The Woman I Am Becoming

The woman I am becoming.

The woman I am becoming is many things.

The woman I am becoming is proud.

Not proud in the usual sense. Not arrogant or haughty or self-righteous or overbearing.

But confident and proud.

Proud of the battles she has fought.
Proud of the giants she has slayed.
Proud of the obstacles she has overcome.

Proud of the days when she kept going.
Proud of the nights she refused to bend.
Proud of the mornings she got out of bed…again.

The woman I am becoming is proud and she is gentle and she is generous and she is wild.

She is all these things.

The woman I am becoming is a tender thing.

The woman I am becoming is humble. Not in the meager, lacking, dismissive sense.

But full of the humility that comes from knowing who you are.

Humility that accepts help.
Humility that embraces vulnerability.
Humility that accepts the messiness of process.

Humility that acknowledges those who’ve gone before.
Humility that remembers from where she came.
Humility that appreciates the wonder of life today.

The woman I am becoming is as proud as she is humble.
As confident as she is kind.
As wild as she is gentle.
As strong as she is tender.
As fierce as she is compassionate.

The woman I am becoming is all of these things.

The woman I am becoming is whole.
