I see her. She is busy. Frantic. Hurried. Always doing. Always having to have the answers. She interrupts. Gets annoyed. Frustrated. She is sensitive. Unsure. Her mind is wild. She feels scared. Fearful, yet doesn't know why. She keeps herself small and narrow. Bound by self imposed ropes of how she 'should' be. What she 'should' be doing. Who she 'should' be. Afraid to break free, to step into and own her own voice. Worried to speak her truth. Carrying the heavy burden of others opinion on her shoulders.
