I want them to pay attention to the things and people that make their hearts happy, but more so the people because they are the ones they need to keep in their lives. I am not writing this book to make anyone guilty or stand in front of a judge! This is not a book written to make anyone feel guilty or feel like they are standing before a judge.

LET’S TALK LADIES, LET’S TALK!!!

**********

Firstly, we have to ask ourselves ‘Who is a WOMAN?’

A woman is a female person who is given the unique power to play a significant role in life. Her silence does not mean she has nothing to say, it is because a millions things are running through her mind. When she stares at you, she is wondering why she loves you so much, in spite of being taken for granted. And when she says “I will stand by you”, she will stand by you like a solid rock.

A woman is someone you should never hurt nor take for granted. To share something with you, here is a very touching story by one woman:

Someone once asked this woman: ‘are you an employed woman, or a housewife?’ and she responded: “Yes, I’m a full–time working housewife. I work 24 hours a day. I’m a mom. I’m a wife. I’m a daughter. I’m a daughter-in-law. I’m an alarm clock. I’m a cook. I’m a maid. I’m a teacher. I’m a waitress. I’m a nanny. I’m a nurse. I’m a handywoman. I’m a security officer. I’m a counsellor. I’m a comforter. I don’t get a day off. I work through all day and all night. I’m on call all hours, but sadly I get paid with the question: “what do you do all-day?”

A woman has a very unique character, much like salt! Her presence is never remembered, but her absence makes all the difference, leaving things tasteless. Nothing in life is worth fighting for. Your best clothes are someone else’s rags, and your account balance is someone else’s donation at a charitable function. Every single sex-worker you see in a hotel or in the street at night was at some point in time a virgin. Life is too short and small for anyone to feel bigger or better than anybody else.

“We’re all naked to death,” Steve Jobs once said. “Nothing can save us from it”.

I hate seeing people who brag and boast about beauty, wealth, intelligence, or even a level of education, fame, and material possessions. There is nothing you have achieved in life that no one else cannot get or still won’t get. The office you occupy today was occupied by someone else yesterday, and it will be occupied by another person tomorrow. There is only one thing that is worth bragging about, and that is LIVING YOUR LIFE IN GOD ALMIGHTY!

Always remember that, those people you trampled upon on your way up the ladder will be the same ones you are likely to pass on your way down. So, do not cause any problem for others or make life unbearable for them based on the virtue of your position, because if you do so, they will become your very problem one day.

It is time to realise that you can be the woman you want to be, and that becoming her is as simple as making the decision to.

Can you imagine what your life would be like if you were no longer available for the struggle? If you retired from the idea of perfection and decided to fully and wholeheartedly be yourself and, even better, love yourself? Imagine stopping to put your happiness in the hands of others, and stopping to wait for validation from external forces, and you becoming intimate with your failures, cellulites, successes, wrinkles, imperfections and vulnerability. Can you imagine what life would be like if you just decided to feel good now?

The world is nothing without us, women. The world would come to an end without us, women.

You change your house.
You leave your family.
You build a home with love, you get pregnant (Pregnancy changes your body)
You get fat.
You almost give up in the labour room due to the unbearable pain of child birth.

Until the day you die, just know that, everything you do – from cooking, cleaning your house, taking care of your parents, bringing up your children, earning, advising, ensuring that a person can be relaxed, maintaining all family relations, everything that benefit you – sometimes at the cost of your own health, hobbies and beauty, IT IS NOT EASY BEING A WOMAN!
