"When you are perceived as a strong woman it is assumed that you do not need anything or anyone. You can bear everything; and will overcome whatever happens. You are looked upon to help carry burdens and when you share yours its labeled as negative.
She is not asked if she is tired, suffering or falling; or if she has anxiety or fear.
The strong woman is not forgiven for anything. If she loses control, she becomes weak. If she loses her temper, she becomes hysterical.
When a strong woman disappears for a moment, it is immediately noticeable, but when she is there, her presence is unappreciated.
The strength that is needed every day to be that kind of woman, is not noticed.
Honor, recognize, respect and thank the strong women in your life, because they also need to be loved and feel that they can rest."

Way to go 🫶❤️Elizabeth
A horse rider who recently turned 100 has no intention of hanging up her reins.

Elizabeth Breton, from Cirencester, first took to the saddle at just two years old and celebrated her milestone birthday with champagne, a party, and a card from King Charles.

Although riding is “part of her DNA,” Ms. Breton took a 30-year break before returning to the sport in her 70s, eventually competing for several years.

Now a centenarian, she remains committed to her weekly visits to Cotswold Riding Stables, saying she “came to life” when she got back in the saddle—and she has no plans to stop.

✨️Your life is going to be messy at points✨️

By pretending to be someone else you’ll attract people you don’t like and you won’t attract the people you’d really like to be around. People will sometimes misunderstand you and misrepresent you.

People will form their own opinion and idea of you, no matter how clearly you present yourself. It’s best to learn who you really are and just be yourself and be with people who love you for who you are, not for the impression of you that you might have created.

It’s best not to compromise yourself to ‘fit in’ and best not to spend time with people you feel you have to impress. It’s always best to be yourself.
