The men look at her and tell themselves they want her.. Imagining taming her fiery heart and wild spirit inspires them to chase her affection relentlessly… Until they realize that behind her soulful eyes lies unexpected depth and beautiful passion. Truth is, they all fancied themselves up to the task of winning her heart, thinking this beautiful woman was much like any other.. Until they realized that she was nothing like the rest. They tried wooing her with expensive gifts and flashy places…only to understand that she didn’t care for the material possessions of this world- She would trade a thousand diamonds for the chance to meet and connect with a deep soul and have meaningful conversation. She wasn’t interested in what they could buy her, where they could take her or what gifts they could give her… She wanted to know who they were, what moved them and their reasons for being. Truthfully, this surprised and shocked many, for they weren’t prepared to open themselves up, be present and share their vulnerability. Many couldn’t process what that meant and it scared them. But that’s who she was, what she valued and how she loved… She never settled, compromised or devalued herself for anyone else. Either accept her on her own terms or part as friends… She wouldn’t change who she was for anything- Especially love. She knew true love would be the one that she could embrace herself fully- and so would be. So, she wasn’t holding out for a hero, superhero or anything else unrealistic. She was content to live her life and enjoy it...but she’d love him when he would finally cross her path. And if that wasn’t her future, well, then she would make her own love story quite happily. So, until then, this fiery woman would keep doing what she did best: Love hard, live passionately and enjoy her life. Every day in every way, She’ll always be strong, proud and free. And one more thing: They’d never call her lonely.. They’d realize she was loving and living her life, just the way she chose.

I believe,
One's strength,
Is also their greatest weakness,
So there will always be,
Somebody ready to hurt you.
I believe,
That people can change,
No matter how much they hurt someone,
Because in actuality,
They were hurt far worse,
By someone else.
I believe,
Good and evil are perspective,
What one person sees as evil,
Another will find comical,
And that both good and evil,
Are in everyone.
I believe,
The world is dying,
And the only way to cure it,
Is to be good,
Because to make good,
You have to be good.
I believe,
Love is weakness,
That you must give in to,
Because without it,
You wouldn't find your strength.
I believe,
The world is just beginning,
But nobody will understand,
Until it ends.

She doesn’t need to be fixed, saved or completed..she just needs to be understood.Not because she tries to be mysterious or complex, but because her soul- one of the truly old souls- yearns for deep connections and passionate love.She’s tried the ordinary lackluster love and it always left her unfulfilled.Her road has been a hard journey, though she’d never ask for anyone’s pity..She has too much self respect than to wallow in her misfortunes.She’s strong because she’s had to be, her only choice was to endure the pain that pushed her forward.Sometimes, being strong is the only option you’ve got, and she chose to be beautifully broken in the flames of her tragedies rather than to just give up.She never asked why or felt ashamed of the struggles she’d survived, for the fires of her failures forged her iron spirit.She guards her heart behind high walls and in deep places, because she knows better than to risk heartache on undeserving suitors.It will take a truly patient and compassionate man to see past the windows to her soul, willing to weather the storms of her fires to see the sparkle of her heart..For she’s no ordinary woman with a regular life, she’s a reborn warrior with a heart of gold.She loves hard when there’s love to be had and chases her passions with reckless abandon.Her ferocity isn’t for most men, but then, she doesn’t want most men..They can’t handle her fierce love, old soul and warrior spirit..Most are too weak to walk beside her and love her in the way she knows she deserves.She just wants the one meant for her-The person who gets her and appreciate her for the woman she’s worked hard to become.Maybe he’ll show up tomorrow or never come at all..she knows she will be fine either way.She’s too strong and too deep not to be.Regardless, she’s a one of a kind, once in a lifetime lady, and she’ll never settle for anything less than the best.No matter how her story unfolds, she’ll always write it her way.Always unique.Always strong.And always beautifully free.
