I am a determined woman. My passion, my confidence, my pride, that makes me a strong woman. I have fought many battles in life, whether it is a war with myself, a war of giving up my desires, or a traditional war, which I have always stood on my front to fight.
People think that I am an example for them. My deep make-up has become the hallmark of my face.
My eyes filled with kajal, erase my blood-redness. So that the world does not know my inner self. People see my movements but no one can read my inner self. Everyone sees my appearance, but my inner self is known by my Lord.
Sometimes I ask myself if I am as strong on the outside as I am on the inside. When I wash my make-up face, do I also wash my dreams and desires with this water?
Will I ever feel as strong and confident without this makeup? Will this world accept me like this?
Everyone fights external battles, but has anyone been able to fight with their inner self? Perhaps to the world I am strong, but to myself, to my inner self, I am a weak woman, who shows herself to the world as much as I want to show.
I am a weak woman but still I am always ready to face every difficulty in the world. Because I am what no one else can be.

The End

@aneukpineung78 @wakeupkitty
It is thanks to both of you that I have started expressing my thoughts freely. Honestly for this story I would like to give myself 8 out of 10 because perfection is not always good, every human being is flawed but the real bravery is in accepting it.
The one who gives up always loses and it takes dedication and hard work to reach the destination.

The world has become an inhospitable and wild place. Less responsive. More overwhelming. We just need support. Socialize, discover our true values. From the first humanity. From humility. Always learn from others. Always experience improvement, if that is the desire. My respects to all women, who are paradigms, the flowers of the soul, mothers, sisters, women. All are unique, all are extremely strong.

We learn well from others, but how do we know whether others are on the right path or not?
We cannot know the truth until we experience it ourselves
And real success comes only after learning
Well, I think that behind every success there will be piles of failures. A person climbs a ladder one by one and goes up.

The contrast between outward confidence and inner battle is something everyone can relate with because one way or another people find it hard fighting their demons within. Therapist can only do to the best of their ability by giving you a temporary comfort but the bulk of the solution lies in us.

Indeed you’re a strong woman to the world but this is a daily reminder that even the strongest have their own inner struggles they battle with.

There is no doubt that the battle of self is the most difficult battle.

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

I really like the ending. It's very different from what surrounds us in the mainstream. It's independence and true strength to admit you're weak, but that doesn't mean you're not ready to fight.

Showing yourself weak to the world is foolishness. There is a saying that "give a falling wall another push".
What do you think?
We have to strengthen ourselves to face the challenges of the world.

I won't quite agree. It all depends on how we define weakness. If we're talking about expressing one's difficulties or problems, then for me it's courage. We are human beings and we have our weaknesses and strengths. Talking about it can help us build more lasting relationships, even in our professional lives.
But sometimes you may find yourself in an environment that will actually take advantage of the weaknesses you have shown. Then it can be a real life lesson for you. You will know what to work on to strengthen yourself and face the world.
