Maybe It Would Have Been Easier...

...if I hadn't been born as a female.

Allow me to explain myself; I don't really wish I were born as a male and I certainly don't aspire to become a male. No. That's not what I mean.

Sometimes it does seems to me that males have it much easier since a large part of society are patriarchies. And I sometimes imagine that Omma and Appa would have kept me-instead of relinquishing me for adoption. But then again my younger brother may never have been born and I wouldn't be me. As in the person that I am now.

No, this is toxic thinking and old familiar thinking of mine, I can no longer allow myself to think like that.

I know this is a thinking pattern that is doing me more bad than good, but sometimes I just can't help it. Now, I don't want to be a victim any longer - refuse to see myself as a victim.

 I am a strong, intelligent, talented and independent woman. I should be proud of who I am- I am proud of who I am.
