inspiration - She Who Makes Her Meaning Known

Court's so cool for sharing my deal on affordable health (can anyone say free yoga?) that I just wanted to share something equally cool, although slightly less active - some powerful words by Audre Lorde that always gives me inspiration - hope they do the same for you:

"For each of us, as women, there is a dark place within where, hidden and growing, our true spirit rises...These places of possibility within ourselves are dark because they are ancient and hidden; they have survived and grown strong through that darkness. Within these deep places, each one of us holds an incredible reserve of creativity and power, of unexamined and unrecorded emotion and feeling. The woman's place of power within each of us is neither white nor surface; it is dark, it is ancient, and it is deep."

Before she died, Lorde in an African naming ceremony took the name Gamba Adisa, meaning Warrior: She Who Makes Her Meaning Known. How f***ing cool is that?

Peace, FCWarriors...
