Feminine Mystique

Life has put me through experiences that opened up my eyes on how complex the aspects of a woman’s life can be. One thing I have learned through all those years is that a woman often becomes a victim of her own passions. There are many facets to a woman’s life. No matter how she loved and was loved, she often falls into crossroads of choices, which may turn her life to ideal or worse.

Women are emotional creatures, although some may not show it, they are. As defined by their experiences, they are molded by their experiences, intellect and relations into the character that they became. Their caring nature often clashes with their convictions about how to lead their lives. While some seems to breathe success after standing long hours and compromising feminine duties in charging towards her pursuits, some may fall behind, happily caring for the family and love, which she believe to define the essence of her very existence. 

 The thing is, no woman has no story. A woman’s heart, a woman’s life is a deep well of mystery, which only a patient man can unravel, discover and embrace.

“If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don’t, they never were.”

surprises surprises...hmmmm!

Now's the time

For so long, I have been relying on other people to tell me how to fix my life. I have been waiting on that one person to complete me and give me the reassurance I needed to straighten up my life. I thought I can rely on people, I thought I needed to be taken cared for. But now I realized that I have been doing all those things for other people but myself. I am left hanging, waiting and postponing things in my own life, and for what? It is time to make up my own mind. It is time to do things my way. It is time to for me to hold on to my own steering wheel and lead the way. I can do this, I know I can. I am capable, I am strong and I can do it. Just a few months more, I will sure do it this time. I want my son to be proud of me and I will never disappoint him, not this time.

Enough

“When a man gives up, a woman can coax him to go on and change his mind, but when a woman says enough, that means the end…”

In all the interesting experiences in your life, you certainly have encountered situations where you are close to giving up or you are torn between giving up an going on. Life is defined by our choices. Sometimes, we choose to bear some more and still give chance to everything we face. At times, we simply say, “that’s it, I am done”.

But between men and women, contrary to the common belief, in things like this, women are never fickle minded. They are more resilient and even more flexible in terms of bearing with life’s situations. Amidst the hurt surrounding her relationship, physical or emotional, she may still decide to stand up for her man thinking that all is worth it. But while women have flexible tolerance, when they say enough, it means enough. You have reached her limits. No extensions and no other chances.

Suffering enough is enough chance given to any man to make up for everything he has done, for every wrong and every hurt. But once that chance it abused, there’s no turning back.

A Mother's Day Tribute

Hello everyone, with all my article assignments leaning on the special celebration of mother's day, I have decided the best materials I found. I hope all mothers out ther would enjoy these...



MORE THAN A MOTHER

When God set the world in place,
when He hung the stars up in space,
when He made the land and the sea,
then He made you and me.

He sat back and saw all that was good,
He saw things to be as they should.
Just one more blessing He had in store;
He created a mother, but whatever for?

He knew a mother would have a special place
to shine His reflection on her child's face.
A mother will walk the extra mile
just to see her children smile.
She'll work her fingers to the bone
to make a house into a home.

A mother is there to teach and guide,
a mother will stay right by your side.
She'll be there through your pain and strife,
she'll stay constant in your life.

A mother will lend a helping hand
until you have the strength to stand.
She'll pick you up when you are down,
when you need a friend she'll stick around.

A mother is one who listens well,
will keep her word; will never tell.

A mother never pokes or pries
but stands quietly by your side,
giving you the strength you need,
encouraging you to succeed.

A mother is one who can be strong
when you need someone to lean on.

You're more than a mother to me;
a reflection of Him in your face I see,
a love that knows no boundaries.

I'm glad that you chose to be
all this and more to me.
You share a love that knows no end,
you're more than my mother,
you are my friend.

decoding a woman

As I have said before, I have this friend that is fond of forwarding text messages which I look forward to reading every day. This one is very timely for it aims to prevent leaving men in the cold when it comes to having arguments with their women, especially with the love virus that’s looming over us during this love month. While ladies’ thoughts are quite complicated to decode (well actually, most of the time), here are some tools to help men really understand what their partner means. So to keep your hot date, better read this MON…

When a woman says FINE, she intends to finish or end the argument. This also means she really feels that she is right and you need to shut up and take it…period.

When she tells 5 MINUTES, she actually means to say 30 minutes MINIMUM. Well, a woman need to take time fussing over her looks right? Otherwise, she wouldn’t be that ‘hot’ for you.

When everything seems not okay and not right and you ask her and she says “NOTHING”, that’s what you should fear. Usually, NOTHING is the calm before the storm. This actually means SOMETHING that should keep you on your toes. Arguments that start from NOTHING usually end up with FINE…

When you asked her permission about anything like if you could go somewhere with somebody or when you ask her about something that you need to suddenly arrange, her responding “GO AHEAD” is definitely not a good thing. This is actually a dare on you as it literally means DON’T DO IT (usually, GO AHEAD means so if it comes with the lady’s face contorting or twitching into a disgruntled form).

If you are now on a heated argument and she gives her LONG SIGH, give it up man. This means that she already thinks you’re an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time arguing with you about something that actually DOES NOT MATTER ANYMORE…ouch!!!

And lastly, here is the classic. THAT’S OKAY. When you start apologizing and promising to make up for whatever is needed to be settled between you two, having your woman say “THAT’S OKAY” is never okay. It actually means that she wants to think long and hard before she decides on how or when you will pay for your mistakes. In some cases, this basically buys her time before to she brings forth her scorn…absolutely true!

So go on and start doing things right. For the right girl, all the trouble is worth it anyway…
