"Women Empowerment Reminder of The Day. Always respect yourself as a woman. You attract what you are, so be very mindful of how you're representing yourself.

Be a woman that both women and men respect, admire, and look up to. Don't disrespect yourself by lowering your standards and accepting just anything that comes your way. It's okay to be single! If you want a relationship of substance, you can't keep entertaining people and things that mean you no good. Think about it! It's all up to you."
― Stephanie Lahart

Janie laughed at all these well-wishers because she knew that they knew plenty of women alone; that she was not the first one they had ever seen. But most of the others were poor.
