THE POWER OF WOMEN

For too long, what was resistance was called patience.

Imposed silence was called discretion. Not causing trouble was called elegance. Enduring everything without making too much noise was called strength.

Something has changed.

It is not about taking someone else’s place. It is about no longer asking permission to occupy one’s own.

A woman’s power does not need to resemble the power we once knew.

Perhaps that is why it unsettles.
