Sorry- bring me a fresh horse!

There is this woman, Eden Riley, she writes Eden Land and she is all kinds of awesome. The kind of woman that we need more of, strong and powerful and loud and smart. The kind of woman that you want to shine a light on for your daughters and say, "here is a woman that has been kicked in the guts more times than you can imagine and yet look at what she has done, what she has become". Eden is awesome. She has a meme




and I am joining in today.


I am sorry for not believing in myself.

I am sorry letting too many opportunities and too many years go by.
I am sorry for letting what other people think become too important.
Sorry for saying fuck too often.
Sorry I don't want to conform, it's too hard and too boring and I can't keep up.
Sorry for not being the ideal mum, I'm working on being as good as I can be.
Sorry for not writing or returning calls.
Sorry, I really don't care that my house is messy, I have better things to do, like hug my kids.
Sorry, I think homebirth should be legal and encouraged for those able to do so.
Sorry, I love shoes and fashion and it doesn't fit with the hippy homebirthing thing, too bad.
Sorry for not being who you think I should be.
Sorry, I am who I am and I WILL be proud of me.

And finally, I am sorry I didn't find Eden sooner!
