when you’re a woman who’s both tough and soft:
You are a tough woman. Tough, simply because of your female identity. Because that is the skin you were born into, the label you’ve self-proclaimed. Because of your steps, your smile, the way you hold your head embodies strength.
But tough does not mean you keep people at arm’s length. Tough does not mean you are selfish. Tough does not mean you are angry, or unwilling to let people in.
Tough is not synonymous with cold.
Because even as you are tough, you are equally as loving, equally as selfless, equally as soft.
