Phenomenal Women Of The Web
 |
Here are the goals and morals I have set for myself,
and pass them on to my child,
they have become:
~ The Phenomenal Women Of The Web Creed ~
My ideals about being a Woman and a Mother to my child.
It is my requirement to bring her up the best I can.
That is not an easy job in today's world.
I want her to know right from wrong.
I want her to question the answers, and when she believes them to be wrong,
to stand up for herself and ask for an explanation why.
If she makes a mistake, to admit it and apologize promptly.
I will encourage her to be anything that she wants to be.
Sure, she can be a Nurse, but why not be the Doctor,
or be the Lawyer instead of the Secretary?
I hope when she is my age, she is not judged on the shape of her legs,
but on the depth of her skills, and the goodness in her soul.
I want her to know that there is much, much more to a Woman than being a housewife,
and if a Man tells her that is the way it is, to tell him to hit the road Jack!
I also want her to know, that if SHE chooses to be a housewife,
that it is a FULL TYME JOB,
and should NOT be discounted.
I want her to know, that it is a crime against anyone to be assaulted,
and if it happens to her, to pack her bags and leave after the first slap.
I want her to love music and art as I do.
It is a way for her to see the world through the eyes and words of another.
I want her to know that bigotry and hatred are unacceptable behavior.
I want her to enjoy and understand the differences in the people of the world,
and not to judge someone because they appear different from her.
Black, white, fat, thin, tall, short.
Learning that we are all different, but all bleed red,
EARLY in her life, is probably the foundation to all of the above.
The two things I want most for her in life...
First, to have common sense.
Second... to love.
To simply be able to love.

I feel I must also add this, as this seal has grown and is on many websites. Along with the applications, come comments that need to be addressed:
"I am not a mother and hope I qualify."
"I don't have a daughter, I have boys. The Creed is written only for girls"
The creed above is not all about being a mother, it is about being a Woman. The Woman who YOU are to yourself, and how you present yourself to the world. Straight, gay, bi-sexual, black, white, and all the hues inbetween, make us who we are. Healthy, handicapped, working or at home, we ARE the women of the world.
It is not about having daughters, but is about ALL children. Any parent wants the best for their son or daughter, and the values I have written about, are what I strive for on a daily basis with my child. If I had a son, I would instill in him the basic principles of being a decent human being. Kindness, compassion, love, forgiveness, and laughter. To always look at both sides of things before making a decision, and to keep an open mind. In keeping an open mind, you say to the world, yes, I want to hear about you, I want to grow. Growth makes us Phenomenal, and a voice to be heard.
Do you agree with that?
If you do...
