...wars...


Try to leave a light on when I’m gone

Even in the daylight, shine on

And when it’s late at night you can look inside

You won’t feel so alone


Light On. David Cook


A mother is not the stongest. They say women are strongest when they become mothers. When they have a child to look after, when they will do anything to protect the one born out of her.

Yes, a mother is strong. She is strong because her young needs her. But a child has a life of his own. He will go on from there and fulfil his destiny. He is born out of her but his life remains his alone. There comes a time when he has to be responsible for all he has done.


A woman, before she becomes a mother, needs to be a wife, a partner, a soulmate.

A woman is strongest when she becomes a wife. Because she has relished her rights to cry when she wants to, she has taken a path that should have no turning point, just the road towards light.

A woman is strongest when she makes the man that stands beside her, stonger and better than she can ever imagine. Stronger than herself, better than he can ever achieve on his own and with any other. A bigger man. Someone that can continue to be who he is, to become best, to acheive more even when she is not around.


I once commended that Padmé Amidala is weak... I must confess, I only watch very little of the movies, missing the much vital Revenge of the Sith because I hate to watch something when I know how it will turns out...bad

I was told, in shock by fans that she is one of the strongest lady seen. She is powerful and calm, a queen, with immense control.

Yes, she is powerful but to me, she is not seen as strong, now that I have seen the Revenge of the Sith. She is far from that when she is in love. Her love for Anakin is not strong enough for him to carry on with life when she dies. She cannot live her children's lives for them but she isn't even strong enough to live her life for them. Her death separates them. There are countless possibilities if she has been strong enough to stop Anakin from his road to darkness, if she had the will to live on for her babies and train them well, if she can still pull Anakin back into light with hope.


A woman is strongest when she makes the man better than he is. And a woman must be that before she becomes a mother.
