A Woman Should ...


A WOMAN SHOULD  HAVE ..one old love she can imagine going back to.. and one who reminds her how far she has come...

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she never wants to or needs to...   

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

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..a youth she's content to leave behind...   

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age... 


A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE  ...a set of screwdrivers, cordless drill, and a black lace bra...  

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE  ..one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry... 

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE  ...a good piece of furniture  not  previously owned by anyone else in her family.. 

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE  ...eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored..  

A  WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...a feeling of control over her  destiny... 

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW. ..how to fall in love without losing herself... 

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW... ..how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship... and  how to change a tire!!!!!!! 


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW... when to try harder... and when to walk away...

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

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over... 

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...what she would and wouldn't do for love or more... 

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW..how to live alone... even if she  doesn't like it... 

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...     

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

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW... what she can and can't accomplish in a day.. a month...and a year...

AWESOME post, Nitebyrd!

LOVED. IT.

And actually, this is a great list that anyone could learn something from.

Oh boy, there are so many on this list that I think are flawless, however this one, for me, is stellar....

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

Amen!

Thanks for sharing, Sis!

Really enjoyed! Have a great weekend!

Wise words indeed. I'll make a note of these if I may, and pass them on to anyone who might benefit from them!

ZomBee said...

Ooohh.. I dig that list.

wendy said...

good things to know for sure. I could say, well, to probably a little over half of them

and Yes, I did return to an old love (as in number 1)

Ron ~ It is a damn good list, not just for women. A friend sent it to me in an email. I really thought it contained great advice.

FC ~ Thanks. Yes, I think some of them are very helpful.

ZomBee ~ Me,too! Thanks!

Wendy ~ You did, didn't you! Proves that it definitely is a good list! LOL

Akelamalu said...

All good advice! ;)

nitebyrd said...

Akelamalu ~ Isn't it though! I wish I'd get more emails like this one and less of the "enlarge your penis" kind! LOL

CrystalChick said...
