Imagine a woman who believes it is right and good she is woman.
A woman who honors her experience and tells her stories. Who refuses to carry the sins of others within her body and life.
Imagine a woman who believes she is good. A woman who trusts and respects herself. Who listens to her needs and desires and meets them with tenderness and grace.
Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past's influence on the present. A woman who has walked through her past. Who has healed into the present. Imagine a woman who authors her own life.
A woman who exerts, initiates, and moves on her own behalf. Who refuses to surrender except to her truest self and to her wisest voice. Imagine a woman who names her own Gods.
A woman who imagines the divine in her image and likeness. Who designs her own spirituality and allows it to inform her daily life.
Imagine a woman in love with her own body. A woman who believes her body is enough, just as it is. Who celebrates her body and its rhythms and cycles as an exquisite resource.
Imagine a woman who honors the face of the Goddess in her changing face.
A woman who celebrates the accumulation of her years and her wisdom. Who refuses to use her precious life energy disguising the changes in her body and life.
Imagine a woman who values the women in her life.
A woman who sits in circles of women. Who is reminded of the truth about herself when she forgets.
Imagine yourself as this woman.

Roland Platteau said:
Les féministes n’ont pas tort de dire que le mythe de la femme est un piédestal bâti par d’autres qu’elles (par les hommes) et que (dans le passé) on les a sommé à représenter comme étant leur être même, alors que ça ne correspond pas du tout à leur nature réelle (et c’est pourquoi elles sont devenues fausses, artificielles, comédiennes, hypocrites, s’auto-surveillent, jouent un rôle) mais tout simplement aux aspirations les plus profondes des hommes, qui les avaient cristallisées sur les objets de leurs désirs.
L’étude de ce mythe nous dit quelque chose sur les hommes, pas sur les femmes.
