What is Emotional Health????

Many people see their emotional state with resignation. They accept their short comings as their truth. They say " this is just the way I am. " or " It doesn't get any better than this." Simply believing that any emotional damage that has taken place is to be suppressed and accepted. Some believe that only wealthy people can afford professional help to sort out the pain that has cause a sphere of never ending stories. Also, many resort to spirituality as the only source of hope to change their situation by their faith. I believe the definition of emotional health is:

"Having TOTAL peace about who you are, what you are doing, and where you are going, both individually, and in relationship to those around you."

I ask you today what is emotional health to you and how do you obtain it?

Welcome

Welcome to a blog that celebrates YOU the WOMEN of every walk of life. The Sisterhood of Color Blind Women.

Definition:
Sisterhood: 1. An organization of women with a common interest, as for social, charitable, business, or political purposes. 2.Congenial relationship or companionship among women; mutual female esteem, concern, support etc... 3. Usually, the sisterhood, the community or network of women who participates in or support feminism.

As I look up the definition of sisterhood I am thinking to myself what will this gathering of women mean to one another. I am more than excited to congregate with all of you and see how different we are and what walk of life we have come from. I really know and understand the importance of support and friendship. There is something so powerful about women coming together assertively to uplift one another. Some of you are single, single with children, married, married with children and some are retired and have been there and done it all. (We love you!!) Imagine all the advice and wisdom to pass along. Imagine all the recipes for food, sickness remedies, love, patience, and understanding that could be obtained .This is clearly not place to throw on airs and flex muscles but rather a place to let your hair down and be girls again in the dorm room after cramming for finals. I invite you today to invest in yourself by investing in one another. Let us do inventory of ourselves and examine what we need and want this blog to mean to us. I thought it would only make sense to have each woman write in the comment space their opinion and perception of women and lets begin the vent session. This way we can filter and re-establish what is our birth right: intuition, nurturing love, strength, confidence, nourishment of the soul and TRUST. Ladies we will have culture, pain, happiness and a plethora of very informative information. Shall we? Let's begin our journey in being Color Blind Women of the women race.
