Ahh, yes, fighting can be a rite of passage for girls too! It's funny how IRL, the various things can come to a screeching halt after you show that you can wipe the floor with someone. Then as we grow up, we have to learn how to walk away or be willing to catch a case over some ego stuff. Granted, after you realize you can defend yourself, it resolves that burning desire of having something to prove because you already have. Then you can walk around with your head held up a little higher, and for whatever reason, it sends off this natural vibe that acts as a repellent to those who get off on messing with people. State of mind is such a powerful force, and moving through this rite of passage alters you from one state to another that you might not even have been aware of before. Sometimes I worry about those who haven't. Many times they grow up to be power-tripping individuals that get off on bullying others however they can. ~ ❤️ 🙏 ~
