This is a truth-filled piece. Gave me goosebumps reading it. It is a tragedy what the world has twisted womanhood into. So grateful for the lives I've carried. It has been my greatest joy in life.

Anyways thanks Keeley whoever you are

The sooner we venerate the life-giving force of nature, in all its forms—including the life-giving power of women—the closer we come to realizing our full potential as human beings.
