Strong, Independent Woman


I was small, weak, and relied on people.

I was frail, scared, and didn't know my place.

I am now big, strong, and don't rely on people.

I am now independent, confident, and know my place.

My mind was wild, couldn't focus, and always working slow.

My speaking was terrible, sloppy, and no one could understand me.

My mind is now in control, can focus better, and works fast.

My speaking will always need improvement.

But, people can understand me.

I can talk slow and it's not mumble.
