Notes To My 25 Year Old Self ... A Spiritual Journey

The New Testament book of Titus speaks to how the older women, through their lives, should model reverence for God and good behaviors for the younger women. This then, coupled with a mother's love for her daughter, became the impetus and the inspiration for "Notes". Because older women remember and know what it was to be younger woman, rather than lecture to ears that had grown tired of the broken record, it was simply easier to let my life experience speak. And through these words, through my mistakes, my lessons learned, hopefully, and finally, I could feel that I had birthed not a daughter, who saw herself as a small, insignificant creature, beat up by circumstances and relationships, but a woman, proud of who and what she is, with the knowledge that she matters, she is worthy, and that she is fearfully and wonderfully made, and that God has uniquely purposed her, equipped her, through her gifts and talents to do great things and to touch people's lives. The ultimate lesson, perhaps the final "Note", for the woman that I birthed, is that the world will ultimately be a better place, when she, when all of us, show up fully in it.
