Dear Powerful Woman,
I've been where you are. I know what it's like to have every move monitored. But, I have a secret: I cannot be controlled. And neither can you.
Your ideas and values cannot be controlled. They are special and unique - use them as often as you can. Those ideas and values are what makes you, you. It's what makes you tick, what makes you desirable, and sometimes, what makes you hated. But, that just means that you had an effect on someone - either positive or negative - and that's okay. Any emotion means you're making a difference; you're striking a chord. Do not let others control your ideas and values. That would be like them controlling what makes you special.
The way you see the world cannot be controlled. The world is your oyster - grab it, use it, live it. Adventure is out there waiting for you in this big, opportune world. Don't let the fear control you and don't let the fear of someone else control you either. Take that hike, plunge into the ocean, do whatever you want to do - remember, you are a force of nature that cannot be contained.
Who you choose as companions cannot be controlled. You choose your friends for a reason - if you want to be with them, then be with them. If they're healthy for you, spend time with them. Keep in contact with them and don't take into account what other people think of your bond. If they're in your life, they're there for a reason. Keep them there if you want to and don't let anyone sway that decision.
How you communicate can only be controlled by you. Only you have the power to say what you want, when you want, and how you want. Your words are your words, your actions are your actions, and your outlook on life is your outlook on life. Don't let anyone stop you from communicating the way that you aim to - how you talk and act is under your control only. Make sure to do it well and confidently.
How you react can only be controlled by you. Only you have the power to react angrily, happily, or any other way. If something makes you angry, act that way by your own free will. If you feel happy, only you can control how you behave. Make your reactions appropriate, genuine, and worthwhile. They are yours for a reason.
How you love can only be controlled by you. Only you can control who you love and how you love. Others can pressure you and try to take the lead, but ultimately, you are the only one who can determine what love is to you. Make it good, your love should not be given out half-heartedly.
You, dear woman, are an amazing person with amazing emotions and an amazing and captivating heart. Do not let anyone take away your willpower, your sense of self, or your voice. You are important. You are strong. You cannot be controlled.
