find balance in everything in life. Our darker and lighter sides, our happiness and other people's. Because, ladies, we only live once, and we deserve to be happy, enjoy our own lives and stop allowing others to live through us. They had their chance, now it's our turn.

Be happy, ladies. Be free. Be whole and complete in yourselves. Join the dark side.
