You Are The Reason, Yet You Don’t Seem To Know

“O woman! Lovely woman! Nature made thee to temper man: we had been brutes without you.” Thomas Otway

You talk about men in your chit chat. You share information about men that you know nothing about. But you don’t even realize we can’t live without you.

Dear lady, without you, some men won’t even brush their teeth; the reason we wake up and go to work every day is because of you or one of you. We buy good shoes and wear nice suits because of you or one of you. We fight and quarrel because of you. Some men even do shady deals because of you. We wear perfumes because of you. We do stuff (sometimes, unprintable stuff) because of you. Yet, you are the ones that get dumped because you allow us. Some of you don’t even know the powers that you have hence we take advantage of you.

Your emotional make-up is so complex that we can never understand you yet you think we are the complex ones. Some of you have been conditioned (by society or customs) to see the man as the super being, whereas you are the super one. Have you forgotten what the dreads-wearing musician, Shaggy sang the other time? Remember Strength of a woman? He sings:

“So amazing how this world was made/I wonder if God is a woman/…she puts a smile upon your face/and takes you to the highest place/so don’t you underestimate/strength of a woman.”

Yet you don’t seem to recognize your powers. You allow men to take you for granted, use you, and then dump you, instead of making them ‘eat from your hands.’

With this little contribution of mine (that is, if you keep following this blog and sign up for the free newsletters), I urge you dear lady, to take your rightful place and exercise the powers that you have.

Let me end with this piece from Joyce Meyer, the renowned U.S televangelist*

“God created man first – but quickly discovered he needed a helper. Not a slave, but a helper. He created a woman from one of Adam’s ribs and called her Eve. Note that Eve was taken from Adam’s side – from something close to his heart – not the bottom of his feet. Women were never intended to be walked on, disrespected, bullied, or belittled. Eve was created because Adam needed her. God said Adam was not complete without her. It’s the same today. Men need women, and they need them to be more than a cook, housekeeper, sex partner, or baby-making machine.”

Culled from the book, ‘The Confident Woman’ by Joyce Meyer
