She wakes up to a hopeful morning, having left her dreams behind, yet holding on to them firmly, for her dreams are what gives her the wings to fly by through each long day.

She smiles when she feels like crying and she sheds tears when happy. She is strong during the toughest of weathers yet the simplest of moments can make her weep.

She takes pride in her capabilities and is strong enough to accept her weakness.

She bears and nurtures another life and has the courage to let go. To her, every child is beautiful and every task, a new challenge.

She can nag and she can whine, but she can be extremely patient too.  She loves in the most unlikeliest of ways and gives what she thought she could never share. She loves you for the same habits that she hates you for.

She can be courage in the face of fear and life in the face of death.

She is sure of herself and head-strong and yet sees no harm in seeking help.

It takes the strength of a woman to read the pain in your eyes and to help a stranger; it takes the strength of a woman to hear someone’s unspoken words and fight for what the whole world gave up on.

She lives, she loves, she hopes, she achieves. Question the strength of a woman and she will give you answers you never hoped to receive.

Here’s to HER.
