twenty five

so i just realized today that i am officially a woman...before today i always thought of myself as a girl....and never accepted that i could ever be called a woman...maybe its because i am turning 25 in two days....so to honor this milestone i have made a list of why i think i am a woman...enjoy....i am a woman because

i am officially a quarter century old

i am 5 years away from 30.....weired.....


i am a woman because i financially independent

because i do not fancy shopping in sirens and stitches

because i would rather go see an opera that party

because i enjoy spending time at home with my lover

because i am not afraid to be myself

because i now know that life is too short...and i have to live it to the fullest with no regrets

because i have been heart broken time and time again

because i am sexually liberated and no longer cringe at the idea of talking about sex, attraction, love and starting a family

because i have to be financially responsible

because i know and accept that one day i will die

because i do not let external expectations dictate my life

because of my life experiences

because i love with all of my heart

because i am....who i am....with no regrets

because i am fragile....but not naive

because....

i have grown and matured....time has played a part in my maturity...but my experiences...past and present...my dream and hope for the future...has shaped me into a beautiful young woman

......xoxo....
