Every Woman should have

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE

one old love she can imagine going back to...

and one who reminds her how far she has come...

enough money within her control to move out and

rent a place of her own even if she never wants
to or needs to...

something perfect to wear if the employer or date
of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...

a youth she's content to leave behind...

a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to

retelling it in her old age...

a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a
black lace bra...

one friend who always makes her laugh...
and one who lets her cry...

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by
anyone else in her family...

eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems,
and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel
honoured..

a feeling of control over her destiny...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to fall in love without losing herself...

how to quit a job, break up with a lover,
and confront a friend without ruining the
friendship...

when to try harder... and when to walk away...

that she can't change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips, or the nature of her
parents...

that her childhood may not have been perfect...but
its over...

what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...

how to live alone... even if she doesn't like
it...

whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she
shouldn't take it personally...

where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen
table... or a charming inn in the woods...when her
soul needs soothing...

what she can and can't accomplish in a day...
a month...and a year...

Hi Lonlion,

Such good words to live by. Some of those statements remind me of how far I've come and some remind me why I'm still on this journey.

Love, Anna

Smile What a woman needs response

So much wisdom in such little space. Just a reminder from my higher power of where I have been, where I hope to be and where my journey is taking me. Thanks you for sharing this!
