A song written for the singer’s daughters:

Girls, you were born to run
To reach the stars and chase the sun
Girls, you are wild and free
The wind is at your back, the world is at your feet

Hope you always know your worth
Though I know that life can hurt
Hope you know that you can turn to each other
Hope the road ahead is clear
And I hope you know when I'm not here
That you'll always have the love of your mother

Also here's some beautiful tribal music about the amazons of Greek Mythology.



I always found it interesting that a society as patriarchal as Ancient Greece created the legendary tribe of lady warriors who fought with just as much courage and pride as the male soldiers of Ancient Greece.

I'm currently reading The Iliad and there's a part in the story where the amazons come to aid the Trojans and are led by their queen Penthesilea. After she was slain by the hero Achilles I think it was implied that he took pity on the beautiful Queen of the Amazons and wanted to bury her with respect but another soldier named Thersites taunts him and defiles the queen's body, causing an angered Achilles to kill him...

Too relatable:

What a terrible life for a woman
Who just wants to be left alone
What a horrible world for all of the girls
Getting cat called as their walking home
With keys in her hand
You don’t understand what she’s had to do to get here
What a beautiful life for a woman
Who knows what she’s worth and knows why she’s here.

What a pretty distraction
They told her to cover up her shoulders
Cause the boys couldn’t focus
Maybe they should teach him
To control his own actions
But that’s not what happens

I was told something similar by an elder in my former church with some inappropriate and unnecessary commentary about my body. That elder made his daughter wear baggy clothes. That did wonders for her self-esteem.

"The Samurai's Virtue" by Peter Gundry.



If you'll notice this is a Japanese onna-bugeisha or onna-musha weilding a naginata (a curved spear often associated with the proud lady warriors of Japan).
