No thank you

Today I saw a flurry of activity on  IG  and FB about an upcoming book.
The title hit me like a ton of bricks- FIERCE.
 

Sure, it sounds great. But can I let you in on a little secret? No Thank You.

I am tired of being fierce. Fighting battles on all fronts. Continually in the role of advocate. Always being the squeaky wheel . Rocking the boat. Fighting for rights that shouldn't have to be fought over. I don't want to be Mama Bear.

I mean, who wants to be fierce all the time? Do people think I want to or enjoy being the badass?

Hell to the No.

I do it because I have to.Not because I want to.

I want to be soft and gentle, not tough as nails.

Can anyone else relate or is it just me?
