Someone, the other day was saying to me, "you could have been a queen, my queen." Now that I've ruminated over the sentiment, I've decided something.
Look at me. I am a Queen. I am my own queen, and I don't need anyone else to tell me what I am for it to be true. I just know it in my blood and my bones. But you're a Queen too. Or a King.
I decided something else, too.
I belong to no man, woman, or deity. No one has a claim upon me but myself. And I only want to belong to myself. I'm not a bird to be caged up, I'm not a dog to be owned. I'm a person who has an independent heart, mind, and spirit. And if the people I am around can't handle that, then I need to find new people.
