Today, I am linking up with Mandy at She Breathes Deeply
She started a bloggy Project called Project 31 which is focused on celebrating the beauty of women and Proverbs 31.
Proverbs 31 is probably the most inspirational verse from the Bible for women. It describes the type of woman that we should aspire to be and I am so thankful to have found Mandy's page, because I think this idea is so wonderful!
Today's post is about what makes me, me. I have decided to use a poem I wrote a few months ago that I feel sums me up pretty well. Sometimes, I think I have (me) down, some days I am just as confused as my husband. :) One thing for sure... is I love this life and I love being a woman.
Because there are so many components that make me, me...I have found that some descriptions tend to almost contradict the other and so a poem was created. :) We are all interesting, complicated and unique and we all have so much to give. Proverbs 31 reminds us just that.
