They come from north, south, east and west
They are marching throughout this land
It's something that women call Sisterhood
That's beginning to take a stand.

They are women from every race and creed
They are women from all walks of life
They are beginning to realize who they are
Besides a mother, a lover, or wife.

They are waking up with a mighty voice
Against things that some go through
Be it abuse, shame, or just the 'game'
They are shouting they are through!

They're taking a stand against violence
Against discrimination everywhere
They've found the 'system' may fail them
And society may no longer care.

.

.
Women all ages are fighting back
For the places that they should be
In the college, the public or workplace-
In a world that only they see.

Women are demanding due respect
For jobs well done each day
For hard work in the home or office
For fair and equal pay.

The old saying "It's a mans' world",
Is one that's no longer true
For women are now getting educated
Until they finally see this through.

So never underestimate the Sisterhood
Or the women who now join hands
For the cause of saying "We are WOMEN-
who are here to change this land!!"

~Sisterhood~

This page is dedicated to women helping women all across the world with support, love and prayers.  Women are realizing from 18-80; this is long overdue.  No matter what race, color, creed - women must realize this world holds many a door for a better place for us to live in and enjoy our lives - but it us up to US to  'open all  the doors' by joining hands.  If  YOU are a young woman age 18+  (OR younger) remember - KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!!

One young person wrote me recently asking " Is "THIS" what life is like after the age of  '40 something'--being alone and not finding work (after reading my page "WOMAN" *S* )   My answer to you is this - IF you do the things BELOW - YOUR life CAN and WILL be what YOU make of it starting at AGE EIGHTEEN while you are still in school.  Some of us made "wrong CHOICES" when we were young - Now older we 'learned'....
.
YOU have a "choice" on your education at age 18 OR Younger !
.
Some of us didn't MAKE that choice until later in life. 
 But YOU CAN!!

 Do it NOW!

Get ALL the education you can - finish COLLEGE, become independent for yourself - and if you DO this; you'll never be "DEPENDENT" on anyone else!!

Follow your Dreams, Guard your Heart - Always Feed Your Mind and Soul!!  Your mind and spirit work together - or not at all!!
Don't let anyone ever tell you that you are NOT capable of something you want to do in this life!!   Set goals for what you want - then go after them!! Whatever you think of yourself
IS what you will become.  Become the BEST YOU - YOU can be!

Never underestimate the Power of  One Woman.
BUT..
Together We  All  make a difference!!!
