Woman of God

Semalem aku and temen-temen komsel WB alias Wanita Bijak abis adain Christmas Dinner bareng di restoran Carnivor, Sunter Icon.. bagus tempatnya.. but penuh perjuangan banget buat ke sana, soalnya kemaren Jakarta macet parah plus ujan gede.. Tadinya mo mulai ngumpul jam 7, eh kita malah baru sampe jam 9 malem! haha.. But luar biasanya, semua tetep hadir, bahkan lengkap :)

Selain makan bareng, kita juga saling tukeran kado and dapet banyak gifts tambahan dari pembina kita, ci Maria.. Pokoknya full of food and presents! hehe.. Nah, salah satunya ada gulungan kertas yang isinya statements about woman, yang mo aku share di sini nih.. Tadi pagi aku abis baca lagi, and bener-bener jadi kekuatan :) Hope u'll be blessed!

Dear: Marcella Flaorenzia

When I stopped being doubtful & learned how to wait;

That's when I became a Woman of Faith.

When I stopped being angry & my calm increased;

That's when I became a Woman of Peace.

When I stopped feeling depressed & was able to cope;

That's when I became a Woman of Hope.

When my sorrow ceased & my smile wasn't destroyed;

That's when I became a Woman of Joy.

When I stopped being weak & kept fear at arms length;

That's when I became a Woman of Strength.

When I fell out of favor & was put in my place;

That's when I became a Woman of Grace.

When I stopped hating my self & felt an embrace from above;

That's when I became a Woman of Love.

When I stopped being silent & my voice began to raise;

That's when I became a Woman of Praise.

When I let go of old ways & a new path I began to trod;

That's when I became a Woman of God.

With Love,

Maria Lestari
