Virtuous...what does that even mean?!!?


A couple of weeks ago my life was changed by DANIELLE STEEL. She appeared on the View and mentioned that once we become women our only goal in life should be to become virtuous women. I don't know if she said it exactly like that, but i heard it that way. Anyway right away I had to look into this whole virtuous woman thing and to my surprise the bible came into play. In the bible it states that we are called to be virtuous wives.....but I'm modern and young and I changed that little word so that it could relate to me. (LOOk it up Proverbs 31:10-31) and in the dictionary Virtuous is defined as... an adjective ,conforming to moral and ethical principles; morally excellent; upright:2. chaste: a virtuous young person.)



How rude of me i haven't introduced myself. My name is E.I. I am 23years old. I was raised in the VALLEY(San Fernando Valley, CA) I am a total valley girl, but I've been a lot of other things along the way. I started partying around the age of 14. By partying I mean drinking....a lot.

By 16 I was getting drunk regularly.....and I was already "hooking up" with guys. Not very lady like.

I wasn't done partying yet at the age of 19 i began taking and snorting a lot of PILLS...met my druggie boy friend..

By 21 i was snorting COKE reg....still hooking up with my druggie boy friend

By 22 i was trying to stay sober...but that didn't work so I kept up my alcoholic/druggie career....and continued to hook up with boys...

By 23...I am on my virtuous path(or at least I'm aware that this is the path I want.)(still fighting lust,drugs,and party demons)

This virtuous woman journey should be interesting and new. I want to share it with young women everywhere. I lost hope at a very very young age, but thanks to D.S. I feel that I can over come all of these bad habits(or as I like to call them...little demons.)

SO young women everywhere listen up!!!! Hope you enjoy this year with me and I hope you can grow from your mistakes, but also laugh at them....don't be ashamed because it's a journey and you'll never be alone....you've got me to mess up from time to time with you...I'M ONLY HUMAN! ;)

Ciao! Ciao!

E.I.
