Lisis,
This post comes at a great time. I have been yearning for my family lately and found out they have been yearning for me too. I had a good heart to heart with my mom the other day about hardships and feelings and unloading and we both balled our eyes out. Female emotional support can be so cathartic. Sometimes few words need to be said -it’s the look in the eyes or the tone of voice that let’s you know they understand and are there for you no matter what. Female creatures are amazing. I agree it is hard to be a Woman. Reminds me of the lyrics in the song-Woman, best sung by Peggy Lee-”I am woman-W-O-M-A-N. I bring home the bacon and fry it up too.” and she goes on about how she does all this life work with “grace” and get’s up to do it all again the next day. It has become one of my milestone songs as a woman.
Love the picture too!
Your neices and sisters have a great friend in you! Me too!
I know what you mean. And I really don’t want us to come off as man-haters or anything crazy like that. Believe me, I adore my two guys! I just was feeling a Bond, with a capital B, with other women for some reason.
Lately I have “met” some amazing women on LiveJournal and twittermoms that really brought it home to me that women are SOME KIND of wonderful creature. Although it was tough for me being a teenage girl, I am loving being a woman.
So, take heart, young ladies: it gets better. One day, even those “mean girls” will probably be there for you in your times of trouble.
Thanks, Chandra!
hmmm…
It seems to me that this post was written by a thoughtful “female human being.”
Perhaps the best thing you can do for your nieces is continue to be an example of just that.
Hi, Michael! I sure do appreciate your comment and I’ll do my very best for the girls.
Thanks!
Hi,
Rightly said all humans are equal.Even Simone de Beauvoir commented that women are not born women.They born as human beings but they are brought up as woman.It is their ‘fecundity’ feature made them women by a mechanism of continuous socio-historical process.
They have immense power within themselves that can make or break anything.But, in general,the problem lies in the fact they act or react in extremes.Normally they lack the ‘serene balance’.
thanks for a nice post.
regards
If you are a man, take another look at your wife, girlfriend, mother, daughter, or sister and try to appreciate what it takes to be her. Most likely, she does a lot; she gives a lot. And all she wants in return is to be noticed, and appreciated. Is that so much to ask?
WOW!! Very powerful words…
I loved your post – Thanks for being authentically YOU.
