40 things every woman should know
Sunday November 09, 2008
Subject: 40 THINGS EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW!!!
1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. 2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. 3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind about a man's character, leave him alone. 4. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache. 5. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. . 6. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy. 7. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. 8. Have faith in God regarding your relationship, but don't let faith make you stupid. God does things decent and in order. 9. Don't settle. 10. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. 11. The only person you can control in a relationship is you. 12. There's only one 'reason' a man dumps you; he doesn't want you. 13. Always put yourself and your happiness first. 14. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up. 15. Like from the show Sex and the City, if he doesn't call, he just isn't that interested. 16. Know when to cut the cord, don't be strung along 17. Don't fall for the "I'm confused role". Remove yourself from the situation to let him figure things out (but don't wait for him, move on). 18. If you want to have a clue as to how he will treat you, watch how he treats the WOMEN in his family (not just mom). 19. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less. 20. Actions speak louder than words. 21. Never let a man define who you are. 22. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you. 23. Just because he says he loves you, doesn't mean that he won't hurt you and it doesn't mean that you are meant to be with him. 24. Know that you deserve to be the number one person in the life of the #1 person in your life. 25. Love is a verb. 26. Learn to give up your lifelong task of trying to make someone unavailable-available, someone ungiving-giving, and someone unloving-loving. 27. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you. 28. If you don't love self...you can't love anyone else. 29. You cannot mend someone else's broken heart 30. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage...deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship. 31. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.. 32. NEVER give more in a relationship than you are getting out of it. 33. When actions and words conflict, believe the actions. Respond to the actions. 34. Don't fall for the "I'm not the loving type"...when a man loves you there is nothing in this world (within reason) that he wouldn't do for you. 35. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him he takes it for granted.. 36. When it's time to let go; let go. 37. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others. 38. Never believe a man that tells u he want to be with you, while he's with someone else, - if he wanted to be with you, he would make it happen more sooner than later. 39. Don't be a man's door at , make him open the door for you, because a real man would do this on his own. 40. There is someone out there worthy to be in your life, let out the trash so he can come in.
The Wooden Bowl

The Wooden Bowl
A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law and four-year old grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about father," said the son. "I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating and food on the floor." So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl! When the family glanced in Grandfather's direction, sometimes he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making son?" Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work. The words so struck the parents so that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the husband took Grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled. I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life." I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch - holding hands, a warm hug or just a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that you should pass this on to everyone you care about. You know.......I just did. |
