A Woman!

A Woman! - A Bad Girl's Journal Edition

“… A woman must have a thorough knowledge of music, singing, drawing, dancing, and the modern languages, to deserve the word; and besides all this, she must possess a certain something in her air and manner of walking, the tone of her voice, her address and expressions, or the word will be but half-deserved…” – Jane Austen

Women are magic. Not in the silly “pull a rabbit out of a hat” kind of way, but in the way the moon pulls at the ocean — drawing out its depths, turning calm waters restless, beauty into danger, all without ever touching it. 

We are tied to the void — the space before creation, the silent forces beyond existence. We don’t just bring life into the world, we shape it, mold it, breathe the extraordinary, special, unique into the dull and ordinary.

Nevertheless, magic isn’t just something we are born with — it’s something we must refine, master, and cultivate. A woman’s greatest power lies in her knowledge — of herself, of the world, of art, music, poetry, language, movement, of human nature. 

To truly be a woman, to deserve the word, is to understand one’s beauty, strengths, weaknesses, and wield them with precision. To know when to speak, and when to stay silent. To create, to destroy, to enchant. 

The woman educated in the arts and the silent forces of nature is a woman who commands the room with just her presence. Most importantly, it is the only thing that can set her free. 

True freedom — the kind that allows a woman to be unapologetically herself — does not come from wealth, beauty, or privilege alone. 

It comes from within. It comes from sharpening her talents, expanding her knowledge, and becoming so skilled, so well-spoken, so unshakable in her presence that the world has no choice but to listen. That is what makes a woman unforgettable and unique.

As far as I could go back, I have been obsessed and fascinated by women. I remember staring at them through the TV, completely mesmerized by those beautiful, almost supernatural creatures with their otherworldly aura, talent, and allure. Hypnotized by their hair, the shoes, the nails, the bags, the clothes… Just bewitched by the madness of it all. I knew this was exactly who I wanted to be.

My world has always been entirely feminine. Honestly, what could be better than living, being, seeing life through the eyes of a creator – the divine force that brings forth and shapes life?

Now that I am a grown woman, I understand. I know these shoes, the bags, the clothes, the makeup that we wear and so adore are not just objects. They are important artifacts of a world that worships beauty and freedom.

Some might call me vain. I don’t mind…
Just don’t confuse vanity with superficiality. There is nothing superficial about a woman turning herself into art.

I admit, few things bring me more joy than adding another masterpiece to my collection of clothes, shoes, or bags. I have always been utterly infatuated with the many characters I can bring to life through art. I live to dress and get dressed. 

Like a chameleon, I do not stay one woman for long; never fixed in a single form, but fluent in every version of myself. One day femme fatale, the next a beach girl, or a woman of another world entirely.

As above, so below — so I choose to see the world through rose-colored glasses. We all get to build our own little universe, and I have chosen mine to be a Barbie World. Hot, colorful, soft, funny, wild, unpredictable, dreamy, edgy, spicy.

A world centered around art, music, poetry, movies, and fashion — full of leather, silk, perfume, high heels, singing, writing, pink cabrios… One of absolute freedom and fierce independence to be entirely me. The liberty to be as soft or as sharp as I choose. A world where I don’t just exist — I reign.

It’s a fact history has already proven: the world itself has always revolved around women. We are the muses, the creators, the masterminds, the keepers of secrets, the ones who inspire poetry and provoke the greatest war ever waged — one that begins and ends with a woman’s name.

Men built empires, sure, but who do they build them for? Who do they dream of? Who haunts them in the dark hours of the night?

Women. Always…

Thank you for reliving this moment with me!
See you next Sunday at 4.

Love, Kiki
