Weary

Any women today didn’t choose to become “masculine” they adapted to survive. They never wanted to shoulder every burden alone or suppress their gentleness. But when leadership was absent, they stepped up. When protection was lacking, they guarded themselves. Faced with emotionally distant, inconsistent, or unreliable men, they had no choice but to find their own strength.

Her assertiveness grew from being overlooked. Her independence, from repeated letdowns. Her guarded heart, from betrayal. Yet beneath it all, she doesn’t crave constant strength she longs for rest, love, safety, and the freedom to soften. True femininity flourishes with protection and trust.

So no, she isn’t hardened just weary. Not bossy just scarred. Not difficult just healing. And the right man, He won’t fear her strength. He’ll honor the battles that shaped it and give her the peace to be gentle again.
