I LOVE Her cuz SHE GOT HER OWN

The independent woman. When it's done correctly, it's a good look. But when it's not...it looks foolish.

There's many things that can classify as so call independence. Society says it's a woman who has her own, carries herself confidently and does not need anyone to make shit happen. She's bad...in a real good way.

However, along the way, the truth has been misconstrued, misconceptions have taken form of reality and the independent woman got lost. Lost behind makeup, nice cars and hairstyles that say they don't need nobody to give them shit. Independence that says my outfits are as obnoxious as me, and yes...all the women hate me because they're not me.

And in reality...it's their man/woman, or their parents or perhaps welfare that is the reason they are independent.

Confused.

See because I thought independence meant you stand on your own, for you...because that's just what grown women do. No disrespect, but if you're under someone elses' roof, eating their food and it's their money that's going to the Koreans for your colorful acrylics...ummmmmmmm.....Let's just say you've gotten caught up in the hype that says that independence is a look.

Yes, love...you're not independent. And a man may have you believing it, your girls may have you thinking you achieving it...but you're not independent.You look fly, nice car and you keeping the weave tight...but if he left you today could you survive? And if your momma's menopause put your ass out on the streets, could your independence find you a place to stay?

See a real independent woman don't have to say it. It shows. She carries her achievements in proud silence, because she made them happen herself. And if she ever so often she feel the need to prove it, it's probably a figment of her imagination.

Love,
Vee
