“Often we can get caught in our own struggles, our own small stories, that we forget our place in the larger story arc – the way that our actions, our choices, our achievements can and will blaze trails for that who come after us, so that they do not have to spend their time and energy re-fighting the same battles. For sure we walk a spiral path, but for generations of women the spirals were so tightly packed that it seemed they were going round in circles – let us blaze trails so that the path we walk takes in wider and wider sweeps of human experience. Trail blazing is what we do when we find ourselves in the wilderness, with no path to guide us but our own intuitive understanding of nature and our destination. At times we must walk through the night, guided only by the stars. We know when to sit and rest, to shelter from storms, when to gather water, and what on the trail will sustain us and what will do us harm. We are courageous and cautious in equal measure, but we are driven forward, not only by our own desire to reach our destination, but also by the desire to leave a viable way for others who follow. Trail blazing is an art-form. It is how we find paths through what before was wilderness. We push aside braches, or cut them back, we tramp down nettles and long grasses, ford rivers and streams, through the inner and outer landscapes.” FeminismEmpowermentFeministHeroinesWomen In HistoryInner JourneyCultural ChangeHerstoryTrailblazersTrailblazingWise WomanBurning WomanBurning TimesWomen S WisdomTrail Blazers Book:Burning Woman Source: Burning Woman

“In time we came to the point that most closely concerned [the women]: that all life is precious, but Creation is a power to be used sparingly, not relentlessly, without care or concern for their health. That Wisdom demands they choose when and how often they bring new life into the world; the power to give life comes with the right to deny it.” WisdomFeminismCreationWomen S RightsWomen S Wisdom Book:Lilith Source: Lilith
“Every girl and every woman, has the potential to make this world a better place, and that potential lies in the act of thinking higher thoughts and feeling deeper things. When women and girls, everywhere, begin to see themselves as more than inanimate objects; but as beautiful beings capable of deep feelings and high thoughts, this has the capacity to create change all around. The kind of change that is for the better. Remember: High in the head and deep in the heart. Antlers on your mind and anchors in your heart.” Wisdom QuotesStrong WomenPowerful WomenQuotes For WomenWomen S QuotesWise WomanInspirational Women S QuotesBe MoreStrong GirlsQuotes For GirlsWisdom For WomenWomen S WisdomThink MoreChange The Way Women ThinkFeel MoreGirls With DepthThe Evolution Of WomenWisdom For GirlsWomen Can Change The WorldWomen With Depth Author:C.
