Imagine a world of refined, beautiful, classy women with updos, femininity, heels and purses.  A world of women who could do it all, everything from interior decorating, entrepreneurial work and car maintenance.

This woman is not defined by societal norms- she is not a mammy, a Jezebel, a housewife, or a just a career woman.  She is a well rounded woman of grace and dignity.  Her response is always poised and defined.  She is not afraid of challenges, feedback or correction.  She constantly reaches for higher heights and has a sense of self awareness and identity.

She does not allow her circumstances and situations to get the best of her; she has learned to laugh at life.  She enjoys beauty- the beauty of creation, the beauty of a sunset, a quiet beach, a peaceful river and a restful room.  She is not bound by the business of life; she is not intimidated by a hectic schedule.

She enjoys maintaining her appearance, yet she is convinced that the beauty residing within is what really matters eternally.  This woman can and will do it all.  She is not afraid of the Big S Word- She recognizes that Submission is a Graceful Choice.  A Choice to withhold her strength to please the desire of others.  She calls this the preference of others. 

Her Submission does not change her will or who she is, it is simply an opportunity to give others a moment of enjoyment and progression.

She is free to enjoy the pleasures of life, yet keeps them all in perspective.  She is in control of her desires and takes others into account in her choices.

She is a refined woman of class, knowing she is free to bare it all, but choosing to be graceful and appropriate in all situations.

This woman is the New 21st Century Woman- An athlete, A hero, A mother, A wife, A fashionista, and much, much more!  She is a woman of grace, of dignity and of class.

She is cute, yet strong.
Discipline, yet free.
Purposeful, yet open.
Careful, yet relaxed.
Feminine, but sporty.
She is free.

This is the New 21st Century Woman.
