Here is a different and good way to use the word b***h
I'm a b***h!
When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a b***h.
When I stand up for those I love, they call me a b***h.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do things my own way, they call me a b***h.
Being a b***h entails raising my children to be strong people who have a solid sense of personal and social responsibility, who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in and who love and respect themselves for the beautiful beings they are.
Being a b***h means that I am free to be the wonderful creature that am, with all my own intricacies, contradictions, quirks and beauty.
Being a b***h means I won't compromise what's in my heart. It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it, I am defined as a b***h.
The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.
I am proud to be a b***h! It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined. By God, I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong with that!
So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won't succeed.
And if that makes me a b***h, so be it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.
I love this, I can call myself a b***h now and not feel bad about it

The beauty of a sunset is a splendour to behold, sometimes the sky's afire with tints of red and gold. Then other times it's gentle like a lovers soft embrace, enthralling us in grandeur to be blessed with such a place.
How special are these moments that nature lets us see, moments where our spirits will struggle to be free. These moments, when they find us, bring contented inner peace, moments that we purge ourselves and give our souls release.
We see how small we really are next to nature's majestic age, it grants us humbling moments when pondering this awesome stage.
This is a union as day couples with the night, a dance of perfect harmony, the joining of darkness with light. When these two forces come together, they are more united then when apart, we stand to learn so much from this display of divine art.
Embrace the feeling within your heart when nature opens the door, for if you do you will find you are granted so much more. As Mother Earth prepares for slumber, it's enough to make one pray, for the gift of seeing this miracle again another day....

There's something in a simple hug That always warms the heart;
It welcomes us back home And makes it easier to part.
A hug's a way to share the joy And sad times we go through, Or just a way for friends to say They like you 'cause you're you.
Hugs are meant for anyone For whom we really care, From your grandma to your neighbor, Or a cuddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing - It's just the perfect way To show the love we're feeling But can't find the words to say.
It's funny how a little hug Makes everyone feel good; In every place and language, It's always understood.
And hugs don't need new equipment, Special batteries or parts - Just open up your arms And open up your hearts.

Life is Beautiful
Always live your life to its fullest.
Enjoy laughter, touch a star.
Smile for today while you shine through your tomorrows.
Open your heart to strangers; destiny may bring newfound friends.
Venture out, conquer the unconquerable.
Look where others dare not look, and question all that is questionable.
Remember that happiness is the home we build within ourselves.
Speak your mind.
Hear a symphony within silence.
Open your heart.
Challenge tomorrows and treasure yesterdays.
Capture all that you can in this beautiful creation called life.
William J. Burrows

BE A KID AGAIN Give yourself a gold star for everything you do today. Dot all your 'i's with smiley faces. Sing into your hairbrush. Grow a milk mustache.
Smile back at the man in the moon. Read the funnies--throw the rest of the paper away. Dunk your cookies. Play a game where you make up the rules as you go along.
Order with eyes that are bigger than your stomach. Open a pack of cupcakes and give one to a friend even though you wanted both of them for yourself. Step carefully over sidewalk cracks.
Change into some play clothes. Try to get someone to trade you a better sandwich. Have a staring contest with your cat. Eat ice cream for breakfast.
Kiss a frog, just in case. Give someone a "hug-around-the-neck." Blow the wrapper off a straw. Refuse to eat crusts.
Make a face the next time somebody tells you "no." Watch TV in your pajamas. Ask "Why?" a lot Have someone read you a story. Eat dessert first.
Wear your favorite shirt with your favorite pants even if they don't match. Sneak some frosting off a cake. Refuse to back down in a "did vs. did-not argument." Do a cartwheel.
Get someone to buy you something you don't really need. Hide your vegetables under your napkin. Stay up past your bedtime. Whatever you're doing, stop once in a while for recess. Wear red gym shoes.
Make a "slurpy" sound with your straw when you get to the bottom of a milkshake. Put way too much sugar on your cereal. Play a song you like really loud, over and over.
Find some pretty stones and save them. Let the string all the way out on your kite. Walk barefoot in wet grass. Make cool screeching noises every time you turn a corner. Count the colors in a rainbow.
Fuss a little, then take a nap. Take a running jump over a big puddle. Eat dinner at the coffee table. Giggle a lot for no real reason.
