Yesterday was so intimidating. I sat in a room full of strong women ans discussed what that really means and how to put that into effect on this campus. This was something I have been waiting for, for so long and it has happened. I have a place where I can express my views, concerns, and my hopes for women on campus. I have such a passion for women's ministry. Letting women know that they do matter and that their identity has nothing to do with the man they want to marry, or are married to. Their identity is all their own and they can take control of that.
There was this one girl there, she said everything I have wanted to say. she said it with passion. I listened. I heard her every frustration with stereotypes, with a "woman's place" compared to her husband's, she was radical. I think I only spoke about three times that whole night, but I think I am ok with that. I am still in shock at how courageous these women are, and I am not against them, but with them. I also think they may think that I am younger than I actually am. Which sucks cos I'm not. But they will know in time.
My voice is rowdy and it cannot always be suppressed.
