• in the midst of my struggles, last night's alicia keys concert was a welcomed break.
  
  one very very very talented beautiful woman!
  i was inspired and strangely comforted by her songs....
  especially when she was on the piano, her fingers can work some magic!
  
  one song in particular struck accord with a lot of the women in the audience (jina can vouch for me on this)

  superwoman - alicia keys
  
  

  Everywhere I'm turning
  Nothing seems complete
  I stand up and I'm searching
  For the better part of me
  I hang my head from sorrow
  Slave to humanity
  I wear it on my shoulders
  Gotta find the strength in me
  
  Cause I am a Superwoman
  Yes I am
  Yes she is
  Even when I'm a mess
  I still put on a vest
  With an S on my chest
  Oh yes
  I'm a Superwoman
  
  For all the mothers fighting
  For better days to come
  And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
  To come home before the sun
  And all my sisters
  Coming together
  Say yes I will
  Yes I can
  
  Cause I am a Superwoman
  Yes I am
  Yes she is
  Even when I'm a mess
  I still put on a vest
  With an S on my chest
  Oh yes
  I'm a Superwoman
  
  When I'm breaking down
  And I can't be found
  And I start to get weak
  Cause no one knows
  Me underneath these clothes
  But I can fly
  We can fly, Oooohh
  
  Cause I am a Superwoman
  Yes I am
  Yes she is
  Even when I'm a mess
  I still put on a vest
  With an S on my chest
  Oh yes
  I'm a Superwoman

  not that i am a superwoman, but before alicia sang this song she made a comment about how some days you just wake up feeling blue and nothing can really cheer you up.  then in those times, you must say to yourself what you really want to hear.  remind yourself of who you are.
  
  i really liked that.
