What a Woman

Once upon a time, people said, ‘It's hard for women.’ Now they say, ‘Women can do anything.’ And this is not just a slogan, but a working instruction. Here, there is a march, an anthem, and a dance on high heels all at once. First, it's about how hard it is to prove the obvious, then it's about how fun it is to live once you've proven it. The brain is sharp, the heels are high, the mood is rosy, but with a hint of steel. Every line says: not an angel, not a miracle, just a person who knows how to be herself, even when the world tries to explain how it should be. And here she is, flying, hair blowing in the wind, laughing loudly, bills paid, plans grand. So what? She has a manicure, a degree, and confidence too. Man, now that's a woman.
