Another Woman

Teshima Watson · Wednesday, June 14th 2006 at 1:17PM · 219 views
at some point in her career, every woman has shared
challenges with another woman
down the hall
up the street
in a corner office
three thousand miles away.

at some point in her career, every woman has needed
to compete with another woman
to fight on the behalf of another woman
to place her trust in another woman
to interview another woman

at some point in her career, every woman has needed
another woman to trust with her children
to remind her of who she used to be
to be a role model without ever knowing it
to listen

at some point in her career, every woman should tell her story.
not for her, but for another woman not so different from herself.

change begins with understanding
understanding begins with conversation.

I got this from the June 2006 edition of DiversityInc. Just thought I would pass it on.

I really think it was a good idea to post this. I feel that us as women need words such as these, because women need to look after each other. We need to stop hatting on one another and empowering each other.
