Writing with Juliet Iwelunmor

You do not have to be happy, you do not have to be international or woman, to know the amazon within you, to let the journey from your head to your heart, know why today is worth celebrating. Tell me your story about being a woman and I’ll tell you mine plus the strength that binds us together. Meanwhile, this day will go along. Meanwhile, the sun will set as it pleases, and birds will roam the skies as they like, all across the hills or parks or wherever they choose to be, for life is for the living, so the ability to fly for all of us who know why we smile. Meanwhile, some woman, somewhere, is tending to her home again. Wherever she is, no matter how long, the world offers itself to her happiness, asks her to soar to the skies like birds, flying high and high, she will always know her place, know why she smiles, know too the amazon within her.
