She is me.

She is you.

She speaks the words no one dares say out loud.

She is the silent voice of the mothers and grandmothers before us.

She is dying to break free of the voices in her head.

She is stepping out of her own way one step at a time. Sometimes two steps backward and only one forward, but She keeps on walking.

Why?

Because that’s what She does. She survives and on some days she thrives. She is a beautiful mess inside.

At first She was just a poster or two. She kept tapping at my shoulder and asking me to put her words on “paper”.

And so it is. She is here to stay. For now.

xo,

Gayle
