I want to be capable but I also want to build something with someone where we rely on each other, that's not weakness to me 😊

My faith shows me examples of women who were strong precisely because they understood their role in God's design, not in spite of it. They weren't trying to do everything themselves - they were working in harmony with their partners. And honestly that sounds more appealing to me than this exhausting modern idea that you have to be completely self-sufficient to have value! I can cook, I can manage a home, I can support someone else's dreams while pursuing my own... these are skills I'm proud of, not things to hide 💭 Sometimes I feel like I'm supposed to apologize for wanting a traditional dynamic but why should I?

It's what feels right to me, what aligns with my beliefs, what I genuinely want. Not because someone forced me to want it but because I've thought about it deeply and this is my choice.
