    Each person is blessed with their own thoughts, actions, and opinions. Putting that voice and opinions into action is so important in expressing your thoughts. Sitting back and letting others be in control of what goes on in your life, directly or indirectly, is no way to go through life. I was taught to share what was on my mind and never hold anything back. Some know how to take that and others do not. Expressing your true thoughts, or “not having a filter”, is an amazing thing. Having a personal voice and direct say on the events in your life is crucial. You have the power to control your future. By standing up for what you believe in or just saying what’s on your mind gives you that much more control over the outcome. Be your own advocate.

    I feel men do have a role in the struggle for women’s equality. Men at certain points in time are the reason we lack equality. Men often see themselves as our superiors and everything a woman does is to serve a man, as if they are a “blessing” in OUR lives. According to the christian bible, woman was created from man. But isn’t new life created from a woman’s body? Yes, there are some things that are more suited for a man just as there are certain things better suited for a woman but that in no way means the gender roles can’t be reversed or shared. Men need to stop seeing themselves as the rulers and more as an equal. “Anything you can do, I can do”. Anything a man can do, so can a woman.
