I showed up ready because I am tired of only meeting the criteria, saying that I am going for more and settling every time. Oh, but I said I would never settle but isn't that what you do when you're okay with the bare minimum? I am a woman who is not afraid to do it alone. I am not afraid to step on your toes, I am not afraid to take what's offered, on my own. If you don't want it, I do. I have been taken for granted, I have been left to fail but didn't. I have been searching long enough to know that there's a place for anybody, anywhere. Good or bad. I am both street and book smart. I stand up for myself, I stand behind and beside myself. I would love your assistance, but not when I am busy. When I say I am alone; God is never far from me. I do not need your sympathy. I do not need your company ... I chose to come, alone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46387460604055,"sku":"9781304352767","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781304352767.webp?v=1768793334","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/i-showed-up-ready-this-time-revised-edition-2025-9781304352767","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
