- because asking for what you want is okay.
- because asking for a date is about as terrifying as asking for a raise
- because asking means speaking up.
- because using your voice is the best.
- because waiting for something to come to you is not the way to get what you want
- because sometimes, the hero doesn't have a horse
I've been done with that whole "wait for what you want, it will come to you" crap for a very long time. I hate that cultural programming for girls, who then turn into women who expect that if they are good enough, or nice enough, everything they ever dreamed of will be theirs.
Nope. Sorry nice girls, sorry nice women. If you know the dreams you have - it's totally fine to go out adventuring on your own to seek it. The more you stay, waiting - the easier it is to stay waiting.
Go find your dream. Chase it. You can be nice on your adventures, but you have my permission to kick people in the shins if they get in your way.
