woman is like a tea bag - you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.
-Eleanor Roosevelt
I have always been intrigued by the character of women...
How most of us men underestimate their power, strength and resourcefulness..
Understand me here, not all females are women but all women are females...
This is for women, not females...
These wonderful creatures of the Most High are indispensable...
We, men, cannot operate or function perfectly without them...
No man, except Adam, came to this world but through a woman...
Only a woman can give birth to a child. There is no dispute over that....
Science has evolved by bounds and leaps over the course of time but it has not crossed this particular hurdle...
The saying that behind or beside every successful man there is a woman comes to mind here...
Every man who has scaled the walls of success has had a woman helping him from behind the scenes...
There is always a woman somewhere praying for, crying for or because of, hustling on behalf of, wishing well or missing a man...
There is no man out there that is not loved, prayed for or cared for by at least one woman...
Even if the whole world hates a man, he can be assured of his mother's love...
Women are mentally stronger than men by far... I decoded this long time ago...
A woman can go through forty heartbreaks in a lifetime and not only survive but stay hopeful of a perfect forty one...
A man hardly survives one...
A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars....
If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman...
Women have to constantly deal with a lot of issues emotionally, physically and spiritually...
Still they handle them with class and ease...
The things women deal with on a daily basis are things that require divine wisdom and strength..
From menstrual pains, in-laws, pregnancy, childbirth, taking care of the home/kids, diaper changes, sleepless nights after childbirth, breastfeeding, post natal blues to early morning indomie and school runs...
Only a woman hears a child’s cry and knows exactly what the child wants...
A woman is the ultimate multi-tasker; she can do five different things at the same time and she’ll still be sane enough to handle her responsibility as a wife, mother, sister, daughter and career woman...
Most times she is the first to wake up and the last to go to bed...
A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets...
She may stay in a marriage simply to please her family, custom or tradition for sixty years without ever showing remorse...
A man can hardly survive sixty minutes without contemplating an exit covertly or otherwise...
Only a woman cries herself to sleep at night then embraces her kids in the morning with a hug and a smile..
A woman carries the burden of family without expectation that someone will feel her pain or cry her tears...
We men are spoiled by women and we take that for granted...
There is hardly a time a man is not loved genuinely by a woman...it's always your mother, your wife, sisters or daughters...
There are times that men ONLY love themselves...
I can go on and on and on....
So if you are reading this, wherever you are, stop whatever you are doing...
Visit or call the women in your life and tell them how appreciative you are of all the things they do...and how sorry you are...and mean it.
Start with your mother, if she's still alive. And if she's not, pray for her until the day you die...
I hope that my daughters grow up empowered and never define themselves by the way they look but by qualities that make them intelligent,
strong, caring and responsible women.
To all the women in the house, I appreciate you all!
