The Life Of A Modern Woman With An Old-Fashioned Soul

She is fiercely passionate

She is fierce, strong and full of fire. She is a beast in her own way. One who feels deeply and loves fiercely. Her tears flow as abundantly as her laughter. She is both soft and powerful, she is both practical and spiritual. She is unstoppable and she takes anything she wants with a smile. Not even she could hold herself back because her passion burns brighter than her fears. She knows what she wants and works hard to obtain it. Her intuition is her favourite superpower.

She is a gypsy

She is always in need of adventure. She seeks the next best thing in any life situation. She is very passionate and often inspired by different ideas, attitudes and experiences. Into the wild, she goes, losing her way, finding her soul. She is the dreamer of dreams, the artist, the writer, the wanderer.

She is free

She has let go of who she was supposed to be and embraced who she really is. Home is wherever she wants it to be because true security can only be found within herself. She lives a free-spirited life and believes in truth, freedom and love. When she feels suffocated, she is out the door. She does as she pleases. She becomes upset and rebellious when anyone tries to fix her or hold her down. You are either on her side, by her side, or in her way.

She is unique in her sense of style

She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art isn’t supposed to look nice. It is supposed to make you feel something.

She is fierce in times of hardships

She’s been through a lot. She has been hurt mentally and emotionally. Life has taught her and she has learned to prepare for the worst….She is not always happy, but she is always brave.She moves forward, with a little more wisdom, a heart that is more open to love, and with a mind that welcomes deep healing. She is the women who never stopped smiling. She is a true fighter, you can see it in her eyes. She is not born strong but made strong.

She is a believer of faith and hope

She is a woman of God. Her faith, hope lies within him. She is guided by him and safe. She does not fear as she trusts that God will take care of her.

She is in for all walks of life

She went through a few things. A smart woman is a beautiful woman. A beautiful woman is a dangerous woman. A dangerous woman is an intimidating woman. And those reasons alone are too much for some. She still carried some of the dead weight she swore to shed. It isn’t easy letting everyone, or anyone, in. You can’t force a flower to bloom. It does so at its own pace, under the right conditions. And there’s no going back. Only growth. Only forward. That’s what the thorns are for. Whether you could handle her or not, you sure as hell will feel her.

She is an old soul

Who actively seek to empathize with people and understand life from their perspective.

She is in love with her private life

She is a very private person, yet an open book. If you don’t ask she won’t tell. She spends her evenings as she prefers it, mostly alone. She knows the difference between alone and being lonely. Dazed by the complexity of her own character, playing the type of music you would only hear in a Harlem jazz club in the late fifties.

She is most of the time misunderstood

She is known for many layers and being complex. Truth be told, she is most of the time misunderstood. The real tragedy lies in her understanding others but they do not understand her. She decided that being silent is better than telling others how you feel. Knowing that you are being heard but not understood could be more painful than expressing your feelings.

She is an empath

Everything she experiences hits her deep, raw and intense. As an empath, she feels the energy of herself and others. As she ages, this ability only grows deeper and stranger. Quit people intrigue her. You never know if they are daydreaming or if they’re carrying the weight of the world.   

She is an introvert

She frequently spends time alone to recharge her “batteries” and do what she does best, which is reflect, analyze ideas and make connections. She feels comfortable with being alone. She has little time and interest in short-lived experiences, people or conversations. Small talk is her nightmare coming to life. She does not bother with anyone or anything that cannot breed long-lasting fulfilment. One good friend beats five inauthentic acquaintances. Quality over quantity, always!

She is romantic and loyal

She has an old-fashioned heart that holds timeless love. She’s a three-page love letter in a world of relationship status updates.

She is a friend

Even though she is selective in their relationships. Once you are her friend and she cares about you, she is loyal! She rewards loyalty with loyalty and disloyalty with distance.

She is a paradox

She is faithful and yet detached. She is committed and yet relaxed. She loves everyone, and yet no one. She is sociable but also a loner. She is gentle and yet tough. She is passionate but can also be platonic. She is predictable in her unpredictability.

“She is both soft and intense. Both traditional and rebellious. Both vulnerable and strong. Both romantic and realistic. Both feminine and oceanic, yet filled with slow. Burning fire. There is possibility inside of a paradox. There are so many different perceptions” – Victoria Krickson

She is a modern woman

Truth be told, she is an ancient soul, in a modern body, with a futuristic state of mind. She is not afraid to use her voice. Her thoughts, opinions and ideas. As she realizes that they are just as important as anybody else’s. Whenever she speaks she speaks with boldness and purpose. She has the courage and is confident by staying true to herself. She intends to live a life fearlessly. She is a woman who has something important to say. She is dripping melanin and honey all over her body curves. Other fail to see here beautiful colours as they are colourblind. They fail to see she is a leader with a charm that can influence a crowd. She has an inner confidence that lures you in, captivates, makes you question who you are.

She is….

She is me.
