My concept of feminism in a nutshell.

"Real feminism is defined by women who can, and do, take care of themselves. Real feminists don’t look for a Prince Charming to rescue them, and they don’t look for a handout. That sort of entitlement mentality hurls women back several decades, when it was expected that someone else (a man) would pay their way. Liberal feminism has morphed into a laughable movement filled with harpies who hold up signs saying, “Hoes before embryos” while defining themselves entirely by their “lady parts.” We, on the other hand, define ourselves by our character, our passions, our loves, our strengths, our abilities and our successes." Source: https://www.facebook.com/constitutionalist.conservative?hc_location=stream

I'll add that feminism is about choices, not predestination. It's not your life's work as a woman to take care of anyone unless you choose to do so (unless you've already made the choice to bring a child into the world, and in that case, step up girlfriend). If you do make that choice, you are embarking on something that requires strength, perseverance, and humility. If you do not, you are embarking on something different which will require another set of skills and strengths. Still your life's work; it is not anyone's to judge but your own.

The world is your oyster. Show em' what you got!

Two months and two days to spare!

Hey y'all!

I totally posted in less than two years! Two months and two days from now is, believe it or not, my first wedding anniversary. That's right. So much has happened since I last posted. Got married, bought a house, finished my Masters degree and I'm not even on a hallucinogen - THIS ALL ACTUALLY HAPPENED!

In the process of getting married, I got a daughter! My stepdaughter Riley. Time+Love = A Blessed Life. She's going into second grade in two weeks.

 Now, if I can secure full time employment, life as I know will be totally settled. Wanna see a picture of my wedding? I knew you did! Here are picture(s).

Aside from it being just a perfect wedding... it was PUBLISHED on a wedding blog! All thanks to my beyond amazing photographers, Wanda Cavazos and Mell Bell from Richard Bell Photography. Check it out! http://alowcountrywed.com/island-house-wedding-megan-cisco/

And here is my graduation picture - a good day as well! 

So, in the last (almost) two years, life has just kept getting better. So very much to be thankful for, and to keep looking forward to! 

I think I'll start posting again. I need an outlet to put all my musings on body image. Perhaps I will start a new blog for that intent. I'll let you know.
