So there's less than a week til valentines day and I'm not really looking forward to it...... I really don't like it 'cause it brings back memories of my mom and it makes me upset....but that's not the only reason why. I have never really had a valentine in the first place....and I think it is a rip off because it's another day for companies to make money.... unless you spend it with someone you love, care about or is significant to you then it is pointless.... ya .... hopefully I can find someone who fits those specifications....otherwise, I'll be fine without it...... being myself is all I really need right now...but it doesn't hurt to have someone there with you to help along the way

Sojourner Truth
I love this speech by Sojourner Truth titled "aint i a woman"
That man over there say a woman needs to be helped into carriages
and lifted over ditches
and to have the best place everywhere.
Nobody ever helped me into carriages
or over mud puddles
or gives me a best place. . .
And ain't I a woman?
Look at me
Look at my arm!
I have plowed and planted
and gathered into barns
and no man could head me. . .
And ain't I a woman?
I could work as much
and eat as much as a man--
when I could get to it--
and bear the lash as well and ain't I a woman?
I have born 13 children
and seen most all sold into slavery
and when I cried out a mother's grief
none but Jesus heard me. . . and ain't I a woman?
that little man in black there say a woman can't have as much rights as a man
cause Christ wasn't a woman
Where did your Christ come from?
From God and a woman!
Man had nothing to do with him!
If the first woman God ever made
was strong enough to turn the world
upside down, all alone
together women ought to be able to turn it.
